Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 8.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

Follow below steps and check if same issue still exist

If you did any manual linking like mentioned here then revert back all the changes
Run npx react-native unlink react-native-orientation
Run npm uninstall react-native-orientation
Delete node_modules
Delete build folders (android/build & android/app/build)
Run npm install or yarn to install packages
Check if app builds without react-native-orientation package.If yes, goto next next. If no, add the fix mentioned here React Native Android build failure with different errors without any changes in code for past days due to publish of React Native version 0.71.0-rc.0 then check if app works then, execute next step
run npm install react-native-orientation
Run npx react-native link react-native-orientation
Clean & build

My issue is resolved by keeping one of react-native-orientation or react-native-orientation-lock — Ankit Kumar, Nov 10 '22 at 12:40
oh so you downloaded both. that's why this error: a type with the same simple **name is already** defined by the single-type-import of OrientationPackage. I thought you did both manual & auto linking which could be also the reason. Anyway good — Thanhal P A, Nov 10 '22 at 12:59
