Cannot find symbol error

It looks to me as if an older version of the Firebase SDK has been pulled into your build causing my changes to update the plugin for the new Firebase SDK API to break your build.

Please post the dependencies of platforms/android/app/build.gradle so I can see what version is being pulled in - it should look somethine like this:

    // SUB-PROJECT DEPENDENCIES START
    implementation(project(path: ":CordovaLib"))
    implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-tagmanager:17.0.0"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:17.0.0"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:19.0.0"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-config:18.0.0"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-perf:18.0.0"
    implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:18.0.0"
    implementation "com.crashlytics.sdk.android:crashlytics:2.9.8"
    implementation "me.leolin:ShortcutBadger:1.1.22"
    // SUB-PROJECT DEPENDENCIES END

Also try these test case commands in your environment and confirm the result:

cordova create test io.cordova.firebase.test && cd test
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-firebasex

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dpa99c/cordova-plugin-firebase-test/master/www/google-services.json -o google-services.json
cordova platform add android@latest
cordova build android

Ok, so looks like Cordova now builds it successfully but we have another issue.

First, the initially problem was having firebase-gradle-plugin installed as you suspected, so I removed that and made sure play-services-gradle was set to 17.0.0+

But now we have another problem. When I try to run/build the Android project in Android studio I get the following error:

ERROR: Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 1 cannot be smaller than version 19 declared in library [__tested_artifact__::CordovaLib] /Users/wnixon/br-projects/analytics-dhs/mobile-app/platforms/android/CordovaLib/build/intermediates/library_manifest/debug/AndroidManifest.xml as the library might be using APIs not available in 1
	Suggestion: use a compatible library with a minSdk of at most 1,
		or increase this project's minSdk version to at least 19,
		or use tools:overrideLibrary="org.apache.cordova" to force usage (may lead to runtime failures)

I have the following two preferences set in my config.xml, so not sure why I'm getting this issue?

Looks like the minSDK has been set to 1 somehow but cordova-android@8 has a min SDK requirement of 19.
You can a look at your .gradle configs and AndroidManifest.xml to check where this has happened.

I would try rm -Rf platforms/android/ && cordova platform add android to re-add the platform.
If it occurs again after this, look at the plugins in your plugins/ directory for a cause.

Closing this as an issue though because this plugin is not directly responsible for that error (as can be seen from the test case).

Thanks @dpa99c - I'll look into that further!
