breautek opened a new issue, #1290:
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-docs/issues/1290
A common issue people are having when upgrading to cordova-android@11 with
the new splashscreen system is Google's compatibility library imposes a
requirement on the app to use the splashscreen theme as the default starting
theme. However many users are using custom configs and/or plugins to override
this theme with another which causes the compatibility library to crash with an
error message that isn't very useful.
The full stack trace as an example can be found below:

This should be documented in some fashion in our
[Quirks](https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/11.x/core/features/splashscreen/index.html#android)
section. I don't think we need ot include the entire stack, but key parts like
```
