Flutter error : Could not resolve com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:16.+, Status code 502

Question

Looks like Bintray library is down and I am not able to build my app. I tried a lot of solutions but none them worked. A similar github issue is there which is already closed without any proper help. Github link: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/94400

This is the error I am getting :

Launching lib\main.dart on sdk gphone x86 arm in debug mode... Running Gradle task 'assembleDebug'...

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':app:checkDebugAarMetadata'.

Solution 1

All my codes were right, the only problem was the location package which I replaced with geolocator package. Now it's working fine.

Solution 2

Only change!!

api 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:16.+'

to

api 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:16.0.0'
