[BUG] Android 14 (API 34+): Foreground service types are required #85
Comments
We are also experiencing the same issue. There is a pending merge request for this by someone else, however it is hardcoding FGS type of "specialUse" which requires many hoops to explain when publishing to the Play Store. It would be ideal if we can set the FGS type string in the manifest for this package, and have the package detect and send the appropriate FGS const to the android start service call. |
@steveseguin Question, were you trying to fix this issue with your fork? Did you succeed? https://github.com/steveseguin/flutter_background |
I hacked at it until it worked. Part of the issue in my case was that I needed to explicitly request permission for display capture, and that also had to be approved by the Google reviewers. I then had conflicts between Flutter plugins, as different ones needed different versions of other dependencies, and so that took further hacking to cut out the bits of the flutter_background plugin that were causing me grief. Do a lot of testing if moving to Android 14, across a lot of devices, including Samsung. https://github.com/steveseguin/vdon_flutter - final product. The funny thing is, I have a new version written in react-native that I'm moving instead to, as I'm giving up on Flutter. This was meant to be quick hold over update, and it ended up being a big headache. |
Thanks, this is good information. I'm running from LiveKit's videoconferencing SDK and my app breaks the moment I throw Android SDK 34 at it. Haven't been able to fix it yet before the upcoming August deadline. |
We also experienced a lot of Flutter plugin breakage when updating to Android 14/SDK 34. This background things was the most pressing issue. There is a package that supposedly handles it (https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_background_service) but it's not exactly the same as flutter_background, which I prefer as it's been great for us so far. I was hoping the way flutter_background_service implemented the FGS stuff could be done for flutter_background. |
im facing this issue too. |
This should be resolved now by #89, which is part of the new 1.3.0 release. Please update to the new version and let me know, if that fixes it for you. Feel free to reopen the issue, if you still face the issue. |
im still facing this issue |
