FAILURE: Build failed with an exception in React Native Android

Question

I'm using react-native-cli: 1.2.0 , react-native: 0.40.0 and working on Ubuntu 16.04.

I am trying to implement react-native-navigation with Android app, but it gives me an error like the following:

After downgrading to react-native 0.25.1 I have the following issues:

Pro tip, since you're a high rep user: readers know you want help, because you're asking a question on a help site. Thus, "please help me" and similar material may be read as begging, and is likely to be trimmed by editors over the long term. Keep it succinct if you can! — halfer

Last version of React Native where com.facebook.react.LifeCycleState exists is 0.34.x, so this module can not be used on react-native>=0.35.0 commit #406a1b3c

Actually I can see v2 branch, read carefully!

Update: same description about supported versions of React Native exists on main project page

@vovkam I have updated my question, I am still getting issues even after downgrading react-native version

@Dineshaws Seems like you only downgrade react-native package, you also need downgrade your app code (most simple way to do that is regenerate native code)

Thanks @vovkam I have upgraded my app code using react-native upgrade command
