The matrix E2E (29) job intermittently fails (~2%, API-29 only) in reactivecircus/android-emulator-runner's post-boot adb shell input keyevent 82 with ServiceManager$ServiceNotFoundException: No service published for: input: on snapshot resume sys.boot_completed=1 is restored before system_server republishes its binder services, and that keyevent is un-guarded and fatal, so the job aborts before Gradle runs (fast-fail ~1m43s). Proven on run 28667366203 (PR #209). NOT the historical Gradle-download timeout and NOT a test failure.
This ticket (quick unblock): make the "Run E2E tests" step (.github/workflows/ci.yml:193-202) tolerant of the boot race — add id: + continue-on-error: true, then a guarded second reactivecircus/android-emulator-runner attempt (if: steps.<id>.outcome == 'failure'). Two independent boots drop the ~2% race to ~0.04%. No matrix / androidTest changes. The definitive fix (converge on the e2e-preview manual-boot pattern) is tracked as a separate follow-up.
