Hi,
I tried your commands here (without the -l --external) and it deployed to the device without issue.
Check your gradle version in android sdk (File-> Project Structure)
I am currently running:
Android Gradle Plugin Version: 4.2.1
Gradle Version: 7.0

This was the issue. I hav`e downloaded Gradle separately and added it into env variables. now working
fine.

Thank you
