I am also using the "react-native-firebase". Maybe this is related to it (messaging?). I am investigating this now.

@afilp any luck?

[ali-io]

ok the result of three hours of searching and debugging it appears to be a firebase messaging issue. update it to the latest version and you should be good.

check: invertase/react-native-firebase#3556

@ali-io
Indeed! I disabled firebase messaging and now it does not crash.
Sorry to have bothered you, I thought it was code-push.

Thanks!

Hi @afilp and @ali-io ,
Thanks for reporting!

I see that you already found the reason for the issue and it isn't related to CodePush.
So, I'm going to close this issue for now. Please feel free to reopen it if you have any questions.
