cordova-plugin-ibeacon not working starting android 11

[RN-programmer]

We are using cordova-plugin-ibeacon to detect beacons in our android mobile app. It was working till android sdk 29.

As per google play store policy, we updated our android app compile sdk to 31. After that, ibeacon not detecting any beacons.

We tried all the changes mentioned in this link :
#474

I really appreciate if someone is having a solution for this issue.

Happy to help! I was going to ask if you already had it working in a earlier version of android? Did you add the necessary permissions for the latest android version? Also, are you able to see any errors in the console?

Hi @noahbaron ,
Yes it was working in the earlier versions of android.

Yes I have added all necessary permissions..

Beacons list is coming as empty.

[noahbaron]

One permission that changed is Bluetooth permission. There is now a BLUETOOTH_SCAN permission that is required. Also, what version of android did you have it working on previously? Did you have it working with all the necessary android:exported =“false” tags to AndroidManifest.xml?

Hi @noahbaron ,

All necessary permissions has been added including BLUETOOTH_SCAN and android:exported="false" for intent filters .

But no luck with respect to beacon list. still it's empty.

@RN-programmer Here’s a link to my AndroidManifest.xml for reference. I had to add additional entries based on what I was seeing in the merged manifest and include the android:exported=“false” tag. https://github.com/baronbrew/Tilt-Hydrometer-Framework7/blob/master/platforms/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml Also, can you confirm that you’re getting permissions for fine location? You can see this in the manifest as well (see below). In my app I am using the Cordova permissions plug-in. Have you confirmed you have the fine location permissions needed as shown when you check the app settings? <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

@noahbaron : Yes I'm having "android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" PERMISSION too..

But not getting the beacons

[noahbaron]

Can you copy/paste your log output from Android Studio? Are you seeing any errors or warnings about permissions or Bluetooth? Also, have you confirmed your beacon was working with your previous version of your app?
