Firebase Realtime Database connection killed: Different Region

I am trying to build a simple login user authentication Android application that uses Firebases Realtime Database but I am getting the error:

[Firebase Database connection was forcefully killed by the server. Will not attempt to reconnect. Reason: The database lives in a different region. Please change your database URL to https://vax-in-60807-default-rtdb.asia-southeast1.firebasedatabase.app]

I am currently using the Singapore(asia-southeast1) server since I live in the Philippines. Is this wrong? or Should I be using the US one? How do I change my Database URL?

It looks like the google-services.json file that you use doesn't contain the Realtime Database URL, probably because you downloaded it before the database was created. In such cases the SDK assumes that the database is in the US (the original region), and you get an error that there's a mismatch.

There are two possible solutions:

1. Download an updated google-services.json from the Firebase console, and add that to your Android app.
2. Specify the database URL in your code instead, like this: FirebaseDatabase.getInstance("https://vax-in-60807-default-rtdb.asia-southeast1.firebasedatabase.app")...

Both have the same result, so pick whichever one seems easiest to you.
