MissingPluginException(No implementation found for method serviceEnabled on channel lyokone/location)

[iamvikashtiwari]

I am encountering a black screen immediately after launching my app when using the location plugin version 4.4.0 with Flutter version 3.7.12. I am unable to update Flutter at the moment due to project constraints. The issue occurs consistently, and the logs show the following errors:

**

MissingPluginException(No implementation found for method serviceEnabled on channel lyokone/location)
PlatformException(channel-error, Unable to establish connection on channel., null, null)

**

I have ensured that WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized() is called before any plugin usage, and I have tried cleaning the project, running flutter pub get, and rebuilding the app. Despite these steps, the problem persists. This seems related to plugin registration, possibly due to compatibility with older Flutter versions. I would appreciate it if this could be looked into, or if there's a workaround compatible with Flutter 3.7.12.

Why do you use that old version

Upgrade to V8.0.0

B'coz my project is on older flutter version and i don't wanted to migrate this into latest version so i am using this location : 4.4.0 package so is there any alternative solution for this issue

Your best bet is to try and match the version of the plug-in that was released around the same time as the version of Flutter you're using. You are going to have to put in some work here. The developer has kept the package up-to-date with all of the Flutter releases for many years now, you can't be seriously expecting them to go back to previous versions to try and solve issues.

The actual fix is simple and was given to you (update your Flutter and update the package) - you are making it more and more impossible to migrate if you don't bite the bullet and get it done. You really shouldn't be compiling anything against a version of Flutter which is two years old.
