PushNotificationException "Error occurred awaiting for device token."

Description

Hi,

I am having trouble setting up push-notifications for android.
I would suspect that the extra step I add to take (in addition to your documentation) to add the com.google.gms.google-services plugin is what is causing the error.

Steps to Reproduce

I first encountered an issue at this stage :

Simply adding the line apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' to my app/build.gradle created the following error :

• Where:
  Build file '/Users/clem/Documents/Morp/morp_alpha/android/app/build.gradle' line: 101

• What went wrong:
  A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.

Plugin with id 'com.google.gms.google-services' not found.

I finally managed to compile the app by :

1. Adding this code snippet to my android/build.gradle file :

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.4.2'
    }
}

2. Adding the google-services.json file provided by firebase in my android/app folder.

However, I now get the following runtime error when running Amplify.configure(amplifyconfig):

E/flutter ( 5262): [ERROR:flutter/runtime/dart_vm_initializer.cc(41)] Unhandled Exception: PushNotificationException { E/flutter ( 5262): "message": "Error occurred awaiting for device token.", E/flutter ( 5262): "recoverySuggestion": "Review the underlying exception.", E/flutter ( 5262): "underlyingException": "PlatformException(java.lang.IllegalStateException: Default FirebaseApp is not initialized in this process com.morp.morp_alpha.

@ClemPalf try building using the version of com.google.gms:google-services that is used in the package's example app, here.

It worked, thanks.

@khatruong2009 maybe worth still exploring why this error occurs with the latest com.google.gms:google-services, no? At the least, updating the docs to include the necessary latest compatible version.
