Now, when I try to create a new Flutter app via Anroid

Answer 1

I had the same issue on MacOS 10.13.4, when creating a new Flutter project on the Android Studio (3.1), the IDE got stuck, showing the phrase "building symbols" on the bottom of the window.

When running the command flutter run on the cli, the message was: startup lock.

then I removed the lock from the flutter sdk cache: rm ./bin/cache/lockfile

this is an issue reported on https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/7768
