Description
Describe the bug
As from version 3 for server side, the socket.io-client for flutter android does not connect and keeps saying connection error where as version 2 works quite alright but the maintenance message is enough to be scared of.
There should be sync update and support with the flutter app as well as it works in javascript frameworks.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the connection error with a Flutter Android client against a version 3 server, then compare the same setup with client version 2 and a JavaScript framework. Check whether the Flutter client can connect reliably to the server version 3 protocol; done means the reported connection error no longer occurs and the compatibility expectations are documented.
