Description

When building the app with [email protected], the build fails on Android with the following errors:

• Cannot resolve symbol 'PickMultipleVisualMedia'

• Cannot resolve symbol 'PickVisualMedia'

• createIntent(Context, PickVisualMediaRequest) not found

• And eventually: java.lang.StackOverflowError

I've added all recommended dependencies and configurations, including the latest androidx.activity libraries. The issue seems to be caused by Android 13+ Photo Picker integration in this version of the library, possibly with recursive references or improper compatibility with React Native 0.71.x.

How to repeat issue and example

• Use react-native 0.71.8 with react-native-image-picker 7.2.3

• Add androidx.activity:activity:1.9.3 and activity-ktx:1.9.3 to android/app/build.gradle

• Set minSdkVersion = 24, targetSdkVersion = 34, compileSdkVersion = 34

• Run npx react-native run-android

• Compilation fails with unresolved symbols and StackOverflowError

Solution

• Review Android 13+ support implementation in ImagePickerModuleImpl.java

• Ensure compatibility with React Native 0.71.x (likely the ReactModuleInfo and PickVisualMedia integrations depend on RN 0.72+)

• Resolve potential circular references or excessive recursion causing javac to crash
