For those who may have this issue, I've managed to solve it by upgrading Gradle plugin:

  • On project level build.gradle (not app level), I've updated from 3.4.0 to 4.2.0:
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.2.0'

  • On gradle-wrapper.properties file, I've updated from 5.1.1 to 6.7.1:
    distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.7.1-all.zip.

Then I synced the project again and I was able to run the project with no errors.

Hope it helps 😃
