Android build failed using eas build after upgrade SDK

Git Issue: https://github.com/expo/eas-cli/issues/1137
I upgraded my expo project to expo 44.0.0 from expo 41.0.0. While building the project using the command eas build --profile development --platform android , it fails with the above errors. Building with expo expo build:android -t apk --release-channel dev works fine.

Error: Gradle build failed with unknown error. Please see logs for the "Run gradlew" phase.

I've had this issue in one of my projects, I had to use ./gradlew build --warning-mode=all to check which deprecated features were giving me this issue, I believe I fixed it by upgrading one of the dependencies. You can also try to run cd android && ./gradlew clean to clean any cache ( sometimes this also may fix the issue)

I had this error too and it took me days before I could figure it out. I installed the latest version of java which as of now is jdk 17. Seems the support of this wasn't readily available yet since it was still new. I had to uninstall it and download java version 11 (jdk 11). I equally had issues finding somewhere to download it from without paying or registering. If you need to download this, check out azul
Edit:
Ensure to set it as your environment variable in your PC/mac. Control panel > system settings > system > advanced settings > environment variables > system variables > look for JAVA_HOME(or whatever you named yours) and change the path from your old installation folder to your new java 11 installation folder. You must exit from cmd or whatever terminal or version control you are using and restart it for it to get the new path. To check if the app has the new path, in your terminal, type echo %JAVA_HOME%. It should show you the new path of your java installation. Also check if the java version is set too by entering, java -version

My Flutter app cloned from the GitHub doesn't run and show these errors. I'm new to flutter. I changed Sdk version to 30, 31 but it didn't work

Detailed StackOverflow Answer
This usually happens when you're opening someone else's project after unzipping it and your current Android Studio Version is older to the version the project was compiled in.
The way to solve it is
Go to Help and about to see your android studio version
go to File>Project Structure> and set your Android Gradle Plugin version to your android studio version
Change the Gradle version to the one you usually use.
Build the project and it should run without any errors

app/src/build.gradle
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.example"
minSdkVersion 19
targetSdkVersion 31
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}
gradle-wrapper.properties
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.0.2-all.zip
android/build.gradle
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.1'
}
You can try this.

Following steps fixed the same issue which I was facing on flutter/vscode.
1/..android\app\build.gradle: change 'compileSdkVersion' and 'targetSdkVersion' to 31 (from 30)
2/ above change gave new error ==> ....
build\app\intermediates\packaged_manifests\debug\AndroidManifest.xml:2: AAPT: error: attribute 'package' in tag is not a valid Android package name: 'com.ulusoyapps.sharewhatyouknow.002-navigator2'.
3/ as per https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/manifest-element.html#package, packagge name was incorrect. I changed it to 'com.ulusoyapps.sharewhatyouknow.a002_navigator2' ,
"package" ==> build\app\intermediates\packaged_manifests\debug\AndroidManifest.xml
"applicationId" ==> android\app\build.gradle
4/ above change gave following error...
