I tried to update the kotlin version and gradle version but still error like Please update the Android Gradle Plugin version

This is my android/build.gradle file

buildscript {
    ext.kotlin_version = '2.1.0'
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        jcenter()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.2.2'
        // START: FlutterFire Configuration
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'
        classpath 'com.google.firebase:perf-plugin:1.4.1'
        classpath 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.8.1'
        // END: FlutterFire Configuration
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        jcenter()
        maven { url "; }
    }
}

rootProject.buildDir = '../build'
subprojects {
    project.buildDir = "${rootProject.buildDir}/${project.name}"
}
subprojects {
    project.evaluationDependsOn(':app')
}

tasks.register("clean", Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

To upgrade gradle version first you have to

update this line :

distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.6.3-all.zip

to the desired gradle verion in the gradle-wrapper.properties file. Then in the terminal you have to type

cd android

followed with

./gradlew

by doing this you can upgrade gradle version

Change the com.android.tools.build:gradle version to 7.3.1 in android/build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.3.1'
        // Other classpath dependencies
    }
}

Then change the gradle version to a compitable version, in gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties like 7.6.3:

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.6.3-bin.zip

Then

flutter clean

flutter pub get

flutter run -d [DEVICE]
