Flutterfire: [cloud_firestore,firebase_auth] Gradle error on adding firebase to any flutter app

[ShivamSinghania]

Describe the bug
Getting the following error on every version of plugins released since May 7, 2019.
cloud_firestore: ^0.11.0 and onwards
firebase_auth: ^0.10.0 and onwards
The changelog for these versions: Update Android dependencies to latest.
I haven't checked other flutterfire plugins, but they might have the same error.

AGPBI: {"kind":"error","text":"Type com.google.android.gms.common.internal.zzf is referenced as an interface from `com.google.android.gms.internal.zzcfb`.","sources":[{}],"tool":"D8"}

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a new flutter app
2. Create and add firebase project to the app (https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/flutter-firebase)
3. Add plugins with versions dated May 7, 2019 and onwards.
4. Run the app on physical android device. (no error in flutter web)

Expected behavior
App should run in debug mode.

Additional context

Target Platform: Android
Target OS version/browser: Android P
Devices: Physical device - Nokia 6.1 plus

Error occurs on both latest dev and master branch.

and similar for ios on May 16 : https://github.com/FirebaseExtended/flutterfire/commit/e92bbda854967ecc294fb72100487e487ce5f182
Might be helpful: https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#2019-05-07

The logs have this even though I've followed the firebase codelab exactly.

And the error message has Failed to transform artifact 'firebase-analytics-impl.aar (com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics-impl:11.4.2)'
It seems that after May 7 versions it can't find the applied plugin/API so it's using the default version 11.4.2 and that is causing the given error.

Everything works if I use classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.3' instead of classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.1'
But https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/flutter-firebase/#6 specifies This line specifies version 3.2.1 of the plugin (do not use higher version).

I have the same issue and it works with same same fix (though remember closing the string): classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.3'

Using classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.3' instead of the specified classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.1' worked for me aswell!

I've experienced this myself as well; I'm trying to figure out how to get the codelab fixed.

[ditman]

I have published an update to the codelab, with the following changes:

• Bump cloud_firestore dependency to ^0.13.0+1 (step 4)
• Update gms:google-services gradle dependency to 4.3.3 (step 7)

Tested on iOS and Android on my repo, reviewed by @filiph.

Thanks for reporting!
