The problem

I am getting the above summary as error when trying to execute the appium android automation and below is the code:

def get_driver(self, *, capabilities: dict[str, Any]):
        """Concrete implementation method of fetching android mobile driver

        Args:
            capabilities (dict[str, Any]): android capabilities

        Returns:
            WebDriver: Android driver instance
        """
        from appium.options.android import UiAutomator2Options
        from appium.webdriver import Remote

        # launch android driver
        return Remote(
            self.remote_url,
            options=UiAutomator2Options().load_capabilities(capabilities),
            direct_connection=True,
        )

These are the arguments passed to the method:
self.remote_url = "http://localhost:4725/wd/hub"

@KazuCocoa Shall we update the implementation of _get_connection_manager for AppiumConnection?
I can observe several things being changed there in the parent class

[KazuCocoa]

oh... i see

[KazuCocoa]

I wonder if this was since selenium webdriver v4.9.1 (by urllib3 update). (the connection manager stuff was actually more old one tho)

[KazuCocoa]

I confirmed pip install selenium==4.9.0 could be a workaround for this. so urllib3 update since 4.9.1 caused this (as the main cause)

[Asiffarooq93]

This works for me, thanks

[suneel944]

I checked with version 4.9.0 it is working. When can we expect a fix release in pypi for this as this a blocker if any body using the selenium version > 4.9.0

[KazuCocoa]

will do it today

[KazuCocoa]

2.10.0 has this fix as well.

[rethisha]

I have updated to the latest of selenium . Still same isse. can someone share the steps to resolve the issue
