Description
It sounds like enableLocationRequest() is making basic permission requests but needs to allow the fine-grain perms as options if you need them.
if you end up getting this bellow error during the request for permission
JS: ERROR Error: java. lang.SecurityException: my location requires permission ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION or ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION for now we might need to use the https://github.com/nativescript-community/perms plugin to request permission on Andriod until it is fixed.
We need to fix this or add this note to the Readme.

Research direction
Start at the enableLocationRequest() entry point and reproduce the Android permission request that raises the reported SecurityException. Check the README for existing permission guidance and compare the current behavior with the referenced nativescript-community/perms plugin; done means the request works for the required location permissions or the README clearly documents the limitation.
