You've already linked this above, but don't seem to have indicated that you've tried the solution(s).

This is an issue with react-native-fbsdk, until they fix it you'll need to do the following:

android/build.gradle:

project(':react-native-fbsdk') {
  configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy {
       force 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.22.1'
     }
  }
}

android/app/build.gradle:

compileSdkVersion 24
buildToolsVersion "24.0.2"

The above works for our project, please give it a try. You'll of course need the v24 SDK, Build Tools and Support Repository.
