41 3 I have just started a new project and am trying to connect to Firebase. As soon as I try to build my project I got the error : Could not parse the Android application Module's Gradle Config, so I looked in my build which told me that jCenter() was deprecated and that I should remove it. When I removed it, everything worked fine. However, when I tried to connect to Firebase I got the error: AbstractDynamicObject$CustomMessageMissingMethodException. What may be causing this?

12 I just updated my android studio to version 4.2 . I had the surprise to not see the Gradle tasks in my project. It was working in the previous version 4.1.3 as we can see here: But now I only see the dependencies in version 4.2 : I tried to clear the cache of android studio and sync my project again.

I can start the emulator from my AVD Manager, the emulator also starts when I press the 'Run app' button however, the app isn't loaded on the emulator and the emulator appears offline if I check through "adb devices" or if I click on "Troubleshoot Device connections" it shows: "emulator-5554 - Device is currently in the offline state" I have tried most of the suggestions found on StackOverflow like: adb kill-server, adb start-server Remove and re-creat...
