hi everyone, after long days of trying to fix this problem i finally manage to do it. i dont know what exactly helped (because i am not Java developer) but here is some modifications i have made . maybe it will help you save your time.
so.... i went to this file =>
node_modules\react-native-simple-openvpn\vpnLib\src\main\java\de\blinkt\openvpn\core\OpenVPNService.java
and went to this method =>
private void showNotification

1. i added this => @RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.Q) before private void showNotification ( i am not sure it is correct step)

2. i changed this=> Notification notification = nbuilder.getNotification();
   into this=> Notification notification = nbuilder.build();

3. i changed this => startForeground(notificationId, notification);
   into this => if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
   startForeground(notificationId, notification, ServiceInfo.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_DATA_SYNC);
   return;
   } else {
   startForeground(notificationId, notification); // for old android versions
   }

then i went to this file =>node_modules\react-native-simple-openvpn\android\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml

1. i added this into service=> android:foregroundServiceType="dataSync"

2. and also added user permission of type
   FOREGROUND_SERVICE_DATA_SYNC

i think this is all i did to make it work. maybe i have forgotten something, or maybe i did some unnessary changes. as i mentiond earlier i am not java developer ))) good luck everyone.

After testing, you only need to modify the AndroidManifest.xml.

v2.1.3 has already fixed the issue.
