I need a way to prompt for "Allow all the time" for location permission for background tracking. A number of other apps are detecting it on my phone (S21) when it's set to "only while in use" and prompting for a change so there's a hook somewhere other apps are using.
I have followed the tutorials, and it's fine on the majority of phones in my user base, but some just won't work without "allow all the time". Most notably the Galaxy S10 series, but others as well. I have had a hundred + users solve the background tracking issues by changing the setting.
Target SDK is 29
Even if there's no RuntimePermissions attribute, is there a way I can directly link the user in to the setting in my troubleshooting section so they can look and see if Location is set to "All the time" like the other apps are doing?

SetServiceAttribute(myapp, android:foregroundServiceType, "location")
AddPermission(android.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION)
AddPermission(android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)Even if there's no RuntimePermissions attribute, is there a way I can directly link the user in to the setting in my troubleshooting section so they can look and see if Location is set to "All the time" like the other apps are doing?
