'FirebaseInstanceId Token retrieval failed SERVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE

I'm working on an android app, it uses Firebase Authentication, Database and Storage. It was all working fine until this error message started to show up in logcat. (I did not tamper with any configs at firebase console)

E/FirebaseInstanceId: Token retrieval failed: SERVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE

this error message shows even when I have commented on all firebase-related code.

Therefore I'm unable to proceed with authentication and other firebase-related stuff.
Yes, I'm connected to the internet and also have gotten a new Google-Services.json file from Firebase Console but it has made no difference at all.

I also faced with this issue. As I can see it can happen for many reasons.

Finally I figured out that my problem was that the current latest Facebook Android SDK version (v4.36.0) has a bug. Everything works fine if I set it back to v4.35.0. Maybe this info can help someone in the future.

You can find here the releases: https://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk/releases

You could be using a deprecated version of Google Play Services on your device, try upgrading your Play Services first.

For me, this was a connection issue with my emulator. I was unable to load websites outside of my company's VPN. Probably worth confirming that you can do that (load up yahoo or stackoverflow on the device's browser) if you're having this issue. Once I figured out my emulator's connection issues, I was able to get the token.

In my case, I was facing an Internet connectivity Issue. Make sure your Internet Connection is Strong enough to Generate FcmToken.
