Unable to resolve host firestore.googleapis.com (due to grpc?)

[READ] Step 1: Are you in the right place?

[REQUIRED] Step 2: Describe your environment

For the last 1.5 I have a problem that creates errors in logs.

Unable to resolve host firestore.googleapis.com

[REQUIRED] Step 3: Describe the problem

The error happns when the app goes background.

Steps to reproduce:

Open app, press "Home".

Relevant

I've noticed we are using the 1.62.2 version of grpc. Version 1.65.0

services: restore //services:binarylog bazel target (grpc/grpc-java#11292) (grpc/grpc-java@d57f271). This fixes a regression introduced in 1.62.2

THis might be a relevant bug fix.

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

Hi @RohovDmytro, thank you for reaching out and reporting the issue. I was able to reproduce the issue. Let me raise this to our engineers and see what we can do here. Thanks!

[wu-hui]

Hi @RohovDmytro

May I ask what makes you think this is the fix to the issue?

[RohovDmytro]

@wu-hui That's the best guess. It took me a while to investigate without any good solutions. The closest is grpc. I was checking the changelog and there were mentions of stability of connection while going background (1.65.* version).

[wu-hui]

I have created a PR to upgrade: #6744

Would you give it a try to see if this fixes your problem?
