node_modules/@ovalmoney/react-native-fitness/android/src/main/java/com/ovalmoney/fitness/manager/Manager.java:145: error: cannot find symbol .subscribe(DataType.TYPE_ACTIVITY_SAMPLES) ^ symbol: variable TYPE_ACTIVITY_SAMPLES location: class DataType

It was working fine, suddenly stopped working today after npm install for other library

react-native 0.62.0 @ovalmoney/react-native-fitness: 0.4.0

Hi @laxminarayanmn , have you change the version of :play-services-fitness ?

[laxminarayanmn]

yes, Im using googlePlayServicesVersion = "+" // default: " in projects gradle

'com.google.android.gms:play-services-fitness:19.0.0' in app gradle

[Francesco-Voto]

It seems it does not exist anymore. I will fix it

[Francesco-Voto]

Can you use 17.0.0 for the moment?

[laxminarayanmn]

sure, i'll use the 17.0.0

@laxminarayanmn does it works if you use 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-fitness:17.0.0' in app gradle?

I comment these code: Fitness.getRecordingClient(context, account) .subscribe(DataType.TYPE_ACTIVITY_SAMPLES) .addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener() { @Override public void onSuccess(Void aVoid) { promise.resolve(true); } }) .addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() { @Override public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception e) { promise.resolve(false); } });

@auliakbarh it worked as expected when i removed googlePlayServicesVersion = "+"from projects gradle

I could use some help from anyone on this thread... my project did not have neither a dependency implementation line nor a googlePlayServicesVersion line in its build.gradle... I've tried adding them and specifying version 17.0.0, but it does not solve the compilation issue...

What has happened in just the last week or so?

Ok, I see the removal of the field in the release notes:

https://developers.google.com/android/guides/releases#august_10_2020

Ok, I see how the build.gradle for this library is written now... for anyone else visiting this thread, you can specify an older version of Google Play Services in your top-level build.gradle file, for example:

buildscript {
    ext {
        ...
        googlePlayServicesVersion = '17.0.0'
    }
}

When I tried bumping down just to 18.0.0 I got an error that iid services could not be found with that version...
