Recently I've updated to flutter 2.5 and the newest androids studio, and tried to compile my flutter project to android device. Android studio throws me the error below. If I write flutter run in a terminal there is no problem compiling to android device.
Guess this must be related to android studio. I tried downgrade to an earlier android studio version, but the problem persists.
I'm not sure what plugin this is, it doesn't seem like any I use in my project.
Edit: If I downgrade flutter from 2.5 to 2.0 my project compiles again. So the problem is within flutter 2.5

There was an API change in version 2.5 of flutter and several packages must update accordingly. Your logs show that the exact package which contains the error is photo_view.
Luckily enough the package has just been updated to fix this, so just update its version in your pubspec.yaml:
photo_view: ^0.12.0
You have two options
1 It's probably a transient dependency, you can run flutter pub deps
to list the installed packages and its dependencies and try to update the one that uses photo_view (if it does have an update)
2 Add a dependency override to your pubspec.yaml, this will effectively override the version of the package being used
dependency_overrides:
photo_view: ^0.12.0
Add this just before your dev_dependencies
