React Native AndroidManifest android:exported problem

When I upgrade targetSdkVersion to 12, I got AndroidManifest.xml Error
"Apps targeting Android 12 and higher are required to specify an explicit value for android:exported when the corresponding component has an intent filter defined."
So I added android:exported. but same error.
Please see my AndroidManifest file and tell me where is error...

You uploaded an APK or Android App Bundle which has an activity, activity alias, service or broadcast receiver with intent filter

I am trying to upload the appbundle to play console but getting this issue.
You uploaded an APK or Android App Bundle which has an activity, activity alias, service or broadcast receiver with intent filter, but without the 'android:exported' property set. This file can't be installed on Android 12 or higher. See: developer.android.com/about/versions/12/behavior-changes-12#exported
I have tried adding
android:exported="false"
but it still throws me same error. Below is my Androidmanifest.xml

1 confusion I have is 1. Is it nessecery to maintain the package name same as applicationId? As I have different package name and different applicationId.
For some reasons I am unable to refactoring the package name. Is something wrong with the manifest file or it is because of the different package name and applicationId?
What is possible solution? Thanks in advance

App icon does not display in applications (on home screen)

My app used to work just fine, its icon displayed when installed in applications and it was uploaded to the Play Store. Now when I install it, it is like invisible, and in the Play Store it just says Uninstall, not open. What would be the reason for this?
Thanks.

This problem occurs when you include the <data> element in the same intent-filter as your action.MAIN, which does not expect any data.
You could try splitting the intent-filter like this:
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="redacted.MainActivity" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="http"/>
<data android:scheme="https"/>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

Android app opens in old app when shareing file

I have kind of a wierd problem. I have setup my app to be the default launcher for opening files, in the manifest, like the code sample below.
For example if I chose to open a file from the default android download app it looks like this:
Is there a way to let it open in a new app/window such that the download app and my app looks like being two different apps?

Add the documentLaunchMode attribute to your Manifest. The default value is none, you probably want to use intoExisting, or always.
You can also take a look at allowTaskReparenting, and taskAffinity for fined control over the tasks and the stack.
