It's difficult to know just like that what's the error... Did you follow all the steps ? :
=> keytool -genkey -v -keystore my-release-key.keystore -alias my-key-alias -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000
=> Place the my-release-key.keystore file under the android/app
=> Edit the file ~/.gradle/gradle.propertieswith the informations you create(store and key password). MYAPP_RELEASE_STORE_PASSWORD=*****
MYAPP_RELEASE_KEY_PASSWORD=*****
=> Edit the file android/app/build.gradle to enable release version... like this :
=> ...
android {
...
defaultConfig { ... }
signingConfigs {
release {
storeFile file(MYAPP_RELEASE_STORE_FILE)
storePassword MYAPP_RELEASE_STORE_PASSWORD
keyAlias MYAPP_RELEASE_KEY_ALIAS
keyPassword MYAPP_RELEASE_KEY_PASSWORD
}
}
buildTypes {
release {
...
signingConfig signingConfigs.release
}
}
}
...
=> And finishing , go on main repo and run this : $ cd android && ./gradlew assembleRelease
=> The generated APK can be found under android/app/build/outputs/apk/app-release.apk

So i finally found the answer I had to delete default.png file and rename the reference in js files don't know what caused the error. But deleting the file in res folder seemed to be a workaround, if anyone finds the cause do tell me but for now the problem is resolved
