java.io.IOException: MISSING_INSTANCEID_SERVICE

[sssahas]

Hi, This repo is very useful, particularly for non-java guys like me. Thanks for your effort. I pulled down code, generated the google-services.json for my app and replaced here then ran react-native run-android. Then getting below error from the console, I must be doing something silly.. appreciate any suggestions to fix the same.

Thanks!

• Can you try using origin google-services.json(not replace to yours) to see if the error happens?
• What device do you test?

[sssahas]

Hi, Thanks. I tried with default demo apps google-services.json file and still getting the same error. Devices are

1. emulator "5.2" Marshmallow (6.0.0) XXHDPI Phone - 6.0"
2. also on a real device Samsung Galaxy S4.

@sahas- install Google Play Services on device.

It is amusing, after almost 3 years I again got this exception, but now in Firebase Cloud Messaging. Yes, an emulator didn't contain Google Play Services.

@CoolMind hey buddy, did you work it out, I came across the same issue with FCM on Galaxy S6 SM-G9200 android 5.1.1

@glWesley, sorry, I've gotten the exception on an emulator. It didn't contain Google Play Services, and I changed the emulator. Does your device have GPS (not outdated, probably logged in Google account)? Does the bug appear only on it or many other devices? If on other, maybe google-services.json has some error.

我是在设备上运行的，也是报这个错误，改怎么解决啊

[myz-make]

I am running on the device, also reported this error, how to fix it

I am also getting the same error on Amazon Firestick. Firebase should rectify the issue!
