I tried running the default flutter app from flutter create on my android device but it throws me an error. Can someone help?

Launching lib\main.dart on SM G610F in debug mode... Running Gradle task 'assembleDebug'...

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

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

    Could not resolve all artifacts for configuration ':app:debugCompileClasspath'. . . .

  • Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

  • Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

BUILD FAILED in 14s Finished with error: Gradle task assembleDebug failed with exit code 1

As suggested here, this could be an issue with the android/kotlin build. I assume you successfully created a flutter project. In that case did you try to do a flutter clean. Also please mention the steps you already followed, that could help. – Abhilash Chandran
All I did was create a new flutter project from VS Code and run on my device. That's it. This is very frustrating because I created a web flutter project and I can run it just fine. – Serpentarius
Please don't be frustrated. :-) Based on the logs in your github post it looks like the build process is trying to download some jar files which are not available in server. Good that you posted the same in Github. Just a hunch, could you try to run on a simulator instead of a device. – Abhilash Chandran
I just recreated the project on my coworker pc and it ran fine on android device – Serpentarius
I had the same problem but for release: Execution failed for task ':fluttertoast:compileReleaseKotlin'. And flutter clean took care of it! 😆 (When will I learn to just try that for all problems?! 🤦🏻‍♀️) – Karolina Hagegård

Go to your build.gradle file in the root of your Android directory and upgrade your Kotlin_version to the latest. As of the time of typing this, the latest is 1.5.10, so it should look like this:

ext.kotlin_version = '1.5.10'

Solved the problem by deleting android/.gradle then ran the app in debug

For me, I found that when building that 2 different MainActivity.kt files were in andriod/app/src/main/kotlin. One had a default MainActivity.kt file with the package name that was originally generated for my project. Something like 'example.project_name' . The other one had what I changed my project name into. I went ahead and deleted the folder with the MainActivity.kt containing the import starting with 'example.project_name' and that resolved the issue for me.

A possible fix can be upgrading the project/android/build.gradle Steps to fix,

  1. flutter clean
  2. Delete android/.gradle
  3. Go to android/build.gradle, upgrade ext.kotlin_version to latest. In my case(1.3.0 -> 1.5.10), ext.kotlin_version = '1.5.10'

After doing this as well, I was getting `A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.

Failed to apply plugin [id 'kotlin-android'] The current Gradle version 5.6.2 is not compatible with the Kotlin Gradle plugin. Please use Gradle 6.1 or newer, or the previous version of the Kotlin plugin.`

To fix this,

  1. Go to android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties
  2. Update the distributionUrl to the latest version.In my case((5.6.2 -> 6.1.1) it is, distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.1.1-all.zip

I solved it. It was because of my network blocked non secured http download request. I changed my network and the gradle build completed itself.

It was fixed after I upgraded my Flutter by running flutter upgrade

I have been facing this issue for couple of hours. At the end right now my issue solved by executing following steps -

- change Settings -> Build, Execution, Development -> Compiler -> Kotlin Compiler -> Kotlin to JVM -> check Enable incremental comilation -> Target JVM version 1.6 to 1.8

- add to build.gradle under repositories in both buildscript and allprojects section

maven {
        url 'http://download.flutter.io'
    }

-and lastly run on command line 'flutter pub cache repair'

I got the problem after migrating to null-safety. I fixed it by updating the kotlin version in the file android\build.gradle

ext.kotlin_version = '1.3.50'

Then run 'flutter clean' and the app worked fine.
