I have same issue. Had to literally break my entire project apart to find out its intercom_flutter package issue.

`ERROR:/Users/szymondziak/.gradle/caches/transforms-3/f6bcea4b0cee2026560f7193f25e3c23/transformed/lifecycle-livedata-core-2.8.1-runtime.jar: R8: java.lang.NullPointerException

Seems like a duplicate of https://github.com/v3rm0n/intercom_flutter/issues/436.

Please test the example app and update your gradle version same as the example app. https://github.com/v3rm0n/intercom_flutter/issues/436#issuecomment-2146614948

You need to use AGP version 8. Please follow the below steps:

• android/app/build.gradle Make sure to add the following under android section

    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }

    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = '1.8'
    }

• android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties Update your distributionUrl

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-8.5-bin.zip

• android/settings.gradle

id "com.android.application" version "8.1.4" apply false
id "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android" version "1.9.21" apply false
