react-native unable to build

[JFE84]

I tried running the app on a physical device like I have been doing but I got this error and no idea how to solve it.

Environment

Environment:
OS: Linux 4.13
Node: 8.9.4
Yarn: Not Found
npm: 5.6.0
Watchman: 4.9.0
Xcode: N/A
Android Studio: Not Found

Packages: (wanted => installed)
react: 16.2.0 => 16.2.0
react-native: 0.53.0 => 0.53.0

Expected Behavior

build in physical device (android phone) like I have been doing. This isn't a new project and it was working fine

Actual Behavior

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Thanks for posting this! It looks like your issue may refer to an older version of React Native. Can you reproduce the issue on the latest stable release?

Thank you for your contributions.

unable to build with latest version due to a different bug, I had to downgrade to 0.53.
Eventually fixed this after unlinking, uninstalling and reinstalling things. Sorry can't be specific because don't know exactly how I did it.

This is how it looks now

buildscript {
   repositories {
        maven  { url "http://jcenter.bintray.com/"}
        maven { url "https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/" }
    }

        // Adobe Creative SDK
        // classpath 'me.tatarka:gradle-    retrolambda:3.3.0-beta4'

        // Firebase push notification service
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.0'

        // Firebase crash report
        classpath 'com.google.firebase:firebase-plugins:1.1.5'
    }
   subprojects {
        afterEvaluate {project ->
            if (project.hasProperty("android")) {
                android {

                    buildToolsVersion '26.0.2'
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenLocal()
        maven    { url "http://jcenter.bintray.com/"}
