Android dev server broke

[0xturboblitz]

When bumping between 016fa9e and dd76c71, I broke the dev server. apk release was fixed in 69b29ab but not dev server.

Should be linked to Android Gradle Plugin version.

Bumping com.android.tools.build:gradle:8.1.0 to 8.3.0 yields:

Minimum supported Gradle version is 8.4. Current version is 8.0.1.

Bumping gradle-8.0.1 to gradle-8.4 yields kotlin errors

WORKAROUND

Until then, here is how to launch the app with the release bundle:

cd android
./gradlew assembleRelease
adb install app/build/outputs/apk/release/app-release.apk

Alternatively, you can build it statically like so:

npx react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res
yarn start

Then type a for android.
