Running Gradle task 'assembleRelease'... Done 49.7s
*******************************************************************************************
The Gradle failure may have been because of AndroidX incompatibilities in this Flutter app.
See https://goo.gl/CP92wY for more information on the problem and how to fix it.
*******************************************************************************************
Gradle task assembleRelease failed with exit code 1
```

Start by reproducing the release build with the reported Flutter and plugin versions, then inspect Android and Gradle dependency resolution around the duplicate android.support.v4.os.ResultReceiver class. Confirm whether the failure is caused by AndroidX incompatibility or duplicate support libraries; done means assembleRelease completes successfully.
