Flutter Location package requestService() never returns - flutter

Question

I have a function like this. Using Location package from flutter it shows the dialog to enable GPS.
Future<bool> _checkServiceStatus() async {
final Location location = Location();
bool serviceStatus = await location.serviceEnabled();
if (!serviceStatus) {
serviceStatus = await location.requestService();
print('status -> $serviceStatus');
}
return serviceStatus;
}
When its calling await location.requestService(), it is showing the dialog to enable GPS but after that it never returns the result.
Even its not executing the print() function.
What am i doing wrong here?
Any help would be very appreciated! Thanks in advance.

I had the same issue. It could be solved by upgrading your Flutter project, follow this link https://github.com/flutter/flutter/wiki/Upgrading-pre-1.12-Android-projects

Try this code to check wather permission enabled, service enabled than it returns true else false. Must configure "location" package related configuration in android and ios projects.
Future<bool> checkServiceStatus() async {
final Location location = Location();
final locationPermission = await location.hasPermission();
if (locationPermission == PermissionStatus.granted) {
final locationServiceEnabled = await location.serviceEnabled();
if (locationServiceEnabled == true) {
return true;
} else {
final requestServiceStatus = await location.requestService();
if (requestServiceStatus == true) {
return true;
} else {
BotToast.showSimpleNotification(
title: "Enable GPS to allow this feature");
return false;
}
}
} else {
BotToast.showSimpleNotification(title: "Required location permission to allow this feature");
return false;
}
}
