Does Diia app work for anyone?

kauyafrotrauci-4115

Can't get Ukrainian government application ua.gov.diia.app to work on GrapheneOS.
I have tried to enable exploit protection, it has not helped. Play Services and Store are enabled with no Network permission.
I click on the application icon, a window is shown for a moment, but it closes with no error message.

In the application log there are numerous errors:
E VibratorInfo: Invalid frequency profile received from HAL. resonantFrequencyHz=NaN, frequenciesHz=null, outputAccelerationsGs=null
E GoogleApiManager: Failed to get service from broker.
03-01 22:09:25.172 27120 27193 E GoogleApiManager: java.lang.SecurityException: Unknown calling package name 'com.google.android.gms'.

Is there anything those errors tell?

You might need to enable Network permission for Play Services. Just a guess.

I think during my experiments with I have noticed Diia has checked for android.xr package and I don't have one.

Probably9857 Can I somehow control what it connects to if I give it Network permission?

In theory, you could probably do this with Rethink DNS, but it will not be simple.

Probably9857 Thank you, I will try it. This or NextDNS. I don't like Google calling home, so prefer to limit it as much as possible.

I think I have found the distinctive difference when the application doesn't start for me.
Diia somehow detects that it was not installed from Play Store (though the Play Services and Store are installed). I use Aurora store. So it is sideloaded.

I have took spare smartphone with regular android and performed few tests. I may have Play Services and Store disabled post-installation, but as soon as I install from Aurora, Diia breaks. From Play Store - works.

The problem is that I don't plan to give Play Store an Internet access and I do not plan to create any new Google accounts to enable installation from Play Store.

I will try to find a workaround, read etc https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/15666-some-apps-now-refuse-working-if-not-installed-by-play-store

If someone already knows how to trick any application to not complain it wasn't installed from Play Store - I will be thankful.

I have obviously tried protection modes - no luck.

Oh, no, I hate it. I will be glad to hear that there are better ways than using Shizuku

In worst case I will keep it disabled and will use it only for the initial installation.

Using Aurora and Shizuku has resolved my issue with ua.gov.diia.app
It appeared I don't even need to keep Play Services enabled.
Let's see how the application update will go.
