Pretty the same error. Try few libraries which use FlatList (for example react-native-autocomplete-input), then I try use an example from original Rn docs https://reactnative.dev/docs/flatlist
Get same error with getItem
I use 0.64.0 and get this problem.
Downgrading to 63.2 help me and fix this error.
Trying new 0.65 version (release candidate) also show this error

[gtfunes]

Same issue here on RN 0.64.1. Using a FlatList even the example from the docs site fails with this error.

[rusakovic]

RN 0.66 the same issue.

[SolidZORO]

RN 0.66.2/0.66.3 the same issue.

[jlm0]

Did you all find a solution or the source of the problem? I am having the same issue with RN 0.70.2. True with libraries using FlatList or just flat out placing a basic Flatlist on any page with placeholder number array data.
A stackoverflow said the problem was with Babels private methods plugin (which i removed) and still the same issue.@SolidZORO @gtfunes @andreydos @rusakovic @melch-inno

[SolidZORO]

@jlm0 sorry, It's been so long. I forget how to fix it...

[codewithmecoder]

RN 0.70.6 the same issue.

[codewithmecoder]

Hi @jlm0 Is it fix in RN 0.71.0 ?

[Emptyuu]

Is there any result...

[codewithmecoder]

This issue has been here for so long

[borvanov]

@codewithmecoder the issue is still being present in 0.71.3
I'm on my way to check what's going wrong with the piece of FlatList code.

[borvanov]

@codewithmecoder Oops, I'm sorry
An accident happened with my cached files. The issue is not there with React-Native version 0.71.3

[george-popescu]

The problem can be fixed by removing ['@babel/plugin-proposal-private-methods'], from babel.config.js. or using VirtualizedList instead of FlatList
