Secure display doesn't work on the latest Android build

[wjf3121]

In the latest Android code, secure display can only be created by UID AID_GRAPHICS or AID_SYSTEM:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/native/+/refs/heads/master/services/surfaceflinger/SurfaceFlinger.cpp#5661

While scrcpy will try to create one by shell user, which will no longer work:
https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/blob/master/server/src/main/java/com/genymobile/scrcpy/ScreenEncoder.java#L201

I'm not sure if there's any fix other than creating a non-secure display when the OS version is after Q, any thoughts?

[wjf3121]

Sorry, the Andoird OS Code I pointed is not corrected. Looks like the code I was looking at is still not merged to the public repo. Closing it.

Oh, that's a bad news 😞

I think that we won't have the choice, indeed.

After R? (Android 12 is S)

Refs #2129

Yep, should be "after R". Sorry for the confusion.

How to create a non secure display

[rom1v]

Use scrcpy >= 1.18.

I meant the complete set of steps
