Unable to run project after installing React-Native-firebase - react-native

Question

I recently install react-native-firebase package with my react native project and follow all the necessary steps from official documentation but after building my project its saying ##you attempted to use a firebase module thats not install on your android project by calling firebase.auth() ##
I tried:
1.delete my build file from from android/app folder and build again
2.update my Google Play Services and Google Repository
But they didn't work
my build.gradle file:
// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
buildscript {
ext {
buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"
minSdkVersion = 16
compileSdkVersion = 27
targetSdkVersion = 26
supportLibVersion = "27.1.1"
}
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.0.1'
// NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
// in the individual module build.gradle files
}
}
allprojects {
repositories {
mavenLocal()
google()
jcenter()
maven {
// All of React Native (JS, Obj-C sources, Android binaries) is installed from npm
url "$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android"
}
}
}
task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
gradleVersion = '4.6'
distributionUrl = distributionUrl.replace("bin", "all")
}
and my app/build.gradle file:
apply plugin: "com.android.application"
import com.android.build.OutputFile
/**
* The react.gradle file registers a task for each build variant (e.g. bundleDebugJsAndAssets

* cycle. By default, bundleDebugJsAndAssets is skipped, as in debug/dev mode we prefer to load the
* bundle directly from the development server. Below you can see all the possible configurations
* and their defaults. If you decide to add a configuration block, make sure to add it before the
* `apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native/react.gradle"` line.

Answer 1

Update: to use in v6: https://rnfirebase.io/auth/usage
In v5 (deprecated):
you are trying to use the Auth module without setting it up. Please refer to this to setup the auth:
https://v5.rnfirebase.io/docs/v5.x.x/auth/getting-started
And similarly, if you want other firebase modules, you will have to include each one of them. Another suggestion is to use the firebase-starter-kit that comes with everything installed.

Answer 2

I had the similar issue, when I run my project it showed this:
I added this code import io.invertase.firebase.auth.RNFirebaseAuthPackage; in start of MainApplication.java and new RNFirebaseAuthPackage() in getPackages() function of same file. But when I added this code implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:x.x.x" in app gradle it did not sync the gradle file and failed saying 'try again' (here x.x.x defines different versions tried by me). but when I tried 17.0.0 version, it worked fine. The reason is that you should search all the versions online and try one by one, this method always worked for me
