i have an identical issue, but even if i make a clean react-native project, and connect my android. Hence i make a conclusion that it isn't related to this library, but rather android setup, but idk why it doesnt work, i think i followed everything on this page... upd: idk how, but restarted my pc, still didnt work, then deleted test project, made a new one, and suddenly it worked...

also maybe this will help. similar issue, some solutions

coming back to the project setup given in readme.md, i have the same error still(maybe i screwed something up but idk)

here's the build error

@Melekhin help pls 😄

edit: tried to just build solely unity project, and run on android - all good. i will try to just run the example that is presented in the repo. edit2: in [root_proj_dir]/android/build.gradle , setting gradle version to 4.2.2, and changing minsdk version the same as in in [root_proj_dir]/unity/builds/android/unityLibrary/build.gradle solved the problem for me.
