Firebase not working on Galaxy S7 (7.0, API 24)

[rkalz]

App refuses to download any data from Firebase as soon as iOS was implemented

Works just fine in an emulator. Appears to only be happening on my phone. Could be due to deprecated functions or API issues?

Probably unrelated to iOS deployment.

Well that's interesting. This version of Firebase can't find something in this version of the Android API.

Got rid of that error in https://github.com/rkalz/UABParkingFinderAndroid/commit/07e28b4445bab0753a66cdb3e6efc27fa438cbbb

But still doesn't work as well as it used to. Sometimes it works, but takes a long time to even run Firebase
