Summary: This is another attempt at fixing the Android HMR client for HTTPS proxied Metro instances. The previous one unintentionally [caused the following error](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/48970#issuecomment-2617047184): ``` java.lang.AssertionError: Method overloading is unsupported: com.facebook.react.devsupport.HMRClient#setup ``` This PR removes the overloading, and only adds the `scheme` property as a parameter to the existing `.setup` method. Aligning with the exact behavior we have on iOS. The alternative fix, which should NOT be backward breaking (if this is) - is to move this "infer the protocol from the bundle URL" to the JS side of the HMR client. Where we don't just always default to `http`, but instead default to `https IF port === 443, otherwise http`. It's a bit more hacky, but shouldn't cause any other issues. _**Ideally**_, we have the same working behavior on both Android and iOS without workarounds. <details><summary>Alternative workaround</summary> See [this change](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/compare/main...byCedric:react-native:patch-2). <img width="1179" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/47c365bc-6df8-43e6-ad7d-5a667e350cd4" /> </details> See full explanation on https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/48970 > We've noticed that the HMR on Android doesn't seem to be connecting when using a HTTPS-proxied Metro instance, where the proxy is hosted through Cloudflare. This is only an issue on Android - not iOS - and likely caused by the HMR Client not being set up properly on Android. > >- On Android, we run `.setup('android', <bundleEntryPath>, <proxiedMetroHost>, <proxiedMetroPort>, <hmrEnabled>)` in the [**react/devsupport/DevSupportManagerBase.java**](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/53d94c3abe3fcd2168b512652bc0169956bffa39/packages/react-native/ReactAndroid/src/main/java/com/facebook/react/devsupport/DevSupportManagerBase.java#L689-L691) file. >- On iOS, we run `[self.callableJSModules invokeModule:@"HMRClient" method:@"setup" withArgs:@[ RCTPlatformName, path, host, RCTNullIfNil(port), @(isHotLoadingEnabled), scheme ]];` in the [**React/CoreModules /RCTDevSettings.mm**](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/53d94c3abe3fcd2168b512652bc0169956bffa39/packages/react-native/React/CoreModules/RCTDevSettings.mm#L488-L491) file. > >Notice how Android does not pass in the scheme/protocol of the bundle URL, while iOS actually does? Unfortunately, because the default protocol (`http`) mismatches on Android when using HTTPS proxies, we actually try to connect the HMR client over `http` instead of `https` - while still using port 443 - which is rejected by Cloudflare's infrastructure even before we can redirect or mitigate this issue. And the rejection is valid, as we basically try to connect on `http://<host>:443` (the source URL is `https`, so the port is infered as `443`). > >This change adds scheme propagation to Android, exactly like we do on iOS for the HMR Client. ## Changelog: [ANDROID] [FIXED] Pass the bundle URL protocol when setting up HMR client on Android <!-- Help reviewers and the release process by writing your own changelog entry.

React Native
Learn once, write anywhere:
Build mobile apps with React.
Getting Started · Learn the Basics · Showcase · Contribute · Community · Support
React Native brings React's declarative UI framework to iOS and Android. With React Native, you use native UI controls and have full access to the native platform.
- Declarative. React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Declarative views make your code more predictable and easier to debug.
- Component-Based. Build encapsulated components that manage their state, then compose them to make complex UIs.
- Developer Velocity. See local changes in seconds. Changes to JavaScript code can be live reloaded without rebuilding the native app.
- Portability. Reuse code across iOS, Android, and other platforms.
React Native is developed and supported by many companies and individual core contributors. Find out more in our ecosystem overview.

📋 Requirements
React Native apps may target iOS 13.4 and Android 6.0 (API 23) or newer. You may use Windows, macOS, or Linux as your development operating system, though building and running iOS apps is limited to macOS. Tools like Expo can be used to work around this.
🎉 Building your first React Native app
Follow the Getting Started guide. The recommended way to install React Native depends on your project. Here you can find short guides for the most common scenarios:
📖 Documentation
The full documentation for React Native can be found on our website.
The React Native documentation discusses components, APIs, and topics that are specific to React Native. For further documentation on the React API that is shared between React Native and React DOM, refer to the React documentation.
The source for the React Native documentation and website is hosted on a separate repo, @facebook/react-native-website.
🚀 Upgrading
Upgrading to new versions of React Native may give you access to more APIs, views, developer tools, and other goodies. See the Upgrading Guide for instructions.
React Native releases are discussed in this discussion repo.
