Fixed an issue by exposing gradle user home directory property in Preferences->External Tools, allowing you to set a different gradle user home. This is useful if your user name consists of non ascii characters, since when gradle points to .gradle folder in user home directory, it sometimes doesn't work correctly, so previously your only option was to change your user name, now you'll have the option to change user home directory instead.
Fixed an issue for missing pdb files for Android Editor extensions - AndroidPlayerBuildProgram.Data.pdb, AndroidPlayerBuildProgram.pdb, Unity.Android.Gradle.pdb, Unity.Android.Types.pdb, UnityEditor.Android.Extensions.pdb. This will improve Editor.log contents when there's an exception happening in Android editor code.
Fixed an issue so that the Editor.log now contains an entry on how the application is launched. For example, adb.exe -s "FA7A31A08307" shell am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -c android.intent.category.LAUNCHER -f 0x10200000 -S -n "com.DefaultCompany.GameActivity/com.unity3d.player.UnityPlayerActivity".
Fixed an issue so that the Symlink Sources option will apply to .androidlib plugins. Note that .androidlib has to have a build.gradle file.
Fixed an issue so that TouchScreenKeyboard.Status will properly get updated when keyboard is closed on GameActivity.
Fixed an issue so the Android Logcat package can now query Unity to determine on which device the application is launched.

Fixed AndroidJNI.ToBooleanArray not returning 0 when null.
Ignore harmless warnings coming from sdkmanager - "Errors during XML parse:", "Additionally, the fallback loader failed to parse the XML."
AndroidFix
Unity no longer sets the theme attribute for application manifest in unityLibrary manifest. That means there's no default theme for activities and you're responsible for applying theme to your custom activities. This is because, there's no valid default theme which can be applied for both Activity and GameActivity at the same time.
Updated BundleTool to version 1.17.2.
Updated game frame pacing androidx.games:games-frame-pacing package version to 2.1.2.

Fixed the Inspector help link for the Playable Director component.
Fixed a race condition that occurred when loading AssetBundles using AssetBundle.LoadFromStream.
Fixed an issue by adding a new flag BuildAssetBundleOptions.StripUnatlasedSpriteCopies to the legacy asset bundle system. Currently if we have assets in multiple bundles that depend upon a source texture we copy it into all relevant bundles. Setting this new flag will keep from creating duplicates if the texture does not belong to a sprite atlas.
Fixed an issue where the async texture upload process sometimes resulted in the Editor freezing when an AssetBundle failed to upload.

Fixed crash that could occur when script with scriptable object is moved and there hasn't been a domain reload, and scriptable object is used for write serialization. When fixing this bug, it was also discovered that rename would cause similar crash. It was also discovered that managed plugins also had problems with performing write serialization when moved/renamed - but didn't cause a crash.
Fixed for uninitialized field in ScriptArtifactInfo.
Fixed problem with main thread potentially being blocked, while doing async asset loads.

Added validation when building from a script to prevent use of incompatible options, such as ScriptDebugging in a non-development build.
Fixed an issue with PackedAssetInfo.sourceAssetGUID and buildTimeAssetPathdisplayed incorrect information for audio clips in the Build Report.
Fixed error handling when using the "Build and Run" option so that shader syntax errors, and other logged errors, are consistently treated as build failures. In some cases the content of a failed build was being reused, instead of the content being rebuilt, on the next build attempt.
Fixed issue where JsonUtility.FromJson sometimes stops deserializing embedded classes.
Extended the BEE_BUILD_THREADS environment variable to the Bee backend driver. This variable limits the maximum job count for Bee-based builds on your machine, user account, or session, preventing it from consuming all available CPU resources regardless of how builds are run.
