FULL ERROR

> Configure project :@react-native-community_checkbox
WARNING: Configuration 'compile' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'implementation' and 'api'.
It will be removed soon. For more information see: http://d.android.com/r/tools/update-dependency-configurations.html
WARNING: The specified Android SDK Build Tools version (23.0.1) is ignored, as it is below the minimum supported version (28.0.3) for Android Gradle Plugin 3.5.2.
Android SDK Build Tools 28.0.3 will be used.
To suppress this warning, remove "buildToolsVersion '23.0.1'" from your build.gradle file, as each version of the Android Gradle Plugin now has a default version of the build tools.

@BravenxX
Have you tried reinstalling the jdk?
There seems to be similar issues (like facebook/react-native#16844) around and that seems to be the way people solve this particular error.

have you tried with "npx jetify" command? it worked for me

it worked for me too, but I also edited android/app/build.gradle, my RN version 0.61.5
-implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:+"
change to:
+ implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:0.61.5"
