Is a California tax return required for a US citizen living abroad and having a California mailing address for US bank accounts, US credit card accounts, etc.?

I will live abroad indefinitely, have not been in California (CA) for more than 3 years, and do not have a home in CA or CA-sourced incomes (if dividends and capital gains from Apple stock are not deemed CA-sourced incomes) in 2024, but I use a friend's CA address for my US bank accounts, US credit card account, etc. that require a US mailing address. Do I need to file a 2024 California state income tax return? Thanks.
