linphone on android, stops connect automatically at startup after few days about linphone-android HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @lm2lm2,

This background mode was always a workaround, as Android doesn't like having an app that's always running.
Up until now it was kinda working, depending on the device manufacturer (maybe you remember https://dontkillmyapp.com).
With Android 15 that will be released in a few months, they are definitively killing that: a foreground datasync service will only be allowed 6 hours every day, so this mode will no longer be a solution when push notifications aren't available...

That being said, if it was working before and no longer does, it's likely because LineageOS changed something about that, as we didn't.
I couldn't check your logs because the link simply redirects towards the github issue, could you attach it again so I can confirm everything goes as expected in our app?

Cheers,

from linphone-android.

Thanks for the logs, but from them I can't tell you why the app is being killed, the OS isn't very verbose about it:
