Can you help me ?

[rjp44]

I've just updated this module in an otherwise working project using an existing GCM key and also now get this error so I guess the recent PR that added Firebase Messaging may have broken GCM in some subtle way. I've not reviewed the new Android install instructions so it may be user error on my part.

Will investigate further this morning and try to fix locally in which case that may help you.

One thing I notice above is that you are using the Firebase Android Manifest lines, are you using a Firebase key and not a GCM key?

[quocman1982]

Dear rjp44,

Thank you for your reply, I sure I'm using Firebase Key. But the stranger thing is when I past the GCM Android Manifest lines in to Manifest file. In this case I did received notification and then it still crash (I'm not received notification if I just using Firebase Manifest lines) . Hope this help to debug.

[rjp44]

OK, so I can solve the problem (for me), by backing out the change introduced in #717 (commit 44cb230 ) to RNPushNotificationListnerService which starts deriving it from FireBaseListenerService.

I'm trying to use GCM in an existing project though, not Firebase so this probably won't help you as I guess it will further break attempts to use the Firebase API.

At the very least it seems like #717 breaks GCM, and may not work with Firebase either. I'm certainly not an expert on Google APIs but from 5 mins reading the code it seems to use the GCM calls to Register the ID, then use the FireBase Listener on it. Maybe that is an OK thing to do, but if I revert it at least GCM starts working again.

[quocman1982]

OK with me because I'm using react-native-fcm now hope this will fix soon.

[Luckygirlllll]

@rjp44 So what did you change in the code exactly? I'm getting the same error.

[rjp44]

I just backed out the edit to RNPushNotificationListenerService.java in the commit I reference above and changed the definition back to:
public class RNPushNotificationListenerService extends GcmListenerService
This got my GCM based project working again, but defeats that commit if you need Firebase.

[burkek]

I am also having this issue, exact same error logged. I'm using Firebase (with the GCM lines included in the manifest) and can get the notifications but they crash the app regardless if it is closed or not. The notification, however, remains in the tray and tapping it opens the app as expected.

When running my app on a HTC ( 'HTC 2PS6200 - 6.0.1') it all works fine. I get the above issue and don't receive any local notifications either when running Oreo on a Galaxy S7

compileSdkVersion   = 26
targetSdkVersion    = 26
buildToolsVersion   = "26.0.2"
supportLibVersion   = "26.1.0"
googlePlayServicesVersion = "11.8.0"
firebaseVer = "17.0.0"

UPDATE:
Changing targetSdkVersion to 25 seems to have fixed this.
I have successfully sent a message using FCM and I can get also localNotifications on both phones. I have react-native-push-notification@3.0.2 installed.

here is my full AndroidManifest.xml in case it helps.

Dropping back to API 25 isn't really a solution for most folks, especially as Google won't be accepting new app submissions with API < 26 from 1st August (tomorrow!).

Looks like 3.1.1 has been pushed to npm with this crasher bug in it.

[Gp2mv3]

Hello guys,
Can you try with the master branch of this repo ?
We merged some code for FCM support, maybe it solves the issue ?

[giankotarola]

@Gp2mv3 Perhaps I'm wrong because I tested in an emulator, but here is what I see with adb logcat when I send a notification. Hope it can help

adb logcat:

UPDATE:

After reading https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/android/android-migrate-fcm I delete all <!-- <Only if you're using GCM> --> in AndroidManifest and set firebaseVersion = "17.0.0", but I got this error:

Looking in Stackoverflow I found this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50819595/error-when-push-notification-by-postman-but-not-when-send-by-firebase-console?noredirect=1&lq=1

A comment said: This is a known issue but should not affect your application in anyway other than the warning message in the log. The FCM team is looking into it, so I set firebaseVersion = "15.0.0" and it works 😬!

---

UPDATE 2:
I noticed that app is crashing if I send from server notification field (nodejs and firebase-admin). Tested with firebaseVersion 17.1.0 and react-native-push-notification: 3.1.1.

Change:

{
      token: registrationToken,
      notification: {
        title: '$GOOG up 1.43% on the day',
        body: '$GOOG gained 11.80 points to close at 835.67, up 1.43% on the day.',
      },
      data: {
        hello: 'world',
      },
};

To:

{
      token: registrationToken,
      data: {
        hello: 'world',
        notification: JSON.stringify({
            title: '$GOOG up 1.43% on the day',
            body: '$GOOG gained 11.80 points to close at 835.67, up 1.43% on the day.',
        }),
      },
};

3.1.1 I have same issue with remote notifications. Local notifs seem to work fine:

I have tried both react-native-push-notification 3.1.1 from npm library and also to target package.json against the master branch on this repo. Same result.

Crashes with the result below:

EDIT:
I tried @giankotarola solution and set fireBase version to 15.0.0 in build.gradle. Now remote notifications works, the app does not crash, but local notifications does not work.

[giankotarola]

@hanssonfredrik Have you try with react-native: 0.56.0??

I don't have any problems with this config:

targetSdkVersion 26
compileSdkVersion 26
buildToolsVersion "26.0.3"
react-native: 0.56.0
react-native-push-notification: 3.1.1
Android version: 8.0 / 8.1

[andrei-m-code]

@giankotarola could you please show us your package.json and compile gradle compile section
