Could not sign in Google account on android emulator with react-native app

Question

I have react-native app, and it works thru Google account. And when i launch my app on android emulator i can not sign in Google account. Get an error: "There was a problem communicating with Google servers. Try again later". My steps to reproduction:

• Reinstalled app and android emulator.
• Cleaned app and emulator cache.
• Checked different emulators model with different API.
• Tried to sign in Google account in android emulator from google chrome, from Settings => Accounts => Add Account => Google.

And all this steps is not working for me. Every time the same situation: the process of loading, spinner is launching about a minute, and after get an error: "Could not sign in". Can somebody help me please.

Answer 1

i have found the decision. The deal is my emulator was not connected to internet. My step was:

1. Check environment emulator path and make sure it is like this - MacOS: ~/Library/Android/sdk/emulator, Windows: C:\Users%Username%\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\emulator.
2. Check your available emulators list: emulator -list-avds.
3. Run your available emulator with dns server set to 8.8.8.8: emulator @{YourEmulator} -dns-server 8.8.8.8. And after you can get access to Google from your android emulator.
