The Issue
Tested on a device running Android 13: the
getPackageInfocall throws aandroid.content.pm.PackageManager$NameNotFoundExceptionfor most package names.To be specific, the issue seems to affect only user applications (unlike
com.android.vending).This results in nothing happening upon tapping the
Get Signbutton even when the user inputs a valid package name.Explanation and Fix

Simply adding the
QUERY_ALL_PACKAGESpermission does the trick, and the application then works as expected.
