CodePush update always rolls back after install on first launch

[wanderlust252]

After releasing and installing a CodePush update, the app successfully downloads and installs the package. However, once the app restarts, the new bundle is rolled back automatically, and the app reverts to the previous version.

I would like to know if there is a way to check the exact error or reason why the rollback happens, so I can fix the root cause.

I also encountered this problem on Android with react-native 0.81.1. The new architecture has been enabled. Can anyone offer help?

Before: I use HOC from CodePush
NOW: I handle it in useEffect
Result: Worked well
useEffect(() => {
const initCodePush = async () => {
try {
// Check current package info first
const currentPackage = await CodePush.getUpdateMetadata();

    // Notify app is ready
    await CodePush.notifyAppReady();

    // Check for updates
    const update = await CodePush.checkForUpdate();
    if (update) {
      await CodePush.sync({
        installMode: CodePush.InstallMode.ON_NEXT_RESTART,
        rollbackRetryOptions: {
          delayInHours: 24,
          maxRetryAttempts: 1,
        },
        mandatoryInstallMode: CodePush.InstallMode.ON_NEXT_RESTART,
      });
     
    } 
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('❌ CodePush failed:', error);
  }
};

// Auto check on app resume
const handleAppStateChange = (nextAppState: string) => {
  if (nextAppState === 'active') {
    console.log('🔄 App resumed, checking for CodePush updates...');
    initCodePush();
  }
};

// Initial check after 2s
const timer = setTimeout(initCodePush, 2000);

// Listen for app state changes
const subscription = AppState.addEventListener(
  'change',
  handleAppStateChange,
);

return () => {
  clearTimeout(timer);
  subscription?.remove();
};

}, []);

ONLY installMode: CodePush.InstallMode.ON_NEXT_RESTART work but still occur rollback sometime AND CodePush.InstallMode.immediate always crash and rollback
