My app keeps crashing after manually linking the library about react-native-geolocation-service HOT 24 CLOSED

For me, app crashes right after starts
@Agontuk 's answer worked for me.
I changed following

dependencies {
   compile(project(':react-native-geolocation-service')){
   compile(project(':react-native-maps'))

   ......
}

to

dependencies {
   compile(project(':react-native-geolocation-service')){
       exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms', module: 'play-services-location'
   }
   compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.0.0' 

   compile(project(':react-native-maps')){
       exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms', module: 'play-services-base'
       exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms', module: 'play-services-maps'
   }
   compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:11.0.0'
   compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:11.0.0'
    
   ......
}

Just doing following didn't work

dependencies {
    ...
    compile(project(':react-native-geolocation-service')) {
        exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms', module: 'play-services-location'
    }
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.0.0'
}

That means, you need to exclude all the play-services-xxxx modules used in every lib that uses play services.

from react-native-geolocation-service.

react-native-camera seems to also use play service plugin. Can you try this instead:

dependencies {
  compile(project(':react-native-geolocation-service')) {
    exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms', module: 'play-services-location'
  }
  compile project(':react-native-fetch-blob')
  compile project(':react-native-android-location-services-dialog-box')
  compile project(':react-native-android-settings-library')
  compile project(':react-native-open-setting')
  compile project(':react-native-fs')
  compile project(':react-native-vector-icons')
  compile project(':react-native-linear-gradient')
  compile(project(':react-native-camera')) {
    exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms', module: 'play-services-vision'
  }
  compile(project(':react-native-fcm')) {
    exclude group: 'com.google.firebase', module: 'firebase-core'
    exclude group: 'com.google.firebase', module: 'firebase-messaging'
  }
  compile fileTree(dir: "libs", include: ["*.jar"])
  compile "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:24.0.0"
  compile "com.facebook.react:react-native:+" // From node_modules
  compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:11.0.0'
  compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:11.0.0'
  compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.0.0'
  compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-vision:11.0.0'
}

If this doesn't work, try to create a demo repository with this issue so I can clone it & test.

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Provide a crash log otherwise I won't know what happened.

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Alright, thanks for the quick reply any ideas on how I can log this crash? Do I have to use an external service like Crashlytics? I'm sorry I'm quite new at android development

from react-native-geolocation-service.

In terminal, run adb shell logcat "*:E" "*:S", then launch the app. If it crashes, there'll new logs in terminal.

from react-native-geolocation-service.

This isn't giving me a log maybe because my app is crashing right after. I ran adb logcat instead and it gave a huge log. I'm pasting some of it below:

Is this helpful at all?

from react-native-geolocation-service.

You're probably using other google play service libraries that are using different versions. You need to use the same version for all google play service plugin. Can you share which libraries you are using in your project ?

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Thanks for helping out, these are the android dependencies I'm using:

dependencies {
compile project(':react-native-geolocation-service')
compile project(':react-native-fetch-blob')
compile project(':react-native-android-location-services-dialog-box')
compile project(':react-native-android-settings-library')
compile project(':react-native-open-setting')
compile project(':react-native-fs')
compile project(':react-native-vector-icons')
compile project(':react-native-linear-gradient')
compile project(':react-native-camera')
compile project(':react-native-fcm')
compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:11.0.0'
compile fileTree(dir: "libs", include: ["*.jar"])

compile "com.facebook.react:react-native:+" // From node_modules
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.0.0'
}

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Check if this works for you.

Thanks for the quick replies! it still is crashing instantly saying "App has stopped working" on my phone.

This is the logcat

--------- beginning of crash
--------- beginning of system
--------- beginning of main

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Can you try checking the logs again? Try with adb shell logcat and when app crashes you'll see bunch of new logs. Just copy the relevant log and post it here.

from react-native-geolocation-service.

I have shortened the crash log because it was huge to the last bit which seems most relevant. Here you go:

Would information before this java class rejection error be useful to you too?

from react-native-geolocation-service.

These logs are enough for now. Did you run react-native run-android after updating the build.gradle file ? You need to build again after any native change. Also just to be sure, please clone the repo and check if the example project works on your end.

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Yes I ran react-native run-android after linking the library. Alright I will clone it and get back to you

from react-native-geolocation-service.

No, I meant after applying the dependencies change I posted earlier.

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Yes I did that too, just built it again to recheck it, and it's still crashing

from react-native-geolocation-service.

The example app does not crash on my phone but it's location request keeps timing out (I tried being outdoors and tested it too).

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Which device are you using for testing?

from react-native-geolocation-service.

I am using Samsung Galaxy J5 Prime with Android Version 7.0

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Try disabling power saving, Access battery settings > app power saving > details > Your App > disabled and see if it helps. Also check the log after clicking Get Location button and post it here.

As for your project, try to see if there's a mismatch between different google play plugins. You can check the dependencies by cd android && ./gradlew app:dependencies.

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Hi, apologies for the late response. I tried my best to fix this error and changed every occurrence of play-services to 11.8.0 and this is the result of cd android && ./gradlew app:dependencies.

This seems to be okay to me, could the error be somewhere else? Unless I'm missing something of course

from react-native-geolocation-service.

Hi could running this library on a previous react-native version be an issue?

from react-native-geolocation-service.

I feel that react-native version made a difference, I created a new react-native init project with the same android dependencies and this wasn't an issue anymore.
