Hey there,
After the latest update to the Service NSW app, I can no longer access it due to it reporting that my phone is running a ROM. I was under the impression that this issue wasn't prevalent on Graphene due to its sand-boxing of google play. Does anyone know how I could potentially fix this?
Thanks
Service NSW not working (requires Google Certified OS)
Can you link us to the app? I'm assuming you've installed Sandboxed Google Play. It might require a Google certified OS.
Was working until just over a week ago, don't know what happened
Looks like it had an update on the 14th, it is possible they started using Play Integrity API now. If that is the case, not much we can do.
When does the error pop-up? On first launch? Will we be able to test it without requiring authentication etc.?
matchboxbananasynergy It only comes up when you click on the "login" button on the app, won't even bring up the credentials page before the error appears
Just as a sanity check while we look into this. Is native code debugging enabled in Settings > Security. If not, please enable it and try again.
Nopesef Do you get this notification on start-up? I can't reproduce this.
I have installed it from Google Play Store and the app starts fine.

The app starts fine even with Native code debugging disabled.

Apologies, I hadn't read this part. I can reproduce this, so I am not able to login either. As @matchboxbananasynergy says, it seems they are requiring users to have a Google Certified OS.
Nopesef It is unfortunate indeed. If you press 'More info' it will take you to this screen
https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/non-standard-software which gives more details. GrapheneOS is not Google Certified in Play Protect.
The only suggestion I have really is to contact the app developers and suggest that they follow this guide instead: https://grapheneos.org/articles/attestation-compatibility-guide. It's a long shot, but might be worth a try.

Nopesef I'd wager it's still worth a try. You never know. You'd be helping yourself and others in your position if they do it.
matchboxbananasynergy Yeah I'll give it a try, no harm
G'day All
The operating system has been update to current version, I was able to investigate, whether or not a copy of the earlier version of the application Service NSW app is also affected by the issue, and yes, it is. The older version was working, but the login screen fails, the latest version, has a network issue problem. It can't find the network, even though other apps work fine with a Wi-Fi connection. And native code debugging is enabled.

AloofChocolate Can you show us the exact version? Do you have Sandboxed Google Play? Where did you install the app from? We need more information.
