@VMBindraban thanks for reporting this, just to make sure your simulator works could you try to start you sim with android studio and check if it starts?

[VMBindraban]

The simulator starts and the app gets installed but the app itself doesn't start. I have to manually open it.

[pauliusguzas]

@VMBindraban I have experienced this in few years a couple of times, usually the culprit is the simulator, I would suggest maybe doing wipe data and cold boot on simulator with android studio or create new sim and trying with that

[VMBindraban]

I deleted the sim and got the same error.

Error type 3
Error: Activity class {com.test.app/com.test.app.MainActivity} does not exist.

appConfigs/app/renative.json:

{
    "$schema": "../../../../.rnv/schema/rnv.app.json",
    "extendsTemplate": "@rnv/template-starter/appConfigs/base/renative.json",
    "id": "app",
    "common": {
        "id": "com.test.app",
        "title": "test",
        "buildSchemes": {},
        "runtime": {
            "welcomeMessage": "Hello ReNative!"
        }
    },
    "platforms": {}
}

@mihaiblaga89 could you check this when you can

[pauliusguzas]

@VMBindraban could you try with 1.0.0-rc.4 if this was fixed?

looked over your platformBuilds archive and it’s the same as mine. Giving the fact that this works for me and @pauliusguzas I’d say we complete this task and open a new one for later for this since it might be an issue with the simulator itself

[GabrieleKaceviciute]

1.0.0-rc.12 I've tested on:

• Television (1080p) API 31 (Android 12.0) -> it works.
• Television (4K) API 33 (android 13.0 "Tiramisu") -> it fails. TV emulators do not support <category android:name="android.intent.category.LEANBACK_LAUNCHER" /> only <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
