Error 8038: Unknown status code

Title pretty much says it all. I'm getting this error when trying to initiate NFC on my pixel 6. Here's the full error:

[ERROR:flutter/lib/ui/ui_dart_state.cc(209)] Unhandled Exception: PlatformException(Failure, 8038: unknown status code: 8038, null, null)

Seems to be a permission issue on Android 12.

Could you try this solution posted on stackoverflow - https://stackoverflow.com/a/70318674/7186086

So I added the permissions they mentioned in that post. However, I'm still getting the error. I was reading through the docs on the new permissions and it seems like I need to specifically request these permissions, not just put them in the manifest file, I think similar to how I request the location permissions through the Nearby().askLocationPermissions() function.

I have published a new version with Android 12 fixes- https://pub.dev/packages/nearby_connections/versions/3.2.0.

The compileSdkVersion may need to be set to 32 for applications though.
