It's possible that the blank screen you're seeing is the splashscreen without the icon resource being rendered, which is a bug within the android platform. The splash screen will be black or dark if the device is using a night/dark theme.

Having a small video clip of what you're seeing can probably tell us if this is the issue you're experiencing.

Thanks.

Yah that's a strange one, that black screen isn't the splashscreen. If it was, it would have been black immediately before seeing your application view, and then typically the splashscreen will get dismissed showing your application view.

Here we see your application view, without seeing any splashscreen immediately, and then the screen goes black. So I don't think it's actally that splashscreen bug that I linked above.

Is this issue reproducible in a sample test application? If you can provide one, it will help isolate the cause away from your own application and/or any plugins that your project might be running which will in turn help find the root cause.
