Android 9 or below, the camera does not work properly

[shaikhaquib]

Issue Description:

When working on Android 9 or below, the camera does not work properly. It takes time to initialize, and sometimes it only displays a black screen. Additionally, when we click on capture, the loader keeps loading indefinitely.

Calling:

  imagePicker
            .allowCrop(false)
            .allowCompress(true, 80)
            .allowGalleryOnly(false)
            .allowCameraOnly(true)
            .start()

Logs:
