Method2

  1. Manual Patch Required While you've updated the libraries, their latest npm releases might not yet include the required namespace migration. For both libraries (@react-native-async-storage/async-storage and react-native-document-picker):

Step 1: Remove the package="..." attribute from their AndroidManifest.xml files:

node_modules/@react-native-async-storage/async-storage/android/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml

node_modules/react-native-document-picker/android/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Step 2: Add the namespace to their build.gradle files:

android {
    namespace 'com.reactnativecommunity.asyncstorage' // For async-storage
    // OR
    namespace 'com.reactnativedocumentpicker' // For document-picker
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  1. Automate with Patch-Package To avoid manual fixes after every npm install: 
npx patch-package @react-native-async-storage/async-storage
npx patch-package react-native-document-picker
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Ensure your package.json includes:

"scripts": {
  "postinstall": "patch-package"
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  1. Verify Library Versions Confirm you’re using minimum compatible versions: 
@react-native-async-storage/async-storage@^1.19.0

react-native-document-picker@^9.1.0
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

If issues persist, check for GitHub forks or community patches (e.g., some libraries have open PRs addressing this).

  1. Clean Build Artifacts 
cd android
./gradlew clean
cd ..
npx react-native run-android
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Why This Happens: Some libraries haven’t fully migrated to Gradle’s namespace syntax despite version updates. Manual intervention is often required until maintainers release official fixes
