Same on my side. It happens to me with react-native 0.60.3. This line is what makes the app crashing:
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.3.4'
If I remove it, my app doesn't crash anymore (but I don't have messaging anymore obviously).

Same here. This configuration was working for quite some time already, but now it crashes.
My deps:

    implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.7'
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.4.0"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-config:17.0.0"

Seems like https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/issues/1420 again but for slightly newer environment react-native-firebase 5.2.2 here.

Same here...

Unable to instantiate service io.invertase.firebase.messaging.RNFirebaseInstanceIdService

Dependencies:
implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.8" implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.5.0"

I have the same problem
I found that uncomment these code below on AndroidManifest.xml solve my problem

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

Seems like it doesn't fully support autolinking yet. with react native 0.60.4 what works for me is to link it like this in MainApplication.java:

import io.invertase.firebase.messaging.RNFirebaseMessagingPackage;
import io.invertase.firebase.links.RNFirebaseLinksPackage; 
import io.invertase.firebase.config.RNFirebaseRemoteConfigPackage;
import io.invertase.firebase.notifications.RNFirebaseNotificationsPackage;
....

    @Override
    protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
      @SuppressWarnings("UnnecessaryLocalVariable")
      List<ReactPackage> packages = new PackageList(this).getPackages();
      // Packages that cannot be autolinked yet can be added manually here, for
      // example:
      packages.add(new RNFirebaseMessagingPackage());
      packages.add(new RNFirebaseLinksPackage());
      packages.add(new RNFirebaseRemoteConfigPackage());
      packages.add(new RNFirebaseNotificationsPackage());
      return packages;
    }

in build.gradle:

dependencies {
    // This should be here already
    implementation project(':react-native-firebase')

    // Firebase dependencies
    implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:16.1.0"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.9"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-config:17.0.0"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-invites:17.0.0"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:18.0.0"
    implementation 'me.leolin:ShortcutBadger:1.1.21@aar'
