My app closes instead of reloading after installing in app update - android

I am using react-native, and I want to add in app update to my app. At first I tried using sp-react-native-in-app-updates. But my app was closing after the update was done. "the expected behavior is to reload with the new version".
So I decided to go native and use native modules to implement in-app-update.for the native approach I have followed react-native-in-app-update. But, going native did not help me and My app closes when It's done installing the update. after the app closes if I open it again. it's the updated version. but, the expected behavior for the app is to immediately reloads after installing update.
To make sure I am doing everything in the right way. I have created an app from scratch and followed the same steps and I could get the desired result. The new app was reloading after installing the update.

Try and run "expo doctor".
It seems your package versions are misaligned. Also you have "expo:1.0.0" should probably be an error in your package.json.
Try and use a supported version instead.

React native app crash on apk launch after using realm

I have a react native app using realm for saving user json input to device storage, then send the json data to api when they have stable connection (not automatically).
It works perfectly when used in debugging mode, but when I build it to apk and install to android device (the same one used for debugging), it crashes instantly without even showing the splash screen.

I'm stuck with this for two days now.
Found some similar issues and have try this approaches :
Use v10.20.0-beta.5 -> can't even launch in debugging
Removing react-native-reanimated
Disable hermes (never enabled in the first place)
add this to defaultConfig inside android/app/build.gradle :
ndk {
abiFilters 'arm64-v8a', 'x86_64'
}
But nothing fixes the crash.
*I can't use AsyncStorage because of the 1MB cursor limit, and I will need to save maximum of 60MB. And I'm holding react native upgrade to 0.69 for now, because of the project's time limit.
How can I run the apk without crashing?
Thanks a bunch for your help!

React Native app is using less secure cipher algorithm (com.securepreferences.SecurePreferencesOld)

When publishing Android app built in React Native, I got and error from automatic tests in Google Play Developer Console pointing here
How to fix this in React Native? Is this purely RN problem or some of my native modules doing this? I do not have any custom native code which is using Cipher class.

More than one file was found with OS independent path 'junit/runner/logo.gif'

I’m working on a project where I need to establish connection to printer with ESC-POS. Project is in react native and I currently test on Android emulator.
I’ve found package that would do what I need (https://github.com/leesiongchan/react-native-esc-pos) but when I try to build an app it gives over 330 errors like:
Duplicate class org.junit.runners.model.MultipleFailureException found in modules escposjava-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar (escposjava-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar) and junit-4.12.jar (junit:junit:4.12)`
Those errors occur for task :app:mergeDebugJavaResource and the messages are:
A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade
More than one file was found with OS independent path 'junit/runner/logo.gif'
I tried to apply answers from this question: More than one file was found with OS independent path 'META-INF/LICENSE' but nothing has changed.
Any help would be apprecieated.

I kept searching other questions related to android and finally found this:
Duplicate Hamcrest and JUnit classes after updating Gradle and Android Studio to 3.5
So basically all I did was to add to build.gradle (:app)
android {
...
configurations {
compile.exclude group: "junit", module: "junit"
}
...
}
Now project builds and app starts.

React Native - Android app restarts on background

My react-native android app restarts on background even in AdMob ads.
I newly added Google-AdMob ads to my app but when I take it to the background or watch Interstitial ads in the app, it restarts and starts over from the splash screen.
