Description

Expected behaviour

I am getting this error on my release on play store for some users. I don't know the exact behavior. Here are crash report:

Research direction
The crash occurs in AndroidPermissionService.checkSelfPermission and DexterInstance, likely due to an unknown exception code from Parcel. The root cause may be a race condition or device specific permission state. Reproduction steps are missing; try to simulate permission denial in emulator. Check if there are any recent changes in Dexter's permission checking logic. Also review comments for any additional clues.
