react-native-navigation-bar-color is unmaintained (last release Dec 2022) and its android/build.gradle still calls jcenter(), which Gradle 9 removed. Any consumer on React Native 0.82+ / Expo SDK 55+ therefore fails the Android build during Gradle configuration. cds-mobile only used the single changeNavigationBarColor() call. Swap it for the maintained react-native-system-navigation-bar across cds-mobile, the expo example app, and the template, and drop the local yarn patch (which only promisified the old package and did not fix the jcenter issue). Closes coinbase#789 Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Summary
Fixes #789.
@coinbase/cds-mobiledepends onreact-native-navigation-bar-color(peer + dev, plus the expo example app and template). That library is unmaintained — last commit and last npm release were December 2022 — and itsandroid/build.gradlestill callsjcenter(), which Gradle 9 removed. As a result, any consumer on React Native 0.82+ / Expo SDK 55+ fails the Android build during Gradle configuration withCould not find method jcenter().cds-mobile only used a single call (
changeNavigationBarColor(hex, light, animated)), so this swaps it for the maintainedreact-native-system-navigation-bar(last released Dec 2025, supports current RN).Changes
packages/mobile/src/system/AndroidNavigationBar.tsx: useSystemNavigationBar.setNavigationColor(hex, style, 'navigation').packages/mobile/package.json: swap the peer + dev dependency toreact-native-system-navigation-bar.apps/expo-app/package.json,templates/expo-app/package.json: swap the dependency.package.json+.yarn/patches/…: remove the old yarn patch (it only promisified the return value and did not address thejcenter()break).yarn.lock: regenerated.Notes
This complements the RN 0.83 peer-range work in #763 — removing this dead dependency is part of building cds-mobile cleanly on modern React Native.
