Please learn how to use the formatting on the forum or your posts are very hard to read.

Regarding the question, I fear I have to ask again.
What is unclear?
There are two error messages and both seem quite clear to me.

For second error as below, it is the problem located at andriod/build.gradle or andriod/app/build,gradle?

  • What went wrong:
    A problem occurred configuring root project ‘android’.

compileSdkVersion is not specified. Please add it to build.gradle

andriod’s app build.gradle:

I’m not into Android at all.
But looking at the build scripts you posted, I’d guess your problem is that you apply the Android application plugin to the root project and there it is then missing the compileSdkVersion.
You probably did that to be able to specify the Firebase Auth dependency.
But if you have the typical project layout it does not really make sense to have that dependency there.
So I guess you need to move the Firebase Auth dependency to your app subproject and stop applying the Android application plugin to the root project.
