NFC fails identity card NFC ID on /e/ 3.2

Hi,

I have tried to use my Samsung Galaxy Note S8 phone /w /e/OS 3.2 installed to do an online banking identification account registration procedure. using the phone and my NFC enabled personal identity card.

Steps to reproduce:

PRECONDITION

  • Download and install online banking app for particular bank to perform online ID via identity card NFC functionality.
  • Run app, log into online account (already registered) and perform online ID steps until NFC required (take pictures of identity card, enter PIN of identity card).
  • Have personal identity card available that has NFC enabled for identification procedures.

ACTION

  • Use NFC functionality to complete NFC identification procedure with personal identity card (hold card at rear side of Samsung Galaxy Note S8 phone).

OBSERVED BEHAVIOUR

  • A bleep is heard that something happened, but app reports failure of NFC process with no further details. Possible to start over the whole tedious process again, just not possible to simply repeat NFC step.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR

  • A bleep is heard, NFC procedure successfull to authentificate via NFC procedure. Identification procedure completes OK.

Note: I have had NFC app installed to check any NFC capable type of card held to phone. I have deinstalled it to avoid any overlap of NFC functionality, but did not solve it. The app actually found the id card and displayed some content although it also said it did not know the type of card. So at least I know the whole NFC should actually work.

I have the same issue on Fairphone 3 (bought from Murena store) and the official Slovenian national ID app and card.
