Force close using huawei devices

[flixyudh]

Hi, i just tried to implement broadcasting using this library in my Huawei Phone, but it suddenly force close after navigated to <IVSBroadcastCameraView/>

Flow:
At Home screen i have a button called Broadcast and it handling permission before navigate to broadcast screen

Home.js Broadcast button function:

const isLocationGranted = await check(PERMISSIONS.ANDROID.RECORD_AUDIO)
if(isLocationGranted===RESULTS.GRANTED) navigation.navigate('Broadcast')
else {
  const isRequestLocationGranted = await request(PermissionSpecificPlatform)
  if(isRequestLocationGranted === RESULTS.GRANTED) navigation.navigate('Broadcast')
  else RequestPermission()
}

Broadcast.js:

<IVSBroadcastCameraView
  rtmpsUrl={rtmpURL}
  streamKey={streamKey}
  {...(__DEV__ && {
    logLevel: 'debug',
    sessionLogLevel: 'debug',
  })}
/>

is there any required props to make it work?

Here's a full log

Hi @AndrewShapovalov , I just tried run example project and it force closing too

@zxccvvv thanks! Could you also provide a little bit more information about your phone (e.g. phone model, OS version etc)?

Hi @AndrewShapovalov

I literally just got a crash alert about a Huawei device too 😄

NullPointerException
Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.graphics.drawable.Drawable android.graphics.drawable.Drawable$ConstantState.newDrawable(android.content.res.Resources)' on a null object reference

Hi @AndrewShapovalov , I just tried run example project and it force closing too

@zxccvvv thanks! Could you also provide a little bit more information about your phone (e.g. phone model, OS version etc)?

@AndrewShapovalov my Huawei devices model is Nova 7 SE

@chrisedington your issue is not related to this package, i bet your RN version is lower than 0.67.0, because those error has been fixed at 0.67.0 (Read Here)

[chrisedington]

Thanks for the info @zxccvvv - appreciated - looks like you're right. I retract my comment above :)

[AndrewShapovalov]

Hi @zxccvvv!

I've just published the fix on the next branch. Could you give it a try and say if the problem's gone?

$ yarn add amazon-ivs-react-native-broadcast@next

[flixyudh]

Sure @AndrewShapovalov , i'll take a look and let you know soon

[flixyudh]

Hi @AndrewShapovalov , i just tried your next version, but when i tried using props rtmpsUrl and streamKey it throw error ReadableNativeMap as below

but it works when i pass rtmpsUrl and streamKey as start() ref method

[AndrewShapovalov]

Hi @zxccvvv! Thanks for answering.

I've just updated the next branch with the fix. Could you try again?

[flixyudh]

Hi @AndrewShapovalov , i just tried to implement broadcast in my ios too, but it throw error while npx pod-install

The Swift pod `amazon-ivs-react-native-broadcast` depends upon `React-Core`, which does not define modules. To opt into those targets generating module maps (which is necessary to import them from Swift when building as static libraries), you may set `use_modular_headers!` globally in your Podfile, or specify `:modular_headers => true` for particular dependencies.

could you help me how to fix the problem when installing cocoapods?

my RN version is 0.62.2 btw

[AndrewShapovalov]

Hi @zxccvvv!

To solve the problem you can add use_modular_headers! in your Podfile, however I would recommend you instead to upgrade RN to the 0.64.0 version or higher.

[AndrewShapovalov]

Hi @zxccvvv!

Do you have any updates regarding the issue?

[flixyudh]

Hi @AndrewShapovalov sorry for late response

currently i've another task priority to do, so i just skip this issue

ill close it for now and i'll give you an update when i've time to test it
