As a result, how can I solve my problem? I can not solve my problem how can I solve it? Thanks for any response.

When setting multiple Google API implementation directives, they sometimes depend on specific version of other libraries from the Google SDK.

Sounds like the issue is that there is another implementation directive that requires a version compatible with the play-services-analytics version you are trying to upgrade to.

To solve the issue, I would:

1. Create a separate standalone module that doesn't require any gradle dependencies.. for example, if there are no Java or XML files.

2. Copy over the gradle file you are trying to make work

3. Comment out all implementation directives (probably google-related ones is enough, but can't be sure)

4. Uncomment just the 1 line you are trying to update:

    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:17.2.0'

5. Then one-at-a-time, uncomment the other implementation directives - each time running the gradle sync to make sure the project builds correctly.

6. When you uncomment the line that causes the build to break again, then see if there is an update for that line that caused the build to fail again; I'm guessing there is an update, and so set it to use the updated version as well.
