discoverReaders stuck on unresolved promise

[Polodiax]

Describe the bug Hello! I'm building a multi tenant POS system using stripe-terminal-react-native and I've noticed that sometimes for reasons I'm not quite sure, the SDK will "freeze" when discovering readers.

Code console.log('discoverReadersAsync'); try { console.log('discoverReadersAsync', 100); const successCallback = success || resolve; const failureCallback = failure || reject; const onFail = () => { failureCallback(); reject(); }; const onSuccess = (s: any) => { successCallback(s); resolve(s); }; console.log('discoverReadersAsync', 200); if (retries > 3) { onFail(); return; } const {error} = await discoverReaders({ discoveryMethod: 'internet', }); console.log('discoverReadersAsync', 300); if (error) { console.log('discoverReadersAsync', 400); console.log('discoverReaders error', error); // @ts-ignore if (error.code === 'AlreadyDiscovering') { const cancelled = await cancelDiscovering(); if (!cancelled.error) { console.log('discoverReadersAsync', 410); return discoverReadersAsync( retries + 1, successCallback, failureCallback, ); } } // @ts-ignore if (error.code === 'AlreadyConnectedToReader') { await disconnectReader(); setState({ connectedReader: undefined, }); return discoverReadersAsync( retries + 1, successCallback, failureCallback, ); } onFail(); } else { console.log('discoverReadersAsync', 500); console.log('discoverReaders success'); onSuccess(''); } } catch (error) { console.log('discoverReadersAsync', 600); console.error('discoverReadersAsync error', error); }

Expected behavior I would like to be able to rediscover readers when I change the current location, and when I have the code above placed in a child component, then within the parent component I use a key based on the current location id to fully rerender the child component which hosts the discover logic, I've noticed that for the first and second time it works as expected but for subsequent rerenders it stops working. I've also noticed that when I do a metro refresh by shaking the device the same thing tends to happen a lot.

As you can see it is stuck on "discoverReadersAsync 200" and I don't get any errors from the discoverReaders method so I suspect it's a frozen promise. I also tried an implementation without my retry logic to ensure it was not blocking it, which it wasn't.

Stripe Terminal React Native SDK version

I'm on version 0.0.1-beta.17 with react native 0.73.1.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: iPad Pro
• OS: iOS 16

Did you ever resolve this? I'm having the same issue.

[Polodiax]

Nope, I'm still having this isse. Going to test if it's the same on Android as well, but right now my focus has been primarily on iOS where the issue is quite consistent.

Hello There,

Any workaround on this?. It's happening on Android, iOS works fine

[Polodiax]

Haven't found a solution to this yet, unfortunately. I think the culprit is likely on the native SDK side, and the only way to reset the SDK is by completely terminating the app and then re-opening it.

Hello,

i noticed that the issue begun since the last reader firmware upgrade, not sure if it's related to that.
