Hey @dking01, I made a workaround, verifying if the connection exists and if it's connected before create a new one.

                const exists = manager.has('default')

                let conn: Connection

                if (exists) {
                    const defaultConn = manager.get('default')

                    if (defaultConn) {
                        conn = defaultConn

                        if (!conn.isConnected) {
                            await conn.connect()
                        }
                    }
                } else {
                    conn = manager.create({
                        name: 'default',
                        type: 'react-native',
                        database: 'myappdb',
                        location: 'default',
                        logging: ['error', 'query', 'schema'],
                        synchronize: true,
                        entities: [
                            Entity
                        ]
                    })

                    await conn.connect()
