[AbcEupho]

did anyone get solution to this issue?

[anonym24]

@AbcEupho I don't think so. And the library isn't open-sourced. So only Google Developers can fix it @ulukaya

[AbcEupho]

Then how to know the fix.. And how to contact google developers

[anonym24]

@AbcEupho seems this project was created by @ulukaya
And it seems he doesn't support it that hard. Mb he has other big projects.
But I hope that he didn't drop this one
