React-native-firebase: Multiple dex files define Lcom/google/firebase/iid/zzb;

[BlakeRxxk]

After adding this package i've got this error

Dex: Error converting bytecode to dex:

}

Also I'm trying to exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms' -same error

RN: 0.43.3

Any ideas?

Thanks

Annoyingly this is down to a conflict of versions somewhere. For example react-native-push-notification has compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:+', so you need to exclude that as well. You'll need to go through each package and check for conflicts between them. Our own build.gradle has all sorts excluded all over the place.

[Ehesp]

RNFirebase uses: me.leolin:ShortcutBadger:1.1.10@aar
RNPush-Notifications uses: me.leolin:ShortcutBadger:1.1.8@aar

I'd suggest excluding from both, and then adding yourself afterwards. RNFirebase does handle FCM push messages though, so is the latter needed?

[BlakeRxxk]

So, i'm tried to exclude play services from react-native-push-notification and get error after app launch

I'm a little bit confused. Im trying exclude group from both packages

I got the same conflict with react-native-device-info and solved it with :

    compile (project(':react-native-device-info')) {
        exclude group: "com.google.android.gms"
    }

[SamMatthewsIsACommonName]

@BlakeRxxk did you manage to get it working? I'm getting the same thing with 'Code 2' and then 'unfortunately my app has stopped'

[Salakar]

@BlakeRxxk that's because you're running on GenyMotion emulator - does not have google play services installed on the emulator. See the geny motion instructions for adding play services to the emulator.

[Salakar]

@SamMatthewsIsACommonName code 2 just means it's out of date, update your emulator to the lastest build - or turn the errorOnMissingPlayServices option to false on the firebase.initializeApp(optsHere) bit.

[SamMatthewsIsACommonName]

Hey @Salakar thanks for getting back. Turning the option to false worked thanks! To clarify, when the project requires google play services e.g 10.2.0, does that mean all users would need to have google play services 10.20.0 or higher installed on the phone?

[Salakar]

Its the google services that's builtin on the emulator that's the issue e.g. Play Store, just need to get a new emulator image with updated google services on the SDK Manager. It's separate to anything in the gradle files.

Code 2 just means it's slightly out of date and could potentially cause issues if the user doesn't update services on their device. Code 9 in @BlakeRxxk 's case means the device doesn't have it at all - usual for genymotion emulators.

@chrisbianca added an option to automatically prompt the user to update using android's built in method: https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/commit/baa198ea7d4e28d72900ede81f5d5dba8b7d440e - not been released yet though I don't think.

Worth noting this is an android only issue as Firebase requires Google Play Services on the device to work, ios it does not.

[BlakeRxxk]

Thank you @Salakar

[rewieer]

I had this very problem with react-native-maps. My solution was to apply this.

[policz]

The below is the issue, when i run react-native run-android after configuring firebase to my react-native
project. please find the attachments below(for better understanding i have changed the file names here)
