Build Android fails - Unable to resolve module `EventEmitter`

Please provide the following:

  1. SDK Version: 37
  2. Platforms(Android/iOS/web/all): Android

Hey guys,

I have an outdated standalone app (SDK 31) and updating to the latest (37). I did the first ones manually 31 until 34 and then did “expo upgrade” all the way to 37. However it is complaining about EventEmitter… any idea what this is or how to fix that?

Thank you
