Android 30+: unable to load TLS credentials error.

Background

Hey. I was able to build the AAR file for Android. But there's a common issue with Android 30+ inclusively. When I try to connect to Lndmobile with this lines:

Lndmobile.start(
                """--bitcoin.active
                        --lnddir="${file.path}"
                        --bitcoin.node=neutrino 
                        --bitcoin.testnet 
                        --no-macaroons""".trimIndent(),
                StartCallback()
            )

it tells me next:

[WRN] LTND: open /data/user/0/com.bitmynt/files/lnd/lnd.conf: no such file or directory
[INF] LTND: Version: 0.13.99-beta commit=healthcheck/v1.2.0-1-gcac8da81, build=development, logging=default, debuglevel=info
[INF] LTND: Active chain: Bitcoin (network=testnet)
[INF] RPCS: Generating TLS certificates...
[ERR] LTND: unable to load TLS credentials: route ip+net: netlinkrib: permission denied
[INF] LTND: Shutdown complete

Your environment

• version of lnd - master or v0.13.99-beta
• which operating system - MacOS Big Sur 11.5.2

Steps to reproduce

Try to connect to Lndmobile on Android 30 or above.

Expected behaviour

Client is connected successfully.

Actual behaviour

An error appeared with TLS.

Thanks in advance for helping!

This seems to be a known problem with the Android API: golang/go#40569.
Can you try if adding the --tlsdisableautofill flag fixes the problem for you?

Thanks, this command helped!

Thanks, this command helped!

Closing as this seems to be resolved. Feel free to re-open if you run into other issues around TLS and Android.
