Splash Stays on the screen

[pranjalkhandelwal432]

Splash stays on the screen i.e it doesn't let the component render

Started happening only after the version upgrade of react-native from 63 to 68

Version:

"react-native-splash-screen": "^3.2.0",
"react-native": "^0.68.1",

Specifically happening on Android

Activity

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        SplashScreen.show(this,true)
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
 }

Index.js

componentDidMount(){

    SplashScreen.hide()
 
}

Put [RNSplashScreen show]; at the end right before return YES;

same here, just started happening this morning, and it was working fine before now.

[rogerkerse]

Put [RNSplashScreen show]; at the end right before return YES;

On iOS it helped. For us, it this show line was few lines above, then app never started, when it was absolutely the last line, then it opened.

Put [RNSplashScreen show]; at the end right before return YES;

Yup, that did it for me as well!

Put [RNSplashScreen show]; at the end right before return YES;

@lifwanian I have the exact same issue on android release varient, debug works fine. where to find "return YES;" ? not sure where to add the line "[RNSplashScreen show];"

any update on that?
it happens to me on android release mode, debug mode works fine.
"react-native": "0.67.2"
"react-native-splash-screen": "^3.3.0"

Is index.js the correct place to put the hide method?

Mine is in my App.tsx, perhaps try your app.js/tsx file , I also just used a useEffect
useEffect(() => {
SplashScreen.hide();
},[]);

/////#### I got mine fixed by reverting the changes, so yeah upgrading gradle wasn't a good idea ####//////

same issue:
works fine in debugBuild(only when connected to Debug server host) and stuck on splash in ReleaseBuild

"react-native": "0.66.5",

buildscript {
    ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "31.0.0"
        minSdkVersion = 21
        compileSdkVersion = 31
        targetSdkVersion = 31
        ndkVersion = "21.4.7075529"
        """""edit, I commented this kotlin_version still stcuks on splash screen"""""
        // kotlin_version = '1.6.10'
    }
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        // classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.2.2")
        classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.1.1")
        // classpath("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version")
        classpath('com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.14')
        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

and my gradle
distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.3.3-all.zip

it was working fine before these changes
reasons might be

i upgraded my gradle from 6.9 to 7.3.3 a week ago

and ### did the following changes too: see in picture

Has anyone encountered the same problem as me
This phenomenon is likely to occur on miui Android devices, and only in release versions
Difficulty in debugging and inability to locate issues

[JoseVov]

I added [RNSplashScreen show]; just before the return YES.

I called the SplashScreen.hide(); in the react-native code.

But the app is not even starting, so it is not able to read the SplashScreen.hide();.

It's completely stuck when the splash appears.

Any Solution?.
