RN 0.58 + Android target SDK 27 = Problem with orientation locker

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

its looks like that Android by SDK 27 and up change ability to locking screen which are not fullscreen. It is only issue when target SDK is set to 27, which is default in RN 0.58. But when is compiled with target SDK 26 it works. Error: Issue: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Only fullscreen activities can request orientation

Any hints how to fix it without any complex solution ? Maybe add oneliner into AndroidManifest.xml ?

Same issues in different repositories https://github.com/Instabug/Instabug-Android/issues/68 https://github.com/ParkSangGwon/TedPermission/issues/63

Simple working fix is disabling translucent feature in file android/app/src/main/res/values/styles.xml replace:

<item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">true</item>

<item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">false</item>

Maybe this can be noticed in Readme file.

It is bug just for Android 8.0.
