Android Question NFC library error

[mmanso]

Hi there,

I've a project that reads something from phone´s NFC and it was made more than 1 year ago. Today, we had to install it on a newer android device and I'm getting an error everytime I call:

nfc.EnableForegroundDispatch

The error I'm getting is:

** Activity (main) Resume **
Error occurred on line: 141 (Main)
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void android.nfc.NfcAdapter.enableForegroundDispatch(android.app.Activity, android.app.PendingIntent, android.content.IntentFilter[], java.lang.String[][])' on a null object reference

I have this in the manifest editor:

AddManifestText(
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="5" android:targetSdkVersion="29"/>
<supports-screens android:largeScreens="true"
    android:normalScreens="true"
    android:smallScreens="true"
    android:anyDensity="true"/>)
SetApplicationAttribute(android:icon, "@drawable/icon")
SetApplicationAttribute(android:label, "$LABEL$")
'End of default text.
AddActivityText(main, <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.nfc.action.NDEF_DISCOVERED"/>
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
    <data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
</intent-filter>)

I used to have targetSdkVersion 19 when we developed the application.

Any clue on why this is happening?

Thanks.

Make sure to use B4A 10.2.

Uninstall the app from the device, set targetSdkVersion to 22 and try it. Does it work?
