Not thoroughly I guess 😄
I was missing:
compile(project(":react-native-google-signin")){
exclude group: "com.google.android.gms" // very important
}
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:9.2.1' // should be at least 9.0.0
in build.gradle
Thanks.

Looks like the library is not linked properly. Did you follow Android installation guide?
