Uploading blob with XMLHttpRequest doesn't work in Android - React Native/Expo

Question

I'm using Firestore v9 within Expo/React Native. I use XMLHttpRequest to convert a base64 image into a blob file. Then I send/upload that blob file to Firebase Storage. It works perfectly with iOS but not with Android. In Android it returns {istrusted: false}, like the network request is not sent or something went wrong during converting the base64 image into a blob file.

I tried to use react-native-fetch-blob library as mentioned here but it's not supported by Expo.

This is my code:

const getBlob = async (photo) => {
  return await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
    
    xhr.onload = function () {
      resolve(xhr.response);
    };
    xhr.onerror = function (e) {
      console.log("consoleloge",e);
      reject(new TypeError("Network request failed"));
    };
    xhr.responseType = "blob";
    xhr.open("GET", photo, true);
    xhr.send(null);
  });
}

const upload64BaseImage = async (photo, newDocRef) => {

   try {

    const blob = await getBlob(photo)

    const imageRef = ref(storage, `images/${newDocRef}.jpg`);
    const metadata = {
      contentType: "image/jpeg",
    };
    const snapshot = await uploadBytes(imageRef, blob, metadata);
    const downloadUrl = await getDownloadURL(snapshot.ref);
    return downloadUrl;
  } catch (error) {
    console.log(`error`, error.message);
  }
};
