Webdriverio Cucumberjs tests for a React Native app fails on AWS Device Farm - Socket hang up - react-native

Question

I'm writing End-to-ends tests for a React Native app using WebdriverIo, Appium and Cucumberjs and deploying the tests on the AWS Device Farm.
The tests are working fine both on the Android simulator and on an actual real device. Though, on AWS, it throws errors such as (node:3113) DeprecationWarning: Got: "options.rejectUnauthorized" is now deprecated, please use "options.https.rejectUnauthorized" and RequestError: socket hang up. This is shown in more detail below:
[DeviceFarm] echo "Start Appium Node test"
Start Appium Node test
[DeviceFarm] npm run only-one-test-aws
> e2e-cucumber-wdio-appium#1.0.0 only-one-test-aws /tmp/scratch0EgKio.scratch/test-packageFvDXet
> npx wdio ./wdio.android.conf.js --spec ./features/recarga/verificacacaoCodigoDeAcessoInvalido.feature

I also tried this question's solution by installing the webdriverio and #wdio/cli dependencies globally, though it did not work to me.
PS: I've already been able to successfully perform tests on the AWS Device Farm using webdriverio and cucumber. Though, these errors started to show up for me recently and I still have no clue on how to solve them.
Can someone please help me with this?
