Connect Failed: java.lang.SecurityException android ... UID 10371 / PID 18403 lacks permission

[Laroosta]

Since the new update (1.0.48) I'm unable to connect to my Garmin GLO 2 device from my Nokia 8.5 (Android 12) phone. I can still connect using my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7, though its on the older version (1.0.39).

The error appears on the notification bar: Connect Failed: java.lang.SecurityException android ... UID 10371 / PID 18403 lacks permission ...

debug log posted below

I've tried:

• restarting my Nokia device
• uninstalling/reinstalling Bluetooth GNSS app
• Clear cache and data
• Re-pairing my GLO device

Just a brief update: I rolled my Nokia 8.5 (Android 12) back to 1.0.39 and its now connecting to the GLO 2 Device. The new update seems to have broken the permissions somehow.

I then installed 1.0.48 from github release, but it does the same thing. I'll try some other versions also.

1.0.47 connects, but 1.0.48 does not.

Hello, thanks for your detailed observations and logcat extract!

As far as i remember, some android docs instructed to limit the permission as per the logcat to before android 12 (massdkver 30) in manifast which i did but the logcat mentioned it's required so i just made a new release v49 that doesnt have the maxsdkver limit in manifast - pls try and confirm, if still fail pls try uninstall and install again.

Perfect, that seemed to have fixed it!

Great to hear that!
