Flipper: couldn't find DSO to load: libflipperfb.so Not working in Emulator only

[sajidjutt7]

🐛 Bug Report

For earlier information: I was getting this error on build. it was not letting me build project.

Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'. Android resource linking failed

which i resolved by Migration of support libraries to AndroidX. Doing that above issue resolved and my code start building.

Now after adding complete setup of flipper under build.gradle, AndroidManifest and MyApplication class. When i go to run project. my app is getting crash with logs i am posting below.

But the same code when i run on actual device. Mobile. Code is working which i can also verifry from logs that fbflipper is intiallized and etc.

But same code is not working on any Emulator. I have tried 4 different emulators from Android 22 to Android P.

Posting the Emulator crash logs below. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

To Reproduce

I have just tried to downgrade the version from this

    debugImplementation 'com.facebook.flipper:flipper:0.22.0'
    debugImplementation 'com.facebook.soloader:soloader:0.6.0'

to this

    debugImplementation 'com.facebook.flipper:flipper:0.21.1'
    debugImplementation 'com.facebook.soloader:soloader:0.5.1'

It is now working on both Devices as well as emulators.

This issue is now closed. I am just telling that previous version is working. But getting error on 0.22.0

Thanks @kuhnroyal . But in #471 no one tells. how can i delete x86 deps to test if 2.0.0 is working on emulator?

[kuhnroyal]

Try to use 0.23.0 and clear all cache, uninstall the old app etc. before rebuilding

Thanks @kuhnroyal updating library to 0.23.0 soloader to 0.6.0 is working. Thanks
