Is there a way to fix the error "Will not attempt reconnect. Reason: Database lives in a different region." in Android Studio with Firebase

Question

When I try and sign-up in my app, the progress bar just runs endlessly because my app isn't able access the database. I've tried a few solutions on getting an updated googles-services.json file and changing the URL in my code but nothing seems to work.

The error that comes up:

W/PersistentConnection: pc_0 - Firebase Database connection was forcefully killed by the server. Will not attempt reconnect. Reason: Database lives in a different region. Please change your database URL


        progressBar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        mAuth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email,mobile)
                .addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
                    @Override
                    public void onComplete(@NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {

                        if(task.isSuccessful()){
                            RegData user = new RegData(name, email, mobile);

                            FirebaseDatabase.getInstance("https://bioapps-customer-services-default-rtdb.asia-southeast1.firebasedatabase.app/");
                            FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("RegData")
                                    .child(FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser().getUid())
                                    .setValue(user).addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<Void>() {
                                @Override
                                public void onComplete(@NonNull Task<Void> task) {

                                    if(task.isSuccessful()){
                                        Toast.makeText(SignUpActivity.this, "Registration Successful",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                                        progressBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                                    }else{
                                        Toast.makeText(SignUpActivity.this, "Registration Failed, Please Try Again",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                                        progressBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                                    }
                                }
                            });
                        }else{
                            Toast.makeText(SignUpActivity.this, "Registration Failed, Please Try Again",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                            progressBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                        }

                    }
                });
    }
}

Want to add to @Frank's answer.

Even after downloading an updated google-services.json file, or changing the url manually, it might not work.

In that case, we'll have to delete the build and .dart_tool folders in our project folder, and recompile the app again after stopping.

Because even after changing the google-services.json file, the changes don't take place (like it happened in my case.).

You need to pass the URL every time you call FirebaseDatabase.getInstance(), not just the first one.

So:

FirebaseDatabase db = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance("https://bioapps-customer-services-default-rtdb.asia-southeast1.firebasedatabase.app/");
db.getReference().child("RegData")

Alternatively, you can also download an up to date google-services.json and drop that into your app. If the correct URL is in there, the SDK will read it from there when you call FirebaseDatabase.getInstance() without arguments.

Thank you very much good sir, worked perfectly, hope this helps anyone facing the same issue — nano_9, Sep 01 '21 at 06:19

After downloading the new google-services.json you need to run flutter clean hopefully it might works
