Flutter Android Build Stuck after Upgrading to Android V2

I am experiencing this issue when I am trying to run my app on an Android Emulator(API 31, Android 12) after upgrading to Android V2:

Normal Run gets Stuck here:

√  Built build\app\outputs\flutter-apk\app-debug.apk.
Installing build\app\outputs\flutter-apk\app.apk...
Error waiting for a debug connection: The log reader stopped unexpectedly
Error launching application on sdk gphone64 x86 64.

Running it with the flutter run --verbose gets stuck with the last output being:

[   +1 ms] Installing build\app\outputs\flutter-apk\app.apk... (completed in 4.5s)
[   +3 ms] executing: C:\Users\14166\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe -s emulator-5554 shell echo -n 32cccba394c538fcf9ce787aea14716102705201 >

Things I tried that did not work:

Clearing the build, cache, and deleting the outputs folder in build and restarting the app again
Made sure that the package names in AndroinManifest, and MainActivity.kt are exactly the same
Upgraded my Dart Version, Flutter Version, and All my pub packages
uninstalled my adb

Flutter doctor doesn't seem to show any errors either.

Solution

So after spending a lot of time I was able to fix the issue.

What I did to fix it:

Changed the SDK version in the pubspec.yaml from sdk: ">=2.12.0 <3.0.0" to sdk: ">=2.16.1 <3.0.0"
In my AndroidManifest.Xml moved my manually added <meta-data.../> sections to be under the <application.../> tag, where as they were included under the <activity.../> tag before

I really hope this answer is useful and will help someone!
