RuntimeException Can't convert to color:type=0x1

Hi! I’ve just updated react-native-splash-screen in my project to the latest version and I’m getting a following RuntimeException:

I can see SplashScreen references there and latest merges added support for Status Bar color (which I don’t need so I haven’t change my config files). When I disable SplashScreen the exception is gone. What can I do to make it work?

My config: compileSdkVersion 26 buildToolsVersion "26.0.1" defaultConfig { applicationId "xxxxxxx" minSdkVersion 16 targetSdkVersion 26 versionCode 1 versionName "1.0" ndk { abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86" } renderscriptTargetApi 23 renderscriptSupportModeEnabled true }

In andorid, I created android/app/src/main/res/values/colors.xml, and setting content <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <resources> <color name="primary_dark">#660B0B0B</color> </resources> It’s worked

@jcharlet I found that this problem only appears in some Android (7.0 or above) system. This problem has been closed, indicating that the author has obtained the problem and is trying to fix it. If you can not wait, you can fork or PR. Cheers!
