I had the same issue, I've fixed it by using:

implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:18.0.0'

which was:

implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.5.0"

I've tested it with com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.5.0, I can confirm that using 18.0.0 fixed the crash that happens only one time, at starting the app.

I am using "react-native-firebase": "~5.5.0" and implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.8"

I have just checked that if I remove this from manifest the error doesn't occur:

  <service android:name="io.invertase.firebase.messaging.RNFirebaseInstanceIdService">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.google.firebase.INSTANCE_ID_EVENT"/>
            </intent-filter>
        </service>

Any ideas?

Have you added the RNFirebaseMessagingPackage to your MainApplication.java as explained here? https://rnfirebase.io/docs/v4.0.x/messaging/android#Install-the-RNFirebase-Messaging-package

chrisbianca picture chrisbianca on 6 May 2018

Yes.
Actually the error only happens if i keep this piece of code in
manifest.xml and only occurs the first time the app is launched.





If I remove this the error doesn't occur.

Yes, but you need that in for messaging and notifications to work correctly.
The error implies that the class isn't been found when building, which itself implies that it's not being imported properly.

Adding the messaging module should ensure that this file is included.

What version of RNFirebase do you have installed? This is all part of v4+

I encountered this error out of the blue running react-native-firebase v^4.x on an Android device. I ran npm start -- --reset-cache and rebuilt my project and it went away.

@Pushpi1992 I have the same problem. Did you find a solution to resolve this crash ?

SuperBesse picture SuperBesse on 8 Nov 2018

Just got this same error today!
The installation was done and working, but I cleared the cache and reinstalled the packages…
I checked the installation and is done according to https://rnfirebase.io/docs/v4.0.x/messaging/android#Install-the-RNFirebase-Messaging-package

My package.json has: "react-native-firebase": "^5.0.0"

EDIT: reverting from 5.4.0 to 5.2.3 fixed it!

@Manhazito the doc you posted was for v4.0.x, so it may not be correct for v.5.x.x, and v5.3.2+ of react-native-firebase requires react-native 0.59.3+. You have to be very careful of exact dependencies or disaster can strike quickly unfortunately

I had the same issue, I've fixed it by using:

implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:18.0.0'

which was:

implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.5.0"

I've tested it with com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.5.0, I can confirm that using 18.0.0 fixed the crash that happens only one time, at starting the app.

I am using "react-native-firebase": "~5.5.0" and implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.8"

@hopewise Thank you for sharing your solution.

I had the exact same issue and updated my "react-native-firebase" version to the latest and also changed the implementation to be 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:18.0.0'

It seems to work fine now, thanks!

BracketMan picture BracketMan on 19 Jul 2019

I updated per @hopewise's advice, and my crash is gone, Thank you! However, now that I've updated to firebase-messaging:18.0.0, should I "match" my other google/firebase versions? If so, how do I know which versions to choose? Thank you.

    implementation ('com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:16.1.0') {
        force = true
    }
    implementation ('com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:16.1.0') {
        force = true
    }
    implementation ('com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:16.0.0') {
        force = true
    }  
    // Firebase dependencies
    implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:16.0.1"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.8"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:18.0.0"
...
    implementation 'com.facebook.react:react-native:0.59.10'

I have stopped attempting to match all the dependencies on my own and use the new "Bill of Materials" (bom) style. My project looks like this now and it is so much cleaner while maintaining a coherent / tested-together set of versions:

    implementation platform("com.google.firebase:firebase-bom:22.2.0")
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-core"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-auth"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-perf"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-config"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-functions"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-storage"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-dynamic-links"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging"
    implementation 'com.crashlytics.sdk.android:crashlytics'

(note that I may be out of date though - I make an effort to stay current but check android release notes to verify that bom version before just blindly using it)

Thanks, @mikehardy! I was unaware of BOM

carlwelchdesign picture carlwelchdesign on 19 Sep 2019

Yeah - they're selling it as beta right now so we've been hesitant to put it in the docs but I'm starting to anyway. I have had no problems and it's such a better experience. Glad you like it - cheers

Still facing this issue in react-native-firebase version 5.5.6

deepas96 picture deepas96 on 14 May 2020

@deepas96 how's it work for you on v7.0.1? (the supported version)

mikehardy picture mikehardy on 14 May 2020

No @mikehardy I tried installing the latest version v7.0.1 but it did not work. Still crashing on first launch and on receiving any push notification. Please suggest some fix for this.. It was working fine earlier in v5.5.6 only, but since I added crashlytics to it, It just started crashing.
My react-native version is: "0.59.8"

This issue is closed and super old. I'd suggest opening a new issue with full details, including a full stack trace of the crash from unfiltered logcat (android) or console.app with device plugged in (ios)

mikehardy picture mikehardy on 15 May 2020

I changed the react-native-firebase version to 5.6.0 and updated following things:
In app/build.gradle- implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:+'
In build.gradle - classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:+'
Earlier they were added with version written as 18.0.0. & 3.2.1 respectively for messaging and google-services.
Now my app did not crash on first launch and not even on receiving notification..

Cheers!!

deepas96 picture deepas96 on 15 May 2020

I have the same problem with @deepas96 and I am using "^6.7.1" with crashlytics:

    "@react-native-firebase/analytics": "^6.7.2",
    "@react-native-firebase/app": "^6.7.1",
    "@react-native-firebase/crashlytics": "^6.7.1",
    "@react-native-firebase/dynamic-links": "^6.7.1",
    "@react-native-firebase/in-app-messaging": "^6.7.1",
    "@react-native-firebase/messaging": "^6.7.1",
afilp picture afilp on 27 May 2020

@afilp Try updating to latest v7.xx releases, they bring in the more up to date upstream firebase SDKs which might resolve things with no more effort than that

mikehardy picture mikehardy on 27 May 2020

@mikehardy Thank you, I am a little confused with the documentation, I believe the crash is related to the messaging module but when I try to add crashlytics I am stuck with the message: "Add the SDK, then build and run your app"

Should we follow these instructions here?...
https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/get-started?platform=android&authuser=0#add-crashlytics

Or only these here?... (they are different and have less additions)
https://rnfirebase.io/crashlytics/android-setup

afilp picture afilp on 28 May 2020

@afilp for react-native-firebase, follow rnfirebase.io exclusively unless it specifically points you to upstream docs. The module does a great deal of the necessary integration steps for you, made possible because of the react-native build+startup pathways hooks during compile/startup giving the module control and allowing it to do many of the integration steps
