Unable to connect and reconnect on react native

I was using this lib for a year and everything is going fine. I was start using RN 0.45, and 0.48 , and then 0.53.0. Everything is perfect.

Until I upgrade to react native 0.53.3, and this issue appear. this is the error I got {"type":"TransportError","description":{"line":"76","collumn":"7944","sourceURL":"index.android.bundle"}} sometimes i got “timeout”

I didn’t change any code, I didn’t change any dependency. What I did just:

1. Deleting my node_modules folder
2. In package.json I change RN and react version number.
3. I run ‘NPM install’

I thought it might the React native issue, so I roll back to the previews version I was used 0.53.0. But this problem still exist. I roll back again to 0.48, the issue still there. and so on.

I use socket.io-client 2.0.3 (I have try 2.0.4 but not help)

Setup

Hope someone will help. Thank you

I am having issues in connecting the websocket (socket.io-client, trnasport:[‘websocket’]) on iOS with the webserver. Interestingly, it works when I turn on “Debug JS Remotely” on the device. This might be a problem with the react-native version on iOS. Just curious if someone is facing the same issue.

I resolved this by adding 'transports': ['websocket'], option

  this.socket = openSocket(socketUrl,{
          'reconnection': true,
          'reconnectionDelay': 500,
	  'reconnectionAttempts': Infinity, 
	  'transports': ['websocket'],            
      });

But that option is not required, am I right? So I keep this issue open because it will break when I omitting that option.
