can you try setting the dependency manually to match all the versions? for example: implementation 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:26.1.0' implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:26.1.0' — the newbie coder, Jul 25 '18 at 07:48
Where should i write implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:26.1.0? — Imran Noor, Jul 25 '18 at 07:51
the build.gradle file. implementation is the same as your compile. compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:26.1.0' compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:26.1.0' — the newbie coder, Jul 25 '18 at 07:54
A.Myapp/android/app/build.gradle or B.Myapp/node_modules/react-native-splash-screen/android/build.gradle ?? — Imran Noor, Jul 25 '18 at 08:07

I find out that where ever in my project ,third-party modules uses other version of com.google.android.gms:play-services. So in every third-party modules i put same version of com.google.android.gms:play-services.My project has 11.8.0 version so i put same to third-party modules com.google.android.gms:play-services if they have.

NO need to do extra work just change the google-services version of modules to the same as my project google-services version.
