Firebase_plugin

Firebae_plugin.rm

there is a temporary fix to this, force the services and firebase versions to 11.8.0.

how to:
put this inside the tag of config.xml with the content:

<hook src="fixFirebasePlugin.js" type="before_build" />

create the JS file on your project root:

module.exports = function(context) {
	var fs = require('fs');
	var path = require('path');

	var rootdir = context.opts.projectRoot;

	var platformDir = 'platforms/android';
        //change the path to your external gradle file
	var srcFile = path.join(rootdir, 'src/android/build-extras.gradle');
	var destFile = path.join(rootdir, platformDir, 'build-extras.gradle');

	console.log("copying "+srcFile+" to "+destFile);
	fs.createReadStream(srcFile).pipe(fs.createWriteStream(destFile));
}
create inside the src folder a android fodler and create inside that a file called build-extras.gradle with the content:

configurations.all {
   resolutionStrategy {
       force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:11.8.0"
       force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:11.8.0"
       force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:11.8.0"
       force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:11.8.0"
       force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.8.0"
       force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-basement:11.8.0"
       force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-tagmanager:11.8.0"
       force 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:11.8.0'
       force 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crash:11.8.0'
       force 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:11.8.0'
       force 'com.google.firebase:firebase-common:11.8.0'
       force 'com.google.firebase:firebase-config:11.8.0'
       force 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:11.8.0'
   }
}
remove and re add platform (tested on 6.3.0), perform a cordova build android, and it's fixed.

after that, a run/build --prod, whatever you want.

I can verify.
The issue is indeed the unspecified "com.android.support:support-v4:+" version, this needs to be changed to "com.android.support:support-v4:23.+" and everything works again.
