Accessibility service: this service is malfunctioning
My accessibility service (android 9) keeps breaking. When I go to the enable screen android notifies me that this service is malfunctioning.
Let me know if I can supply any useful debug data.
What type of device?
Oneplus 3, Android 9 (stock).
Also appears on my Zenfone 6 with stock Android 9. There's no icon at status bar in the presence of password box. Reabling Bitwarden in accessibility can fix this problem for a while, but the problem reappears after several minutes.

Confirming that this is the same for me. I can re-enable but after a time (unpredictable) it breaks again.
@actuallymentor if you're using a OnePlus device go into the battery settings, battery optimisation, click on the three dots in the top right, click advanced optimisation then disable deep optimisation. This seems to have fixed this issue for me.
@vargbeaumont thanks for the tip!
if you're using a OnePlus
I am.
disable deep optimisation
Did it just now and will post back if it ends up breaking.
I have the same problem. I tried to keep deep optimization, but select "don't optimize" next to bitwarden optimization settings (settings -> battery -> battery optimisation). Will report back if I still encounter the problem.

Confirming that even unoptimised it keeps crashing.
No other accessibility services have this issue currently.
Did somebody find a solution for this problem? I have the same problem
Same issue here as well, OnePlus 3 (android 9) + battery optimization turned off
Same issue on HUAWEI P smart Z (STK-LX1) with EMUI 9.1 (Android 9).
Also can confirm this is happening on my Google Pixel 3 XL on the 11 Beta.
OnePlus 8 running Android 11 checking in, same issue.
Pixel 4 xl, android 11, same issue here also.
Hi Guys I also starting developing one Accessibility service and just trying to get kind of event and getting service is malfunctioning on oneplus 8T. Did u able to resolve the issue somehow.
Identical problem on Poco F3 running MIUI 12.5 (Android 12)
Facing same issue in sending WhatsApp message using accessibility service but it crashes after 5 times working properly. Then I need to manually click 2 times back button to come back to my Original Android App after sending the message.
Redmi Note 9 Same message while trying to click the icon in quick settings.
Same error on Xiaomi Mi 9T Is there any fix soon?
Same issue MiUI12.5.5 on Mi 10T (Android 11)
Same here MIUI 12.5 android 11, Poco X3 NFC
Clear app data, reinstall, reboot did not solves this problem.

No go on Poco X3 Pro. Whats the deal yo?
The same happens on Huawei P Smart 2018 with EMUI 9.1 (Android 9)
Okay I found a simple solution.
Just give auto start permission and then problem solved.

@nri82 What phone and OS version are you running? I don't see that exact interface on my Pixel 3a running Android 12 (Build SP2A.220505.006). I wonder if there's a similar permission that goes by a different name?

Poco X3 NFC, android 11, MIUI 12.5. in short you need to give auto start permission but I don't know it's works or not on your situation.

@nri82 Autostart is not a thing on Huawei

Yes I noticed that my solution is working on Xiaomi MIUI sorry for this situation.
How about using some Automator like "Tasker" to autostart the the app, say at interval of 1 hour. That might work. I no longer face this issue as I moved form OP3 to OP8

@Web-E Huawei also does not like these "Automators" and eventually kill those as well.
