Security exception: Permission Denial about react-native-bootsplash

[rizal-azalli]

I have a same problem but solved the problem with:

      <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize">
        <intent-filter>
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        </intent-filter>
      </activity>

      <activity
        android:name="com.zoontek.rnbootsplash.RNBootSplashActivity"
        android:exported="true"
        android:theme="@style/BootTheme">
        <intent-filter>
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
          <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
      </activity>

In .MainActivity please insert back

    <intent-filter>
      <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
    </intent-filter>

• Reduce the size of the splashScreen image if size is greater than 1 MB.
• Add android:exported="true" in activity:
  <activity
  android:name=".MainActivity"
  android:exported="true"

Use this to reduce size: http://nsimage.brosteins.com/Home/UploadImage

I solved adding android:exported="true"

@mashad6 Since Android 12, activities from LAUNCHER category must have exported: true
Documentation: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/12/behavior-changes-12#exported

[sggonzalezg]

If I put android:exported="true" in <activity android:name=".MainActivity" ...>
Get this error

[zoontek]

Are you installing the module twice? With RN 0.60 and autolinking, you don't need to return it in the getPackages method.

[zoontek]

Could you try with the updated react-native cli instead? It's bundled with react-native now.

I have same error

[zoontek]

I added android:exported="true" to the example and the README. Thanks @giacomocerquone !

[mashad6]

@zoontek Hey, setting an is causing vulnerability when running pen-test.
It says that exported should be false. setting it false causing this same issue then

[mashad6]

@zoontek Thanks, it helped
