Answer 1

it was still not working after I migrated to androidx

I simply install google play service on my sdk and it worked

Answer 2

After a lot of tries, I've just created a new Flutter project and just copy past the pubspec.yaml, lib and assets folder from the old project to the new one, and the problem solved

Answer 3

When you update your Android Studio version from 3.2 to 3.3. Android Studio version 3.3 onwards you can either use either android libraries or androidx libraries but

In flutter platform, flutter will always take the newest configuration of android studio.

This is the main reason why users get an error to use dependency according to androidx.

To migrate the flutter project to AndroidX, check this link: https://flutter.dev/docs/development/packages-and-plugins/androidx-compatibility

I Faced this problem recently. After looking for many hours I came across this medium page https://medium.com/@swhussain110/how-to-migrate-your-flutter-app-to-androidx-9a78eaaa924b

Follow these steps

1. In project level build.gradle change classpath to com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.1.
2. In app level build.gradle change your compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion to 28.
3. Now right click on android directory in your flutter project go to Flutter and click on Open Android module in Android Studio. Open project in a new window.
4. Now go to Refactor in the toolbar and click Migrate to AndroidX.
5. Then click Do Refactor and wait for gradle to build.

Answer 5

I've made the migration successfully by using Sam's answer!

1. Open the Flutter project into Android Studio
2. Right click on the android directory and Flutter -> Open Android module in Android Studio. It asked me to upgrade my gradle plugin.
3. Then I installed Google Play Services. Tools -> SDK Manager -> SDK Tools and chek the Goolge Play Services.

Answer 6

Add this to the end of your pubspec.yaml file, without any parent:

module:
  androidX: true

Then, at android/graddle.properties add:

android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true

Run at your CLI:

flutter clean

and rerun your code

flutter run

This may adjust your problem with AndroidX.

For your SDK, i think you may change inside android/app/build.gradle

minSdkVersion 21
targetSdkVersion 28
multiDexEnabled true

the multiDexEnabled is optional (in case of some error related to it).

I think this may solve your problem, please give me a feedback about it.
