Answer 1

I solved this

npm uninstall react-native-device-info

and then

npm install --save react-native-device-info

latest version should be 2.1.2

Answer 2

Add this to your app/build.gradle dependencies:

configurations.all {
        resolutionStrategy {
            force 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:16.1.0'
            force 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:16.1.0'
            force 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.9'
            force 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:18.0.0'
    }
}

This basically forces your third party libraries(like deviceinfo) that depend on gcm, to use the 16.1.0 version.
