🐛 Specific QR code is not being read by Android

[Barteque]

What's happening?

This code is not being read by the library but generic android camera app recognises this as a JSON.
Is there an issue with coding?

I've checked and it's not recognized as any other type of code (types from 4.3.1 library version).

Upgrading an app requires react-native upgrade so it's bigger deal for me.
Is it fixed in newest library?

Reproduceable Code

const device = useCameraDevice('back');

  const codeScanner = useCodeScanner({
    codeTypes: ['qr'],
    onCodeScanned: (codes) => {
      logger.debug(
        'Codes scanned:',
        codes.map((c: Code) => `${c.type}: ${c.value}`)
      );
      const readValue = codes[0].value;
      if (readValue) {
        logger.info('Code scanned:', readValue);
        if (showReadValue) setQrcode(readValue);
        props.onQRread(readValue);
      } else {
        logger.warn('Scanned empty code');
      }
    }
  });

Can you reproduce this issue in the VisionCamera Example app?

I didn't try (⚠️ your issue might get ignored & closed if you don't try this)

Guten Tag, Hans here! 🍻

It looks like you have a valid concern with scanning a specific QR code. However, I see you did not try reproducing the issue in the VisionCamera Example app. It’s very important to do so, as it can help us determine if the issue is specific to your implementation or a broader problem with the library.

Also, please ensure that you are using the latest versions of both the library and the React Native environment. If you can provide additional logs from adb logcat when attempting to scan the QR code, it would greatly assist mrousavy in addressing your issue.

And remember, if you want to support ongoing development and get faster responses, consider sponsoring the project here.

Looking forward to your updates!

Note: If you think I made a mistake, please ping @mrousavy to take a look.
