Im not sure if this will fix it. Just added the import into our coding here and it still gives an error:

error: cannot find symbol
        Logger.error(TAG, message, exception);
                     ^
  symbol:   variable TAG
  location: class ContactsPlugin

@lb-ovc Does this help? 06dd334 (#130)

I'm currently having problems with my local setup and can't build this one plugin. I don't know why yet. That's why I created this PR: #131

Yes this solved those issues. While testing with different images we encountered that the createContact fails sometimes. I was able to narrow it down to the image.

Not sure why it happens tho.

The minified react error is: https://react.dev/errors/31?invariant=31&args%5B%5D=%5Bobject%20Error%5D

Im not sure why that error would occure in the first place because we do not use the reponse of the createContact method any further.

sadly the error message is not very good and just says something went wrong:

[lb-ovc]

We will remove the image prop for now and add it later when the new feature is properly tested and fixed

That's strange. It works for me 100% of the time.

sadly the error message is not very good and just says something went wrong:

You must print the error in this line:

contacts/android/src/main/java/getcapacitor/community/contacts/Contacts.java

Line 347 in ec880ff

// @TODO: we might want to throw an error somehow

@lb-ovc I just tested my implementation again using the following dev build and everything worked without issues:

npm i @capacitor-community/contacts@6.1.0-dev.852577c.1727177586

Feel free to create a separate issue with some more details about your problem and i will take a look.

I guess that means your image (base64 string) is too big. We should throw this error so that we can handle it in the WebView. Please create a separate issue for that. As a workaround, I recommend compressing your image before you call the createContact() method.

Yeah, the image has 2mb.

Will create the issue later that evening. We will be implementing this in the next sprint then.

Getting the same issue here when attempting to build.

yeah same problem.. PR is not merged yet so we need to wait for that for now.
Consider making a patch file to add the missing import and TAG for now

Same issue here. The last release don't work on Android.

I used this version and it's building correctly now. Hopefully it will be incorporated soon.
