💡 Overview

ACTION_STOP_SERVICE unconditionally cancelled all notifications and called start-id blind stopSelf(), whose onDestroy disconnects every call. Its only caller is the createStreamVideoClient() failure path, so a ringing push landing mid-await got torn down.

also has changes from #2397

📝 Implementation notes

The stop is now a request, gated on hasAnyCalls() || hasRegisteredCall() and stopSelfResult(startId) — each covers an ordering the other can't see. The push handler ends the abandoned call explicitly. Three tracked-id leak paths closed.

🎫 Ticket: https://linear.app/stream/issue/XYZ-123

CallService hosts every call, but ACTION_STOP_SERVICE was an unconditional
command: it cancelled all notifications and called the start-id blind
stopSelf(), whose onDestroy then disconnects every call via
callRepository.release(). Its only caller is the createStreamVideoClient()
failure path in onRingNotificationReceived, an await of unbounded length, so
a second ringing push landing mid-flight got torn down with the call being
abandoned.

The stop is now a request that only proceeds when nothing owns the service.
Two guards are needed because each covers an ordering the other cannot see:

- hasAnyCalls() || hasRegisteredCall() covers a call already tracked when we
  read state. trackCallRegistration() runs synchronously before
  startForegroundService, so it is set even while the new call's intent is
  queued and the repository is still empty.
- stopSelfResult(startId) covers a call whose start reached ActivityManager
  after we read state. AMS bumps its last start id at startService() time,
  before delivery, so a mismatch means a start is in flight. stopSelf() is
  stopSelf(-1), and AMS skips the id check for negative values.

Since the stop no longer wipes notifications for calls it does not own, the
abandoned call has to be ended explicitly, so the push handler now calls
endCallWithReason() before requesting the stop.

Gating on hasRegisteredCall() means a leaked tracked id would block every
later stop and strand the foreground service, so three leak paths are closed:
registerCall's exception and cancellation branches, and an unguarded
startForegroundService in startIncomingCallFromPush.

Also: the stop branch returned START_STICKY, asking for a null-intent restart
of a service it had just stopped; stopService() no longer builds a whole
CallRepository just to release it when the service is not running.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Complete cleanup when a cleanup promise fails.

If callingx.stopService() rejects, execution exits before Line 98. pushUnsubscriptionCallbacks then retains call_cid, and a later push for that call is discarded as a duplicate. finishBackgroundTask() also drops a possible releaseBackgroundTask() rejection.

Catch both cleanup failures. Delete the callback entry in finally. Add a regression test where stopService rejects.

Proposed fix
 const finishBackgroundTask = () => {
   nativeLog(`Finishing background task for callCid: ${call_cid}`);
-  callingx.releaseBackgroundTask(backgroundTaskOwner);
+  void callingx.releaseBackgroundTask(backgroundTaskOwner).catch((error) => {
+    nativeLog(
+      `Failed to release background task for callCid: ${call_cid} error: ${error}`,
+      'error',
+    );
+  });
 };
 
-    await callingx.stopService();
-    pushUnsubscriptionCallbacks.delete(call_cid);
+    try {
+      await callingx.stopService();
+    } catch (error) {
+      nativeLog(`Failed to stop service for callCid: ${call_cid} error: ${error}`, 'error');
+    } finally {
+      pushUnsubscriptionCallbacks.delete(call_cid);
+    }

Source: Coding guidelines

CallService hosts every call, but ACTION_STOP_SERVICE was an unconditional
command: it cancelled all notifications and called the start-id blind
stopSelf(), whose onDestroy then disconnects every call via
callRepository.release(). Its only caller is the createStreamVideoClient()
failure path in onRingNotificationReceived, an await of unbounded length, so
a second ringing push landing mid-flight got torn down with the call being
abandoned.

The stop is now a request that only proceeds when nothing owns the service.
Two guards are needed because each covers an ordering the other cannot see:

- hasAnyCalls() || hasRegisteredCall() covers a call already tracked when we
  read state. trackCallRegistration() runs synchronously before
  startForegroundService, so it is set even while the new call's intent is
  queued and the repository is still empty.
- stopSelfResult(startId) covers a call whose start reached ActivityManager
  after we read state. AMS bumps its last start id at startService() time,
  before delivery, so a mismatch means a start is in flight. stopSelf() is
  stopSelf(-1), and AMS skips the id check for negative values.

Since the stop no longer wipes notifications for calls it does not own, the
abandoned call has to be ended explicitly, so the push handler now calls
endCallWithReason() before requesting the stop.

Gating on hasRegisteredCall() means a leaked tracked id would block every
later stop and strand the foreground service, so three leak paths are closed:
registerCall's exception and cancellation branches, and an unguarded
startForegroundService in startIncomingCallFromPush.

Also: the stop branch returned START_STICKY, asking for a null-intent restart
of a service it had just stopped; stopService() no longer builds a whole
CallRepository just to release it when the service is not running.

- Drop the notification/ringtone/foreground cleanup from stopServiceIfIdle and
  stopSelfIfNoPendingStart. Nothing binds to CallService, so destruction is not
  deferred and onDestroy already does all of it — onDestroy is now the single
  teardown site every stop path converges on.
- Contain a stopService() rejection in abandonPush. It could previously escape
  and skip pushUnsubscriptionCallbacks.delete(), and a retained entry makes
  every later push for that cid look like a duplicate and get discarded.
CallServiceBinder, its getService() accessor, the binder field and onUnbind
had no bindService caller anywhere in the repo. Service.onBind is abstract so
it stays, now returning null to state that this is a started-only service.
acquireBackgroundTask starts CallService via startService (see
CallingxModuleImpl.startBackgroundTask), and that branch never calls
startForeground. So a service whose only reason to exist is the keep-alive task
had nothing to stop it: ACTION_STOP_BACKGROUND_TASK only finishes the task and
is unreachable from JS, and Call.None cannot fire because there is no call.

HeadlessTaskManager now takes an onTaskFinished callback, which CallService
wires to stopServiceIfIdle. The existing guards do the deciding, so a live call
keeps the service up.

Doing this natively rather than calling stopService() from
releaseBackgroundTask matters: that would route through startService, which is
blocked for a backgrounded app with no foreground service — exactly the state
this sweep targets, and quite possibly past the temp-allowlist window granted
by the incoming push. stopSelf is never restricted.

Two paths were checked and are safe by the guards:
- ensureReactContext()'s boot task self-resolves with zero owners, so the
  callback fires right after every ACTION_INCOMING_CALL. trackCallRegistration
  runs before startForegroundService, so hasRegisteredCall() refuses the stop.
- release() from onDestroy finishes the task itself; the callback is skipped on
  the `released` flag rather than re-entering the stop logic mid-teardown.
Reconciled the two branches' stop semantics. call-service-tweaks made every
onStartCommand path return START_NOT_STICKY (right for a call service — a
null-intent restart cannot recover call state) and added a stop on the
null-intent path; this branch had made every stop start-id aware and guarded.

Resolutions:
- Null-intent path: their `if (!hasAnyCalls()) stopSelf()` becomes
  stopServiceIfIdle(startId). The bare stopSelf() is start-id blind and
  hasAnyCalls() alone misses a call that is tracked but not yet in the
  repository, which is the race this branch exists to fix.
- Unknown-action path: kept stopSelfResult(startId) over their stopSelf().
- Dropped the early `return START_NOT_STICKY` from the stop branch, now that
  the whole function returns it.
- updateDisplay switched to plain startService, which would create a service
  with no call in it and nothing to stop it, so it gets the same
  CallService.isRunning guard as stopService.

Taken unchanged from call-service-tweaks: unconditional foreground promotion in
registerCall, getCall-before-getTempCall, isNotificationPosted before
re-posting, setOnlyAlertOnce, and the updateDisplay .catch() in
useCallingExpWithCallingStateEffect.

fgs-repromotion is a superset of call-service-tweaks and reworks FGS promotion
around an explicit "anchor" (the notification a successful startForeground was
issued with), so its stop paths and this branch's both rewrote the same blocks.

Conflict resolutions — all four kept this branch's stop semantics:
- ACTION_STOP_SERVICE: stopServiceIfIdle(startId), not the unconditional
  demote + cancelAllNotifications + stopSelf().
- Call.None and the registerCall catch: the composite
  hasAnyCalls() || hasRegisteredCall() guard plus stopSelfIfNoPendingStart,
  not bare stopSelf().
- Kept both sides' helpers: our stop pair, their demoteForeground and the
  anchor-committing startForegroundSafely(callId, id, notification).

Also brought over from the merge, without conflicts: their null-intent
`if (!hasAnyCalls()) stopSelf()` was already replaced by stopServiceIfIdle in
the call-service-tweaks merge and stays that way.

Two things that did not surface as conflicts:

1. stopSelfIfNoPendingStart still does not demote, and that is now load-bearing
   rather than merely redundant. Their repromoteForegroundIfNeeded demotes when
   it cannot re-anchor, and it runs before both call-state stop paths, so
   isInForeground never claims an anchor it lacks. Demoting inside the helper
   would also give up a valid anchor on the paths where the stop is refused.

2. stopServiceIfIdle now also treats a running headless task as an owner. It
   previously stopped a call-less service even while the keep-alive task was
   live, and onDestroy calls HeadlessTaskManager.release(), which would finish
   that task early — cutting into the 2s debounce that exists so the
   ringing-push -> keep-alive hand-off can reuse it. #2402's auto-leave of
   previous calls on join makes that churn common enough to matter.
   activeTaskId is now @volatile, since the service reads it off the UI thread.
The keep-alive task was only counted as an owner in stopServiceIfIdle, but the
call-state paths carried their own narrower predicate
(hasAnyCalls + hasRegisteredCall) and stopped the service directly. So a
Call.None for the last call still destroyed a service whose keep-alive task was
live, and onDestroy's HeadlessTaskManager.release() then finished that task
while JS still held entries in _keepAliveOwners — leaving JS believing it owned
a keep-alive that no longer existed.

Rather than repeat the predicate a third time, all five stop sites now call
stopServiceIfIdle, and the single-use stopSelfIfNoPendingStart is folded into
it. Exactly one function in this file stops the service.

Two behaviour changes fall out of that:
- An unknown action no longer tears down live calls; it was the last
  unconditional stop left.
- A failed registration and a call unregistering now also respect a running
  keep-alive task.

hasActiveTask() is the native proxy for "JS holds owners": owners keep the
keepAliveHoldTask promise pending, which is what keeps activeTaskId set. The
gap between JS adding an owner and the native start arriving is covered by the
start-id check, since that start is what creates the service.

hasActiveTask() vetoes stopServiceIfIdle, so a permanently non-null
activeTaskId means the service can never stop: no stopSelfResult, no onDestroy,
no release(), so the id is never cleared. With a call-promoted service that is
an un-dismissable phoneCall FGS.

React Native has no teardown for in-flight headless tasks — ReactInstanceManager
and ReactHostImpl never reference HeadlessJsTaskContext — so a context reload
or destroy drops pending task ids with no onHeadlessJsTaskFinish. These tasks
also use timeout = 0, which disables RN's only automatic finish. Reachable on
every dev reload, and in production via Expo Updates.reloadAsync().

hasActiveTask() now records the React context the task was started on and only
vetoes while that context is still the live one, so a task orphaned by a reload
is dropped instead of pinning the service. reactContext is read through a
try/catch because it throws when the host is uninitialised and the stop paths
call this off the main thread.

Not addressed here, verified as unreachable: RN adds a task to its active set
before checking hasActiveReactInstance(), so a start with no live JS instance
would leak the id — but neither entry point can reach that state.
ensureReactContext() early-returns whenever a context exists, which is exactly
that window, and ACTION_START_BACKGROUND_TASK only arrives from JS, which
implies a live instance.
Three fixes, all in service of two invariants: the service leaves the
foreground once no call and no keep-alive owner remains, and tearing it down
touches nothing but callingx.

1. stopHeadlessTask() now goes through liveActiveTaskId() rather than reading
   activeTaskId raw. HeadlessJsTaskContext.finishTask has no notion of task
   ownership and RN restarts task ids at 1 in a new context, so a stale id
   could name whichever library inherited that number. Sequence: a push starts
   our task as id 1, a context reload orphans it (RN never finishes in-flight
   tasks), the RN SDK keep-alive or firebase-messaging then gets id 1 on the
   new context, and our next onDestroy finishes it — HeadlessJsTaskService
   sees its last task end and calls stopSelf(), dropping that library's
   foreground service and notification.

2. CallingxModuleImpl.invalidate() now asks the service to re-check whether it
   still has a reason to run. A context teardown orphans the keep-alive task
   without a finish callback, so the "last owner released" trigger never fires
   and the service stayed foreground with no call and no owner. Telecom-
   registered calls still veto the stop.

3. stopTask() and release()'s deferred block read the React context through
   currentReactContextOrNull(). The raw getter throws when the host is
   uninitialised, and in release() that read happens inside runOnUiThread —
   uncaught, so it would kill the process and every co-tenant headless task
   with it.
…on JS teardown

Both from review, both confirmed against the code.

startHeadlessTask still compared the raw activeTaskId, so a task orphaned by a
React context swap blocked every subsequent start and the keep-alive was
silently never re-acquired — the same staleness liveActiveTaskId() was added
for, missed at this one call site. The finish-event guard now validates too.

The task id and its context were also two separate @volatile fields written in
sequence, so a reader on another thread could observe an id with no context yet
and discard a task that had just started. They are now one immutable pair.

invalidate() cleared CallRegistrationStore before asking the service to
re-check. Telecom registration spends up to PRE_CALL_ENDPOINTS_TIMEOUT_MS
(1500ms, TelecomCallRepository.kt:61) resolving endpoints before the call
reaches the repository, and during that window the tracked id is its only stop
veto — so a JS reload could stop the service and cancel a registration whose
native incoming-call UI was already showing. Teardown now clears only the
promises and their timeouts, which are the JS-coupled part; tracked ids and
queued actions describe native calls and outlive the JS context.

CallRegistrationStore is process-global and CallService is not, so a tracked id
that leaks outlives every service instance and makes stopServiceIfIdle refuse
forever — the stranded service this PR exists to prevent. The leak is easy to
reach: release() empties _calls and cancels observeCallsJob, so no Call.None is
emitted and nothing drops the tracked ids, and onDestroy never clears the
store. Swiping the app away with a call active (stopWithTask="true") does it,
and the process can outlive the service. clearPendingPromises() had removed the
last process-wide reset.

The veto is now registeringCallIds on the service instance: added before the
registration coroutine launches, handed over to hasAnyCalls() in
onCallRegistered, and removed in both catches plus a finally backstop. A stale
entry now dies with the instance.

The handover has to happen in onCallRegistered rather than when registerCall
returns, because the repository removes the call — firing Call.None and with it
the stop check — before that call returns.

This drops coverage of one window: between trackCallRegistration and the start
intent reaching ActivityManager, nothing vetoes. That window is harmless. A
stop accepted there destroys the service before the new call's start arrives,
so the call lands on a fresh instance with its own repository; the windows that
actually matter are the ones where the start has already been delivered to this
instance, and those are covered by registeringCallIds and the start id.

CallRegistrationStore keeps its JS-facing roles (rejectCallWhenBusy,
isCallTracked) and the leak-path fixes that keep those honest.
All five findings validated against the code; all five were real.

P1 registeringCallIds claimed too late: the add sat after
startForegroundForCall, which builds a Notification and may call
startForeground. lastStartId is already this call's by then, so another call's
Call.None on Dispatchers.Default could see an empty set and stop the service
with a matching start id, and onDestroy's scope.cancel() would kill the
registration once onStartCommand returned. Claimed first thing now, and handed
straight back on the already-registered path.

P1 hasActiveTask() ignored isStarting, and P1 the stale-task clear was not
atomic — it read the task into a local and then cleared unconditionally, so a
replacement assigned in between was erased. Both were structural, so
HeadlessTaskManager now models the slot as one lock-guarded
None | Starting | Active state, as the review suggested. Starting counts as
ownership, which also covers the window where invokeStartTask has requested a
task but RN has not assigned an id yet, since that assignment happens in a
posted block.

P2 the process-global store outlived the service. release() disconnects every
call without emitting Call.None (it cancels the observer), so onDestroy now
drops the tracked ids and queued actions for the calls this instance owned.
Otherwise a stopWithTask teardown left ids behind that make rejectCallWhenBusy
skip later pushes, and actions that would replay against a future call.

P2 updateDisplay's isRunning gate dropped updates while the service was still
starting. Gate removed; ACTION_UPDATE_CALL now runs the idle check itself, so a
service created only to deliver that action is swept instead. This also closes
one of the liveness holes noted earlier, where ACTION_UPDATE_CALL against an
unknown call left no stop trigger.
Rename hasActiveTask to ownsTaskSlot: it now reports Starting too, so
"active" was misleading. Replace the takePendingActions call used purely
for its removal side effect with an explicit discardCallState, and drop
the stale claim that a tracked id is the service's only protection —
registeringCallIds took that over.
