This is my lines in the manifest editor with the new macros (B4A 8.3 and SDK 26):

Code: Copy

'************ Google Play Services Base ************
CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, FirebaseAnalytics.GooglePlayBase)
'************ Google Play Services Base (end) ************
'************ Firebase Base ************
CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, FirebaseAnalytics.Firebase)
'************ Firebase Base (end) ************
'************ Firebase Ads ************
CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, FirebaseAdMob.FirebaseAds)
'************ Firebase Ads (end) ************
'************ Firebase Analytics ************
CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, FirebaseAnalytics.FirebaseAnalytics)
'************ Firebase Analytics (end) ************
'************ Firebase Auth ************
CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, FirebaseAuth.FirebaseAuth)
'************ Firebase Auth (end) ************

It works to me.

Google has changed an API and the library required an update to work properly: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/updates-to-internal-libraries.59340/#post-591400

Firebase Notifications & Firebase Auth Issues

Use the newest libraries.
Use only the new One Liners in the manifest.
You manifest seems not updated correctly.

Make sure you have updated the two internal libraries.
Remove everything related to google and Firebase from manifest. Leave the standard items and the Theme you defined...
Add the Snippets (onliner)
Try to compile.

Looks like you have more than expected in the manifest

I removed the statements regarding analitics and ads , and also auth ...but this did not solve the problem ...there is something else
I even commented notifications

hookshy · Jul 16, 2018

I am updateing firebase from skd manager....

Erel · Jul 16, 2018

The error you posted in post #4 will be solved if you use the latest version of the libraries. If you have any other issue then start a new thread.

hookshy · Jul 18, 2018

Thank you for takeing patience with me ! I have modified the path to android SDK and solved the problem, updates to libraries did solve the problem as Erel said.
I do not see the previous crash so thanks good ...it works !

I needed to ask for my problem to be solved otherwise I would have been stocked forever
Thank you DonManfred, Erel for your support
