v4.2.0 crashes on pre-lollipop android devices #645

Closed ShivamPokhriyal closed 2 years ago

ShivamPokhriyal commented 2 years ago

Description of the problem:

The readme has instructions for using the latest version on older API levels https://github.com/journeyapps/zxing-android-embedded#older-sdk-versions, but when used, the app crashes on devices running on API < 21.

The reason for the crash is the use of AudioAttributes introduced in this PR https://github.com/journeyapps/zxing-android-embedded/pull/587. AudioAttributes was added in API level 21.

Related Issue: https://github.com/journeyapps/zxing-android-embedded/issues/643

We should probably update the README and explicitly mention that the latest version isn't compatible with API < 21 devices.

Which library version are you using? E.g. 4.2.0.

Which phone/tablet are you using, and which Android version does it run? (e.g. Samsung Galaxy S5, Android 5.0) Android 4.4.2 and 4.4.4

In the case of an error do you have a stack trace or adb logs?
