my packages.json

In your, MainApplication.java remove the call of TrackPlayer in getPackages function

[atulmy]

After removing TrackPlayer in getPackages function, the app crashes

I had the same issue - removing the add TrackPlayer to the packages list caused the app to crash with a missing library.
Adding this line to build.gradle in dependencies allowed it to run again:

implementation 'androidx.localbroadcastmanager:localbroadcastmanager:1.0.0'
