Error on ContextCompat.registerReceiver

[matheusbento]

Hey Guys, I'm having the following issue when trying to run yarn Android.

I was using another lib was working, but there was an issue related to slow printing: https://github.com/suraneti/react-native-sunmi-v2-printer

But I installed this one and is having this issue.

Can anyone help?

I encountered this error too. This issue comes from #48. What I did was I just removed that implementation and it worked just fine. To know more about what it does, I suggest to check the mentioned item.

The weird thing is that I'm with the same code you mentioned @Arekku04

Have you tried deleting that line of code?

Hello @alexsegura was wondering what could be the reason for this since you are the one who submitted this PR. Thanks!

I created a patchpackage for this too and it seems to work but its diffidently an issue with older devices that ContextCompat.registerReceiver doesnt work. Though it builds properly with it it does crash the app.I have an SunmiV2.

buildscript { ext { buildToolsVersion = "34.0.0" minSdkVersion = 25 compileSdkVersion = 34 targetSdkVersion = 34 kotlinVersion = "1.9.22" ndkVersion = "23.1.7779620" } }

And im also getting the issues.

I seem to have found the issue, no matter how i edit my build.gradle of my app react-native-sunmi-printer still seems to use androidx.core:core:1.7.0 which doesnt have registerReceiver. the fix was to add that as dependency.

I used androud studio->project structure and added androidx.core:core:1.13.1 ad dependency and it worked.

Find a patchpackage below

Hello,

I think the problem is that the androidx.appcompat is missing, or at a too low version. See this Stackoverflow thread.

Sorry, I'm not an Android specialist, androidx.appcompat probably needs to be imported in this project.
I think it works for me and others because androidx.appcompat is imported by another lib.

Can you try adding implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.6.1' in the build.gradle of this lib in your node_modules, and build again?

I will try to send a pull request.
