java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Expected URL scheme 'http' or 'https' but no colon was found

Hi,

After searching google, Github issue etc…, I didn’t find the answer to resolve this issue. I found the #4322 and this is only because of the cache.

React Native: 59+ buildToolsVersion: 28.03 minSdkVersion: 16 compileSdkVersion: 28 targetSdkVersion: 28 Gradle: 3.3.1

• This error comes wit ADB install signed apk package on a REAL device.
• Debugging and release run in react native works without problem.

Error:

I have the same issue with the client’s Huawei Honor 9 Lite LLD-L31 device, with installed application beta-version (signed app from the Google Play Store, beta test). It works fine for Android 6 and 7.1, MTK chipsets. But not for Huawei Honor 9 Lite LLD-L31 device. Unfortunately, I cannot provide a test source code here. Only next information from the Firebase Crashlytics:

FatalException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException Expected URL scheme ‘http’ or ‘https’ but no colon was found okhttp3.HttpUrl$Builder.parse (HttpUrl.java:1332) okhttp3.HttpUrl.get (HttpUrl.java:917) retrofit2.Retrofit$Builder.baseUrl (Retrofit.java:458)

I checked all URLs in app and they are correct. Hope it will help, at least a bit. I’ll try to downgrade libraries I use and find a version that will work, and then will update this info.

UPDATE: OkHttp has been used from the Retrofit library. After Retrofit downgrade to the 2.4.0 version issue has not been found. So seems error into Retrofit or OkHttp. Will duplication it for Retrofit too [https://github.com/square/retrofit/issues/3077])
