Crash with enabled Hermes engine on React Native Android

Support Hybrid
#1

The app starts crashing for release build on start if I enable Hermes engine for Android.

    com.facebook.jni.CppException: Could not get BatchedBridge, make sure your bundle is packaged correctly
        at com.facebook.react.bridge.queue.NativeRunnable.run(Native Method)
        at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:873)
        at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99)
        at com.facebook.react.bridge.queue.MessageQueueThreadHandler.dispatchMessage(Unknown Source:0)
        at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:201)
        at com.facebook.react.bridge.queue.MessageQueueThreadImpl$4.run(Unknown Source:37)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:764)

And the app is running fine if I remove the calls library from dependencies
"@cometchat-pro/react-native-calls": "1.0.7",

Any ideas what is the problem here?

I would like to use react-native-reanimated v2 and Hermes engine on Android is required. Can anybody help me with this issue?

How is this Pro - Support thing working? No replies in one week. Should I wait longer or no one care and it’s already a dead thread?

At present, CometChat doesn't have support for the Hermes engine However, I have created a feature request

I tried to run the project on iOS with Hermes and it’s working fine. So I assume it’s not a compatibility issue with Hermes itself.

We have reached out to you regarding this issue over email.
I would appreciate it if we could continue our conversation there and therefore, I am closing out this ticket.
