I have entered an issue for this.   The Map load uses the 'first layer in the map to initialize' and when the data source is not accessible it fails to load.   To work around this problem put a disconnected layer (a file based layer) as the bottom layer in your map.   On map load the app will initialize the bottom layer first and load the map. To apply the workaround to your map In ArcGIS Pro. Insert a new basemap   Then add the Basemap layers of your choice to this basemap.  Search Online and add...   Then add another file based layer that will be packaged into the map.  I would suggest using a Vector Tile Package.  I created this one https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=07b04d145b86410eaf5c5c42a78d8e95  its Level of Detail 1 - just background. Make sure it is the bottom layer in the map. Then use this as the Basemap for your Map.   For those that are not using a basemap (its good practice to always have one when creating a Mobile Map Package) make sure your bottom operational layer is in the package, and not a referenced online layer.

Brian, When you say it doesn't work...  is the service not displaying in your application?   Runtime 100.9 is needed to make use of MMPKs that have service references in them. Mark ... View more

no, I did not modify the info folder.  The info folder is all of the font references.   It is possible that the fonts could not be quite the same, if the external style is making use of a font that is not in the internal style. ... View more

The VTPK will only show the correct styling within a mobile map package.  When you download the map in Pro a layer is added to the map.  If you package that layer in a mobile map package, it will display correctly in Runtime 100.7 and later.   If you want to use the .vtpk file that Pro writes to disk, you will need to update the internal files. ...

Tim, Here are the style resources for light gray basemap - http://www.arcgis.com/home/search.html?q=id%3A4ce44222d02d4a91b1f7308f855514da  Unzip your VTPK file.  In the resources file replace the content in the info, sprites and styles folders with the content in the item linked to above. Then re-zip to use your vtpk as a light gray basemap. Mark ... View more

The comments in these resources explain what is happening. https://community.esri.com/community/gis/applications/arcgis-pro/blog/2019/07/03/using-arcgis-pro-to-put-esri-vector-tile-basemaps-in-your-mobile-map https://community.esri.com/thread/238736-why-does-the-basemap-change-when-downloading-a-mobile-map-package?commentID=875942#comment The Esri basemaps have an external style file that "tells" the vector tiles how to display.   There is also an internal style with the tiles.   When you use ArcGIS Pro to download the .vtpk, you do not have access to the external style.   The second link above explains how to manually replace the internal style. ...

Tim, I don't have an answer for you, but curious about what you are trying to accomplish. You could include the .VTPK as a basemap in the MMPK. Mark ... View more
