The RN Permissions module calls this in a non-UI thread. What we observe is a
crash in ViewGroup.dispatchCancelPendingInputEvents, which is called on the
calling (ie, non-UI) thread. This doesn't look very safe, so try to avoid a
crash by pretending the permission was denied.
When exiting PiP with by pressing the X the onPictureInPictureModeChanged method
is called. Since onResume is called a while after, in case the maximize button
is called, it's not easy to know if the user pressed the X button, and that was
the cause for exiting PiP.
So, in order to avoid show the user they are still in the meeting, bring the
activity to the foregound so they can hangup.
Android for Enterprise provides special feature for applications to obtain configuration through RestrictionManager remotely by some MDM solution.
Jitsi Meet can be remotely installed and provisioned with a proper URL (making URL not editable by the user) inside the Work Profile or Fully managed device.
In the Android SDK, the setServerURL option is erroneously
ignored. The meeting's serverURL always defaults to
https://meet.jit.si because the serverURL is not parceled.
It's the source of uncountable problems for which we don't have a good
solution, since they are caused by buggy implementations of self-managed
connection services by manufacturers.
In 49e3b03885 we turned on SW encoders / decoders
on account of some devices having broken HW *encoders* and also our desire for
using simulcast.
Well, the astute reader may have noticed that only *encoding* was mentioned.
Indeed, we should be able to keep using the HW decoder just fine.
This shouldn't be needed, as ConnectionService should take care of it, but we
suspect some devices don't do it since we got reports of people not hearing
users, and the problem went away when CS was disabled.
Fallback to the non-ConnectionService case for any error. Also, handle errors
when registering the phone account; Pixel C devices throw UnsupportedException.
Some Samsung devices will fail to fully engage ConnectionService if no SIM card
was ever installed on the device. We could check for it, but it would require
the CALL_PHONE permission, which is not something we want to do, so fallback to
not using ConnectionService.
Some devices seem to have a bug in their Android versions and startCall fails
with SecurityError because the CALL_PHONE permissions is not granted. This is
not a requirement for self-managed connection services as per the official
documentation though:
https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/telecom/selfManaged
Alas, connection services takes over audio device management too, so let's
handle the error and disable CS if we get SecurityError.
