Android: NFC detection when camera preview is on

I have a qr/barcode scanner in my application and NFC detection. The NFC detection works fine. I receive the onNewIntent in my Activity.

The issue is that this method isn't called anymore when I have my barcode scanner active.

After debugging, I found that it stops detecting nfc when I call:

mCamera.startPreview();

The Camera is used in a Fragment, which is added to the Activity. This is a strange issue.

Is it possible to detect NFC and having the camera open + preview at the same time?

Edit https://stackoverflow.com/a/34678864/1723525 This issue was on my Nexus 5X. No clue if this will be an issue for only this device or more devices..

Yes, it is normally possible to have camera open and detect NFC at the same time. I have it working with ZXing in more than one project.
