That's a valid report, thanks for sharing. We're tracking this and other Android 14 required tasks internally.

Hi! My understanding it's a blocker for Android 14 support with RN integration. Do we need help to get a code change for this issue or there is already someone working on it? If yes, what's the timeline for this fix? Thank you!

[DaAitch]

Same here.

• RN: 0.71.2
• updating compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion to API 34 (Android 14) for testing
• java.lang.SecurityException for debug and release (in debug this error is nested in one of the "causes", but they are same)

buildscript {
    ext {
        // ...
        compileSdkVersion = 34 // Android 14
        targetSdkVersion = 34 // Android 14
        // ...
    }
}

java.lang.SecurityException: XYZ: One of RECEIVER_EXPORTED or RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED should be specified when a receiver isn't being registered exclusively for system broadcasts

@LeonidKokhnovich if you wish to send a PR, please do. We could backport it to 0.71/0.72 if needed

Im running into the same problem, app crashing on startup

        buildToolsVersion = findProperty('android.buildToolsVersion') ?: '34.0.0'
        minSdkVersion = Integer.parseInt(findProperty('android.minSdkVersion') ?: '21')
        compileSdkVersion = Integer.parseInt(findProperty('android.compileSdkVersion') ?: '34')
        targetSdkVersion = Integer.parseInt(findProperty('android.targetSdkVersion') ?: '34')

Closing as for this

Does anybody know when this will be available in a new release? Thanks!

It will make it in 0.73 or you can ask for a backport in this working group:

[dominikwagner]

Thanks!
I asked for a backport. Because this is blocking Android 14 support which is released next week. So I was wondering if there was a temporarily solution for this until there is a backport or a new release.

Could you link the source of this statement?

Sorry, it was just my conclusion after reading this thread, seeing the code changes in the PR and fighting with this problem for several hours while attempting to upgrade to Android 14

[dominikwagner]

Has anyone solved this problem without upgrading RN? We're currently using RN 0.69, and we haven't found a way to make it work with Android 14.

[DaAitch]

@dominikwagner as long as you do not target a new Android version it should not break your running app, at least for while, so you have time to update RN.

[ThushalIntervest]

Does anyone know an alternative solution?

[renanzalheiros]

Any ideia when (and version) this fix will be applied?
