Failed resolution of: Lio/grpc/InternalGlobalInterceptors when update Google APIs on Samsung devices

when I upgrade one of the following libraries to the current version, I get the message during app start and the app crashes: NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Lio/grpc/InternalGlobalInterceptors

I do not use GRPC in my app.

Implementation ‘com.google.http-client:google-http-client-gson:1.44.2’
Implementation ‘com.google.api-client:google-api-client-android:2.6.0’
Implementation ‘com.google.auth:google-auth-library-oauth2-http:1.24.0’
Implementation ‘com.google.api-client:google-api-client:2.6.0’
Implementation'com.google.apis:google-api-services-drive:v3-rev20220815-2.0.0'

I have already integrated the GRPC libraries, but the app still crashes with the error Looks like the problem just happens on Samsung devices.

Thanks, GGK

Solution

I was able to solve my problem myself by analysing the dependency tree. in the com.google.firebase:firebase-inappmessaging-display the class io.grpc was listed.

I have now removed io.grpc.

implementation ("com.google.firebase:firebase-inappmessaging-display") {
    exclude group: "io.grpc"
}
