Try "stop collecting" in the uploader, remove the CNL, restart phone. Give it a minute to fully boot up and insert the CNL. The phone should do something on insert, either start the app or ask for permission. If not the phone has stopped recognizing the CNL and you should check through your phone settings for any permission changes that google may have added.
