How can be connectivity check adjusted / disabled for A12?
My phone reports "connected without internet" due to firewall setup.
On my other devices it was possible to disable the connectivity check using these steps: https://github.com/ukanth/afwall/issues/761
It doesn't work for Samsung Galaxy A12 with Android 10.
It wouldn't bother me since actually all aps and services which matter can access everything what is needed but since Android thinks there is no internet, it stops synchronisation with my Radicale server (used instead of google services).
Update 19.4.2021:
Check is handled by UID 1000. Now it needs port 443 to be opened. Packing the connectivity check nontransparently together with so many other services within single encrypted channel doesn't help to build bonds of trust between user and vendor to say the least.
