NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Lcom/google/android/gms/common/util/zzw #463

TacticalSlothmaster · 2018-08-02T12:39:03Z

Hi,

I updated my dependencies in my app/build.gradle. Now I get the following red-screen error when I start my app (everything else is building correctly):

Java exception in 'NativeModules'

This only happens on android. I tried to add

compile ("com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:16.1.0") {
            force = true;
        }

in my dependencies, but with no luck.

my android settings:

compileSdkVersion 27
buildToolsVersion "27.0.1"
...
minSdkVersion 16
targetSdkVersion 27
Device: Samsung Galaxy S6

also, I tried to do the following suggestions:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51036749/react-native-device-info-crash-the-app-on-android
but that didn't work either.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Hey I had the same problem, I've resolved it by adding googlePlayServicesVersion=X.X.X in the gradle.properties file in the android folder. Tell me if it works for you ^^

dwidc · 2018-08-15T19:45:40Z

I also got the same problem recently. After hours of trials and errors (and hair pulling), turned out it's simply because of version mismatch between 'play-services-gcm' and 'firebase-messaging'.

I have "com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:10.2.6" set on app/build.gradle dependencies.
But I never set or include 'firebase-messaging', it's probably included implicitly by one of library.

To force versions used by library, you can set it on app/build.gradle:

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy {  
        // ...
        force 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:10.2.6'
        force 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:10.2.6'
    }
}

or

dependencies {
    // ...
    compile ('com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:10.2.6') {
        force = true;
    }
    compile ('com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:10.2.6') {
        force = true;
    }
}

either one will give the same result, I prefer the first one because it's easy on eyes.

That's it, it fixes the dreaded red screen NoClassDefFoundError for me.

You might want to verify versions used by library dependencies.

To see actual versions used by dependencies, check your '\android\app\build\intermediates\exploded-aar\' folder.

For example in my pc I have:
\exploded-aar\com.google.android.gms\play-services-gcm\10.2.6\ and
\exploded-aar\com.google.firebase\firebase-messaging\10.2.6\ folder,
which is good because both versions are the same.

Make sure libraries inside \com.google.android.gms\ and \com.google.firebase\ all use the same version.

If all above still fails, as last resort you can try disable InstanceID check on RNDeviceModule.java.

https://github.com/rebeccahughes/react-native-device-info/blob/02d63b9aabf7f553abe77bb72bc024f35ef1db68/android/src/main/java/com/learnium/RNDeviceInfo/RNDeviceModule.java#L270-L276

You can find it on your local \node_modules\react-native-device-info\android\src\main\java\com\learnium\RNDeviceInfo\RNDeviceModule.java

That InstanceID.getInstance().getId() line is where you get the red screen runtime error of NoClassDefFoundError.

I try commenting it out at first, and it works preventing NoClassDefFoundError.
But it's a quick hack, it doesn't solve the main problem. Only use it if you're in a hurry. 😉

Hope this helps.

Can confirm that setting the googlePlayServicesVersion flag solved this for me too.

mikehardy · 2019-03-10T20:12:10Z

@machour closable - another failure to install correctly, but the library definitely works according to instructions (I just installed it...) - people need to define their specific versions in android/build.gradle then the modules will use the right version

thanks @mikehardy from here
evollu/react-native-fcm#998
Sijad's solution works for me.

mikehardy · 2019-11-21T14:01:20Z

Works only in the sense your compile works. That library is really, really old. It's an android library released before Android 9 was released. Android 10 is out now. I hesitate to think how it will work in practice.

You will want a modern library I think.
