Problem with Gradle versions and Android Emulator

I'm new to using React and have been following along in a tutorial for a project to learn. Occasionally, I encounter an error that stops my progress, then I search the error, and I generally find some solution. But in this case, I am having a hell of a time. Part of the issue is that I am so new to developing software that I sometimes am unsure of how to implement someone's solution. And, in particular, this issue seems like it is not simply contained to a single project, which means that new projects I create with React are now also experiencing similar issues.
Here's the issue. When I use npm run android, I get the following output:
info Running jetifier to migrate libraries to AndroidX. You can disable it using "--no-jetifier" flag.
Jetifier found 1940 file(s) to forward-jetify. Using 4 workers...

Someone had said that Gradle version 7 is incompatible with the current version of React and that it needs to be downgrade to version 7. I tried changing the version in the wrapper file for the Android folder, as well as taking someone's suggestion to change it in the Android Studio "Project Structure." In either case, the error either persisted or merely gave me a different error. What is going on here?
I've been trying to get my apps to run and compile but am in over my head.

Generating APK fails with ./gradlew

However when I run the command ./gradlew assembleRelease I get this error:

I searched around for the solution and found this StackOverflow question, whose answer provides the pom file.
But I don't know where to put it.
How do I resolve this error?

Flutter path_provider Error - Could not resolve project :path_provider_linux

I have implemented various methods but errors appear every time I run android.
If you delete the path_provier_macos folder, a linux error appears.
You are currently using path_provier: ^1.6.11. Lowering the path_provier version is the same.
Please tell me the solution.

Go to your Flutter sdk folder.

Remove all path_provider folders.

Run your app.
I hope this fix your problem!

External SDKs
I do have an external SDK in build.gradle. I don't know if that is the reason for this error.

I moved two declarations to the bottom of app/build.gradle. but the error remains same

There were actually two mistakes:
There is actually a line present in android/app/build.gradle which is apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native/react.gradle". You don't need to add this line instead you need to add apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native-code-push/android/codepush.gradle" below it. Adding this at end can solve problem for some user but not for all. Add it at appropriate place.
If there is an gradle error it is due to multidex. Enable multidex for all support. Add multiDexEnable true in android > defaultConfig. See this for refrence https://developer.android.com/studio/build/multidex#mdex-gradle

I faced the same issue too.
"react-native-code-push": "^6.2.1",
"react-native": "0.61.4",
Finally, I deleted that line you said and it built successfully.
I placed to the bottom of build.gradle
apply from: file("../../node_modules/#react-native-community/cli-platform-android/native_modules.gradle"); applyNativeModulesAppBuildGradle(project)
//apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native/react.gradle"
apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native-code-push/android/codepush.gradle"

Actually the error is because of unclear documentation . We are supposed to only add
apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native-code-push/android/codepush.gradle"
beneath the
apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native/react.gradle".
But if we copy the code sample it adds the react.gradle plugin again causing the duplicate gradle task error

Had this same issue, and will outline here for anyone that has the same as me. Turns out I didn't follow the directions exactly.
It also gave me this error:
cannot find symbol
new CodePush(getResources().getString(R.string.CodePushDeploymentKey), getApplicationContext(), BuildConfig.DEBUG)
I was using multi-deployment-testing-android.md to use the staging and production keys. I was confused by the part which said to add your keys to the android/app/build.gradle file under buildTypes. Upon opening this file, only release was already there, so I only added the releaseStaging section. Turns out you have to also add debug as well even if it weren't already there. Solved it for me.

apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native/react.gradle" defined before
so simply its a duplication , try to comment or remove it and you ready to go

Build failed with fresh installed react-native app

Im trying to build an app but run into some problems so tried with a fresh projects that still fails to build. This is my steps:
1) Installing the app with
react-native init Myapp
after that Im running the emulator in android studio and launching the app with:
react-native run-android
and are getting the errormessage below. I have tried to reinstall the react-native cli
npm install -g react-native-cli
reset the cache in gradle with
cd android
gradlew cleanBuildCache
It used to work but since I have had some problems to build the apk I messed around a bit with the gradle. I might have updated something that causes the error. Any help is very welcomed!
here is the errormessage

Is Android SDK installed and are all the required variables set?
Try running in the command line:
adb
If the command is not recognized, then something is wrong with your Android SDK installation.
Follow the link provided in the error for detailed instructions on installing Android SDK.

I think, Developer options closed in your devices first open developer options,
then try this command
react-native init Test
npm i
react-native run-android or ios.

Turn off wifi
Build the app in offline mode
Turn on wifi
Your app should be builded
The reason behind this has been described here: https://github.com/react-native-camera/react-native-camera/issues/2490

Go to android folder and edit build.gradle
set buildToolsVersion to buildToolsVersion = "23.0.1" mine was 30.0.2 when i changed it to "23.0.1" it started working
In the android folder run
gradlew.bat installDebug
and make sure the Build is successful
That should do it go back to your project folder and run
npm run android
