Push notifications not enable on some devices about react-native-airship HOT 4 CLOSED

Are you enabling user notifications ? What OS versions? Did you disable notifications at the app level? Settings -> App Info -> App -> Notifications ?

from react-native-airship.

Yes, and yes, I did all the steps for notifications, the OS versions is pointed in the issue, for the Galaxy S6 is Android 7.0 and for the galaxy On 5 is Android 6.0.1

and like I said, my previous native android app is working fine on the Galaxy S6

from react-native-airship.

This is running the same SDK that runs on a native app.

Here is the call that determines that opt in status:

Things that could cause it to be opted out:

• User notifications disabled on PushManager
• Push disabled on PushManager
• GCM/FCM not configured properly
• Notifications are disabled at the app level
• Google Play Services is out of date

Assuming its the same code running on both phones, you can probably rule out push and user notifications being disabled on the SDK. My guess its most likely Google Play Services being out of date. Your react version is probably pulling in a newer version of the Play Services than your native app.

You should see something in the logs during start up. You can also add

import com.urbanairship.google.PlayServicesUtils;
...

public class MainActivity extends ReactActivity {
    ...

    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        super.onResume();

        // Handle any Google Play services errors
        if (PlayServicesUtils.isGooglePlayStoreAvailable(this)) {
            PlayServicesUtils.handleAnyPlayServicesError(this);
        }
}

To the MainActivity.java to have it prompt the user to install latest version.

Thanks for your help, I forgot about Play services, and I just updated the Google play services and works, I'm going to put this check in the native code.
