The graddle drama has been there since I first installed the react native framework, and all solution to get it fixed has yielded nothing. However, like I said early, I'm able to get the app run on emulators; even on physical device, the debug apk worked perfectly.
Help is appreciated

Answer 1

try this,
Close metro server if is opend
watchman shutdown-server
for delete node-modules and re install and clear-cache
watchman watch-del-all && rm -rf node_modules && npm cache clean --force && yarn install && npm start -- --reset-cache
3.after complete close the metro server, then next run this code
npx react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle
finally npx react-native run-android or yarn android

Answer 2

Did you try to re-bundle the entry file ?
react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res
