fix(android): handle null intent/action in PhoneConnectionService#138
Conversation
…tartCommand On some devices (notably LGE), the system may restart the service with a null intent or an intent missing its action extra when the app is in the background. This caused an IllegalArgumentException in ServiceAction.from() with "Unknown action: null". Now gracefully returns START_NOT_STICKY when intent or action is null.

On some devices (notably LGE), Android may restart the service with a null intent or an intent missing its action extra when the app is in the background. This was causing a crash in
ServiceAction.from()because it throws on null input.
