Access not possible when using a HTTP redirect

Nobody has claimed this yet.

I have an NC installation that was relocated in the past. To keep things for older installations/users working I added an HTTP redirect (302 at the moment). This breaks the notes app on android.
I contacted the developer there and he tells me that he uses this library in order to do all network-based stuff. He asked me to open an issue here to ake you aware of the issue.

Here is the information I got from the app:

App Version: 2.11.8
App Version Code: 2011008
App Flavor: play

Files App Version Code: 30110151

I only changed the URL domain in the backtrace.

If you need more information or anything I can provide, please let me know.

Start at AidlNetworkRequest.performNetworkRequestV2 and InputStreamBinder.processRequestV2, which the stack trace identifies as the request path. Inspect how HTTP 302 responses are handled; done means the reported Notes app request can use the relocated installation through the redirect.
