Change your compileSdk 30 to 31.

It worked for me!

   compileSdk 31

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.lifecycle"
        minSdk 21
        targetSdk 30
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"

        testInstrumentationRunner "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }

Try to downgrade Kotlin library. I have changed

implementation 'androidx.core:core-ktx:1.9.0'

to

implementation 'androidx.core:core-ktx:1.8.0'

and this resolved my error.

Dependency: androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-runtime-ktx:2.4.0. The issue is with this dependency, there may be some transitive dependency error. I would suggest use the alpha version of this dependency, worked for me. Replace with this dependency : androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-*:2.4.0-alpha03

This is because you just upgraded Kotlin.

Open SDK Manager, install Android 12 (API 31) or above, then change compileSdkVersion to 31 (or above) and change targetSdkVersion to 31 (or above).

Then you will need to change minSdkVersion to 19 as well.

This works for me, First download Android 12 (API 31), then change compileSdk and targetSdk to 31 and sync. It works for me. Thanks – Dildarkhan Pathan Jan 12 '22 at 16:29

For me setting these two values to API 31 worked

commonCompileSdkVersion = 31
commonTargetSdkVersion = 31

Just remove one dependencies from your Gradle Scripts, then it will be solved.

Open your build.gradle(:app)
Go to dependencies
Remove implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.6.0'

After doing this the problem was solved for me.

Actually I had a problem : Every time I run my application the AAR metadata will give me an error , so I did this an it worked go to the left side of the screen and there's an option called "Gradle Scripts " click on it and there will be many options so click on the second one that says "build.gradle module" click on it and go to the last method named "dependencies" and in the method there is a line : implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.5.1' so delete the " :1.5.1 " so the line become : implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat' and it worked for me , I hope it'll work also for you
