Research direction
Start by reproducing the Service Victoria QR check-in flow on Android 11 with the reported LineageOS for MicroG 18.1 and microG Core v0.2.22.212658 setup. Compare cases where the prompt appears with cases where scanning does nothing, then identify the relevant QR-scanning entry point in GmsCore. Done means the check-in prompt reliably appears for the reported QR code.
