Since I updated to Android 7 (Linage OS), Birthhday Adapter doesn't sync anymore. I cannot add an account from the app, the calendar vor system settings -> accounts. No error message, it just doesn't happen.

If you open BA, can you enable it from there?

Yes, I can open BA and and swipe the slider "Calendar" to activate it. However, after some seconds, the slider is back disabled.

did you give BA all the required permissions? Android settings -> Apps -> Birthday Cal -> Permissions

@Schroedingers-Cat

Yes, both sliders are enabled.

I also see this problems under Lineage OS 14: can't create account, no sync. If I open BA, I can "enable" it, press "sync now", close -> the birthdays appear in calendar. Open BA again, and it show it is deactivated! And some time later the birthdays disappear from calendar as well :(

Any way to debug it?
