Invariant Violation:requireNativeComponent:"VRTText"was not found in the UIManager.

[xristlxcv]

i try to run the "Hello world" app on android .When i type react-naive run-android then the app opens and once i choose between the AR or VR then it crashes.When I choose AR I get this message "Invariant Violation:requireNativeComponent:"VRTText"was not found in the UIManager."

P.S Using the Testbed App i don't have problem

+1 I have the same problem. I tried to use this instruction, but it didn't help.

[mohitvkulkarni]

You need to run ./setup-ide.sh --android or ./setup-ide.sh --ios (setup-ide.sh --all for both android and iOS) at the base directory of the ViroARSampleApp in order to build and run the app as standalone apps on devices/simulators.

Running setup-ide.sh --android doesn't help https://github.com/viromedia/viro/issues/769#issuecomment-639159816

Integrating with Existing Projects (Android)

[ajeets1978]

I have got the same errors, none of the instruction helped to resolve this issue.

At this point the only solution I found is changing your files to this:

settings.gradle

rootProject.name = 'ViroStarterKit'
apply from: file("../node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android/native_modules.gradle"); applyNativeModulesSettingsGradle(settings)
include ':app'
includeBuild('../node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin')
include ':react_viro', ':arcore_client', ':gvr_common', ':viro_renderer'
project(':arcore_client').projectDir = new File('../node_modules/@viro-community/react-viro/android/arcore_client')
project(':gvr_common').projectDir = new File('../node_modules/@viro-community/react-viro/android/gvr_common')
project(':viro_renderer').projectDir = new File('../node_modules/@viro-community/react-viro/android/viro_renderer')
project(':react_viro').projectDir = new File('../node_modules/@viro-community/react-viro/android/react_viro')
