in the flamingo version, the Java option is not available and it only
supports Kotlin and Java and secondly and the build gradle has these
recurring issues whenever I connect it to Firebase. Sometimes it does not
show any error but whenever I use the app. It says that the app is not
working.

Reassigned to sh...@gmail.com.

Hello, and thanks for filing this issue! It sounds like there may actually be two issues presented here:

The Empty Activity project template no longer supports Java.
An app that attempts to connect to Firebase doesn't launch.

For #1, I believe this was an intentional change. Empty Activity is essentially what "Empty Compose Activity" used to be, and Compose cannot be used with Java.

For #2, could you please provide more details on what's going wrong with your app? For example, the next time it says it isn't working, can you go to Help → Show Log in Explorer and attach your idea.log to this bug? It may be helpful to have the other details requested in comment #2 like screenshots or thread dumps depending on the issue you're facing.

But why does the empty activity has kotlin as default language and there is
no option to change it?

The Empty Activity template uses Compose, and Compose is not compatible with Java. I believe this was done to simplify the project templates that we're exposing to users and to steer new developers toward our recommended development practices (i.e. Kotlin + Compose).

Still requiring info from the OP (please see comment#4, the second question)
