java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start receiver (exception showed up in Google play store internal testing)

Question

I deployed my flutter app to Google play store internal testing and after one hour, I saw this exception in the Pre-launch report details. I am not even sure where to start debugging. Could Someone please help? I don't have a lot of knowledge of Android since I am using Flutter.

Exception java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start receiver com.google.android.finsky.instantapps.PhenotypeUpdateReceiver: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Not allowed to start service Intent { act=com.google.android.gms.phenotype.UPDATE cmp=com.android.vending/com.google.android.finsky.instantapps.PhenotypeUpdateService }: app is in background uid UidRecord{2a75503 u0a192 TRNB bg:+2m53s648ms idle change:uncached procs:4 seq(0,0,0)} at android.app.ActivityThread.handleReceiver (ActivityThread.java:4035)

I also managed to download the full logcat which is very large file. I am not sure how to include the file over here.

flutter downgrade to as much as possible

You have to uninstall and reinstall the app, and also have to clear the data and cache from the Settings page.

Try it. I have solved the problem this way.
