Failed to resolve: play-services-tasks

I have been tryong to add FCM to my android application for almost 48 hours now. I am keep on failing with these two errors on Android Studio. I have tried all the solutions in this post. Still I couldn't fix it.

I want firebase cloud messaging to be integrated in my app. So I did the followings.

I have tried syncing many times and I keep on getting the error

Failed to resolve: play-services-tasks Open File

Failed to resolve: play-services-basement Open File

On a side note, I am using the gradle plugin 3.1.3

    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.3'

Can someone please give me a hand here please.

In gradle (project), just change the position of google() before jcenter(), and the error is gone.

repositories {
    google()
    jcenter()
}

I had this occurring due to outdated build tools version. Updating from 28.0.2 to 28.0.3 resolved it.

buildToolsVersion '28.0.2'

to:

buildToolsVersion '28.0.3'

in build.gradle file.

jcenter() sometimes act as a mirror repository for some Google dependencies. During Gradle building process, it looks for dependencies in the first entry listed in your repositories {...} block. So if this repository is broken or something bad occurs with any dependency the process will fail.

Here there is a recommended order for repository list

    repositories {
        google()
        maven {
            url 'https://maven.google.com/'
        }
        jcenter()
    }

Put google() repository at the very first line of dependencies. It will work.

Add in your app.gradle

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
    }
}

and upgrade your dependencies version.
