Google Duo doesn't work when DNS66 is active
Google Duo doesn't work when DNS66 is active. When the other side receive a call the ring sound changes, but it still doesn't connect you to your contact. For the contact it looks like the call does start (timer is active), but it still hears nothing from you.
Bypassing DNS66 for Google Duo addresses the issue. Might be not a bug, but it's worth to mention anyway (almost torn me apart to figure out what's the reason).
Any fix possible without adding to the bypass list?
Thanks!
No fix possible, I'd say. Please bypass. I should add it to the defaults for the intelligent mode.
Well, on new phones shipping with Duo on the system partition, it already bypasses automatically by default.
I should add it to the defaults for the intelligent mode.
It's a good solution I guess, please add Google Duo to bypass by default.
I guess we have to split things up a bit. Currently there are 3 default modes (All Bypass, None Bypass, System apps (except browsers) bypass). That needs remodelling to "Bypass/Do not bypass" and for "do not bypass" some toggles (system apps bypass, broken apps bypass, etc).
I wonder: is this the same problem that causes Signal calls AND Threema calls to not connect when DNS66 is on?
@mhellwig it might be it. Try to whitelist the apps and check how's it going.
BTW, another affected app is Google Translate. It can't download offline dictionaries if not whitelisted.
oh I know that dns66 causes the voice-calling feature of these two crypto-messengers not to work because I can realiably trigger works-doesn't work by pausing/unpausing dns66. My wonderment was whether it's the exact same root cause mechanism as with Google Duo
I can confirm Signal Calls does not work when I try to place a call or receive a call when DNS66 is running. Even after I whitelisted Signal in DNS66, still the only way I'd be able to get calls through was once I disabled DNS66
