I have the same problem on android 7.0 with RN 0.48.4

I had the same problem. In this file, there is a reference to a primary_dark color.

So, try to add the primary_dark in res/values/colors.xml (create the file if not exists) :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
  <color name="primary_dark">#000000</color>
</resources>

@kbarralon I solved the problem in the same way.

Thanks, @kbarralon. Adding the reference to "primary_dark" solved the problem. I think this should be an optional step.

I had tried it, when downgrade to 3.0.1, It works fine. but 3.0.6 failed without colors.xml

I've put up a PR to fix this (see #125) which will allow custom theming, but doesn't force it.

It'll fix the BC break introduced in version 3.0.6.
