CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, FirebaseNotifications.FirebaseNotifications

This line is missing the closing parenthesis.
Not sure if this is the only error.
Also not that B4A 13 needs to use Java 19.
You are using 17.

If you don't find the error then check the generated Objects\AndroidManifest.xml file, and specifically line 198 in that file.

AddApplicationText(<receiver android:name=com.sentio.admin" android: permission="android.permission.BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN"> <meta-data android:name="android.app.device_admin" android:resource="@xml/device_admin" /> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.app.action.DEVICE_ADMIN_ENABLED" /> </intent-filter> </receiver>)

I believe the problem is with this part
Because not well-formed error usually happens on syntax

the correct syntax is

AddApplicationText(
<receiver android:name="com.sentio.admin"
  android:permission="android.permission.BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN">
  <meta-data android:name="android.app.device_admin"
             android:resource="@xml/device_admin" />
  <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.app.action.DEVICE_ADMIN_ENABLED" />
  </intent-filter>
</receiver>
)

try this and let me know if that was the problem
