Android 11 and above crashing on notification open

[MajkellVZ]

The app crashes while opening the notification and shows the following message
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'java.lang.Object android.os.Bundle.clone()' on a null object reference

currently using version 4.2.3

same here. Anyone already fixed this issue ?

[DanielEliraz]

@StefanLuecke , @MajkellVZ , please see if it's fixed in 4.2.4

[MajkellVZ]

@DanielEliraz the error persists

[StefanLuecke]

@DanielEliraz Seems to work for me ... will test it on multiple devices tomorrow. Thx for your awesome work!

[MajkellVZ]

for me it works when the app is killed but not when it's in background, but so did with the last version

[MajkellVZ]

lowered the targetSkdVersion to 30 and it worked

[DanielEliraz]

@MajkellVZ Need to find a way to solve it also in targetSkdVersion > 30. In my app I added the logic in the MainActivity but it seems hucky. But for now ReactNative's targetSkdVersion is 30 so there is time to think

can you please share your solution without the need to lower the sdk to 30?

@DanielEliraz This problem persists for me in 4.2.4 with Android 12 and target SDK 31. I recommend keeping the issue open until this package works with > 30.

Same for our app running on Android 12 devices with targetSDKVersion set to 31 (considering turning it back to 30 now 😅 )
Versions:

   "react-native-notifications": "^4.2.4",
   "react-native": "0.67.2",

Sample stack trace. From the 100+ reports I can see it only happens at getInitialNotification calls from "cold boots", if the app is already running it seems to open fine:

The only solution I found was to roll back to SDK 30.
