I added the following lines to my project's pubspec.yaml under dependencies, and it works now:

  permission_handler: "2.1.2"
  google_api_availability: "1.0.4"

I am having similar issue as of yesterday. Including this package seems to break the build as in:

dependencies:
  geolocator: ^2.1.1

here's the stacktrace shown when trying to debug the geolocator prototype code:

Launching lib\main.dart on [Attached Phone Name] in debug mode...

Also here's the stacktrace after calling flutter clean && flutter create . and then debugging:

same issue. Any solution?

Same here!

ugurcany picture ugurcany on 13 Feb 2019

If you want to make it work locally,
go to the .pub_cache/hosted and change the pubspec.yaml of geolocator

dependencies:
  meta: "^1.0.5"
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  permission_handler: "2.1.2"
  google_api_availability: "1.0.4"

because of the caret ^, it is taking the google_api_availability latest, which is migrated to android x.

See if this helps.

I added the following lines to my project's pubspec.yaml under dependencies, and it works now:

  permission_handler: "2.1.2"
  google_api_availability: "1.0.4"

this one solved my issue

Thank you @ugurcany and @Noyal, you are correct we updated the google_availabitity plugin to AndroidX and didn't realize this would be a breaking change (and thus didn't bump the major version number).

We just release version 3.0.0 of the Geolocator plugin which supports AndroidX and can be used freely. Just make sure you also migrate your App to support AndroidX (instructions can be found here: https://flutter.io/docs/development/packages-and-plugins/androidx-compatibility).
