I set up Google Play billing for in app purchases in my app yesterday, everything was working as expected and I could query the products, select them and purchase.
Today this has changed, it suddenly does not work and is returning these error messages:
W/BillingClient: Async task is taking too long, cancel it!
D/billingSetupError: Timeout communicating with service
The error response code coming back is -3. Below is my code for connecting to the service and querying the sku details (everything is in my viewmodel as im using a full compose app so no access to activity or fragments where i am)
@HiltViewModel
class StoreViewModel @Inject constructor(
private val billingClientBuilder: BillingClient.Builder
) : ViewModel(), StoreEvents, BillingClientStateListener, PurchasesUpdatedListener {

const val TAG = "StoreViewModel"

val state: StateFlow<StoreScreenState> = _state
private val _purchaseTokens = MutableStateFlow(emptyList<String?>())

"comic_pack",
"elements_pack"

viewModelScope.launch {
state.collect {
it.skuDetails.forEach {
Log.d(TAG, it.toString())
}
}
}
}
private suspend fun queryOneTimeProducts(): List<SkuDetails> = withContext(Dispatchers.IO) {
if (!billingClient.isReady) {
Log.e("TAG", "queryOneTimeProducts: BillingClient is not ready")
return@withContext emptyList()

I have the same issue when using the v4.1.0. I used the version 3.0.2 instead and the issue is gone. This could be a temp solution, since it's not recommended to use a previous version.
Maybe a version between 3.0.2 and 4.1.0 could fix it as well. In the release notes here https://developer.android.com/google/play/billing/release-notes didn't find anything related to the "timeout issue".
