Answer 1

Thanks, I found the solution.

In the end tried to clean install Android Studio including sdk, gradle, etc by deleting android studio related stuff on %APPDATA%, %USERPROFILE%, %LOCALAPPDATA%.

After that i build the apk again from vscode console and it work.

I think the error occurred because of missing stuff in gradle or error during sdk installation.

add the following line to android/build.gradle.try it and update is it fixed!

buildscript {
    ext {
        androidXCore = "1.7.0" // <-- Add this line
        buildToolsVersion = "29.0.3"
        minSdkVersion = 21
        compileSdkVersion = 30
        targetSdkVersion = 29
        ndkVersion = "20.1.5948944"
    }
