Android build problems after installing emailComposer and Admob: androidx problems

After adding emailComposer to my app, I started to see build problems in its Provider.java file with this line:

import android.support.v4.content.FileProvider;

I found online that I could change this to

import androidx.core.content.FileProvider;

so I’ve been doing that by hand each time I compile. Inconvenient, but no big deal.

Now, I’ve add Admob to my build and I’m getting more errors. In Admob.java, there is:

import android.support.annotation.NonNull;

In this forum, I found Android.support.v4.content and android.support.annotations does not exist.

The solution says to use https://github.com/dpa99c/cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter

Glory be! This seems perfect!

However, when I do:

ionic build --prod --release && npx cap sync && npx cap open android

I still see all the build errors…

Any thoughts? Help?
