Bug Description

The Dhizuku method don't work (basically nothing happens)
And Essential not listed in the Dhizuku's Application Management tab

Steps to Reproduce

For the permission granting bug:

  1. Setup Dhizuku & Enable Dhizuku
  2. In Essential, select the Dhizuku option for the root access method
  3. In the permission tab, tap grant
  4. See that permission didn't got granted, nor the Dhizuku's modal

(3. work also in Essential's setting, nothing happen)


For the Dhizuku's Application Management tab bug:

  1. Open Dhizuku
  2. Go to the Application Management tab
  3. See that Essential is missing.

Expected Behavior

For the permission bug:

In non whitelist mode:

  • Expecting the Dhizuku's Modal to grant or not the application (see below for an example)

In whitelist mode:

  • Expecting the permission to be granted right away.

For the Dhizuku's Application Management tab bug:

  • Expecting Essential to be listed (see below)

Screenshots

Basically what happened:

Android Version

Android 17 QPR3 Beta 1 (DP11.260918.006)

Device

Google Pixel 7a

App Version

v19.0

Additional Context

I'd like to provide a log trace if Essential generate those, would you mind explaining a step by step procedure to follow ?

Also, I did not tested the Activation by Dhizuku option (aka switching the Device Owner to Essential) as we would need some setting in Essential to switch the device owner (aka to restore Dhizuku as Device Owner).

For the whitelist story, basically I understood it as a list of application that can use Dhizuku. For example, I setup to allow only Essential & Hail, then Amarok cannot request the permission at all. (It also bypass the modal step if pre authorized in whitelist mode).
