MicroG Settings falsely reports missing network connection on sign in

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open microG Settings
2. Tap "Add Google Account"
3. Tap "Sign in"
4. Error message appears

Expected behavior
The login process continues and the account gets added to the device

Screenshots

System
Android Version: 12
Custom ROM: LineageOS for microG 19.1

So do I. I'm surprised this bug report has so few activity. Are we the only ones? It makes me miss notifications on many apps, which is pretty annoying.

Works for me... I have Android 11, LineageOS 18.1, OnePlus 8.

Probably specific to Android 12, so not that many people have run into it yet.

See if adb log gives any interesting errors?

adb logcat gives me

which seems interesting, but I am not quite an expert regarding android.

I also had this problem, coming from LineageOS 18 with microg.

The root cause seems to be a missing permission. At least I'm my case, I had to manually grant the "access network" permission in the app settings.

1. Long press on the microg icon and open the app info
2. Click on Network and WiFi
3. Grant the permission to access the network

IMO this is still a valid bug, the workaround shown above should not be necessary - and definitely not in a "LineageOS with Microg" ROM.

(Lineageos with microg, Updated from 18 to 19 Build 2023-01-04, Poco F3, alioth)

I can confirm that the workaround which steven-alday shared works for me.

I also encountered this problem and the final solution was to restart the device.
