Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Colored'

Question

Today, I face the error mentioned in this post: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.B

Answer 1

The solution is found in this question Facebook Sdk Android Error Building

I've also forked a repo and provided all these changes to make it run with RN 0.42. You can install it by typing yarn add https://github.com/kidnapkin/react-native-fbsdk.git

Answer 2

I solve that problem by only modifying android/app/build.gradle file. You need to modify the compileSdkVersion and buildToolsVersion as follows.

android {
  compileSdkVersion 25
  buildToolsVersion "25.0.1"

Answer 3

This problem happened after libs updating, adding dependencies, version changes etc. All you need is match Sdk versions of your project, and package you just added or has been updated.

1. Go to android/app/build.gradle

   android {
     compileSdkVersion 25
     buildToolsVersion '25.0.3'
   
     defaultConfig {
       minSdkVersion 16
       targetSdkVersion 25
   

   }

2. Go to node_modules/your-package/android/build.gradle

   android {
     compileSdkVersion 25
     buildToolsVersion '25.0.3'
   
     defaultConfig {
      minSdkVersion 16
      targetSdkVersion 25
   

If problem will not be resolved yet, then check other packages from package.json

Thats it. Hope it helps

Answer 4

I think this is the same problem as Facebook Sdk Android Error Building

You have to change from

compile('com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.+') 

to

compile('com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.22.1')

in node_modules\react-native-fbsdk\android\build.gradle

Answer 5

actually there is some dependencies problem i have faced same but i resolved it by applying these version mismatch changes :

compileSdkVersion 24
buildToolsVersion '24.0.3'

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'

make sure these version are same API. Means that if you are using 24 API to build then appcompat-v7 should be 24.0.+ something.

Answer 6

Finally I've found a solution. After reading all answers and related issues (Facebook Sdk Android Error Building) and trying many things (libs updating, dependencies, lots of version changes etc.) I managed to build my app again. Then I reverted all unnecessary changes and there's what was left:

I needed to add 2 things (iterator and line with "force") in my android/build.gradle file (not android/app/build.gradle):

allprojects {
    configurations.all {
       resolutionStrategy {
         eachDependency { DependencyResolveDetails details ->
           if (details.requested.group == 'com.facebook.react' && details.requested.name == 'react-native') {
             details.useVersion "0.37.0" // Your real React Native version here
           }
         }
         force 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.22.1'
       }
    }
}

Thanks for all the tips anyway!
