Android build app (APK) closing on Phone Auth function: verifyPhoneNumber(phone,timeout)

[SparshaDhar]

Hi,
While on version 3.6.0 Phone Auth is working perfectly, whenever using the latest plugin version 4.1.0 the apk build closes automatically (stops working) everytime on calling cordova.plugins.firebase.auth.verifyPhoneNumber(phone, timeout)
My cordova android version is android@8.1.
Can this be fixed? Thankyou so much.

@SparshaDhar logcat output could help to understand source of the problem.

@chemerisuk Thanks for the quick reply, I tried to filter out the logs (I'm a newbie). I attached the file: logs.txt. Its huge.
Hope this helps

@SparshaDhar same problem here firebase/firebase-android-sdk#2164. It looks like the problem should be fixed by Google Firebase team. For now you could add

implementation "androidx.browser:browser:1.2.0"

to app/build.gradle to solve the issue.
