Issue

I am using @react-native-firebase/messaging for push notifications, but getting this error when getting token FCM Error: NativeFirebaseError: [messaging/unknown] java.io.IOException: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.io.IOException: SERVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE. It worked for a split second and returned toke on same emulator but then again started throwing this error, I have also added timer in case the messaging isn't available instantly but unfortunately this didn't fix the issue.
I am using following versions

"@react-native-firebase/app": "^21.14.0",
    "@react-native-firebase/messaging": "^21.14.0",

I have also tried degrading to

"@react-native-firebase/app": "^21.12.0",
    "@react-native-firebase/messaging": "^21.12.0",

I have added this in AndroidManifest.xml

<meta-data android:name="com.google.firebase.messaging.default_notification_icon" android:resource="@drawable/ic_large_icon"/>
      <meta-data android:name="com.notifee.react.native.notification_icon" android:resource="@drawable/ic_large_icon"/>

I have added this in android/app/build.gradle

apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
dependencies {
implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:23.4.1"
}

Also added this in android/build.gradle
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.4.2'
This is my react-native version
"react-native": "0.79.1",
I have tried on both real device and emulator but its not working.
