I am implementing react-native-firebase in an Expo managed project and EAS build fails for Android because of errors like this one:

[stderr] /home/expo/workingdir/build/app/node_modules/react-native-firebase/android/src/main/java/io/invertase/firebase/messaging/RNFirebaseMessaging.java:7: error: cannot find symbol
[stderr] import android.support.v4.app.NotificationManagerCompat;
[stderr]                              ^
[stderr]   symbol:   class NotificationManagerCompat
[stderr]   location: package android.support.v4.app

Longer trace of the errors

[stderr] Note: Some input files use or override a deprecated API.
[stderr] Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details.

Error: Gradle build failed with unknown error. See logs for the "Run gradlew" phase for more information.

First of all, am I understanding the errors correctly, are those pre-AndroidX APIs that are required by react-native-firebase that makes the build to fail?
I have checked some of the above files in my local node_modules folder and there is no trace (i.e. in the file mentioned in the snippet's example) of import android.support.v4.app.NotificationManagerCompat;. So, I am confused why that's the case on Expo's side.
I tried to specify a matching compileSdkVersion for Android in expo's plugins list, as suggested here, like so, but that isn't doing anything:

[
    "expo-build-properties",
        {
            "android": {
            "compileSdkVersion": 33,
             "targetSdkVersion": 33,
             "buildToolsVersion": "33.0.0"
        },
        "ios": {
            "useFrameworks": "static",
            "deploymentTarget": "13.0"
        }
    }
],

Does someone have an idea, where I should look at now, or give me a better understanding of the errors so that I can lead myself to the resolution of my problem?

Expo SDK: 47
react-native: 0.70.5
react-native-firebase: 5.6.0
@react-native-firebase/app: 16.7.0
@react-native-firebase/auth: 16.7.0
@react-native-firebase/functions: 16.7.0

I don't know if it is a react-native-firebase problem, an expo one, or a misconfiguration on my side so I posted as a discussion, I'd be happy to create an issue from thie discussion if this is needed.

react-native-firebase: 5.6.0

That's a versioning violation: https://invertase.io/blog/react-native-firebase-versioning - it is the old old old firebase before it was converted to a monorepo. Unbelievably it still wasn't deprecated on npmjs.com, I just did that so it should be even more obvious to others in the future that there is no circumstance where react-native-firebase v5 should still be in use

Remove that one, and things should work for you

Thanks, that's it! It was on my list of things to try, I wasn't sure about that package!
