在Google Play商店上载APK后，React本机应用程序崩溃，这仅是第一次崩溃

Question

I am working on an app using react-native. After generating Apk using ./gradlew assembleRelease everything works fine. But when I upload the apk on google play store and installs, it crashes only for the first time. And gives the below error.

Fatal Exception: java.lang.IllegalAccessError
Interface com.google.android.gms.internal.measurement.zzge implemented by class com.google.android.gms.measurement.AppMeasurementInstallReferrerReceiver is inaccessible (declaration of 'com.google.android.gms.measurement.AppMeasurementInstallReferrerReceiver' appears in base.apk)

I have tried changing proguard-rules.pro

# firebase
-dontwarn com.google.android.gms.**
-keep class com.google.android.gms.** { *; }
-keep class com.google.firebase.** { *; } 
-keep class io.invertase.firebase.** { *; }
-dontwarn io.invertase.firebase.**

I have also tried adding this code inside AndroidManifest.xml file

<receiver
         android:name="com.google.android.gms.measurement.AppMeasurementInstallReferrerReceiver"
android:permission="android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES"
android:enabled="true">
<intent-filter>
  <action android:name="com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER"/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>

This issue is not coming with release apk being directed installed and checked but only happens when apk is uploaded on play store and downloaded for the first time.

I have been trying this for a couple of days now. I would be glad if someone helps me with this issue.

Answer 1

I finally found the solution to this problem. This was not related proguard rules but due to the version mismatch of using firebase and google libraries. Check all the gms libraries version and firebase library version and use the versions which are mentioned to be used together. Checkout google libraries release version and support libraries version .
