I successfully managed to fix it doing the following

go to file node_modules/cordova-plugin-firebasex/src/android/build.gradle and comment out line 10 and from line 20 to 36
go to android/build.gradle and add classpath 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.1.1' in the dependencies
go to android/app/capacitor.build.gradle and add the commented code from firebase plugin and change apply plugin to apply plugin: 'com.google.firebase.crashlytics'
copy google-services.json file to android/app
add accent color by creating color.xml file in android/app/main/res/values/
Build the project

Is there any way to just make my code compile? I need to complete the migration. If you can suggest just a workaround I’ll be glad… at least for a while. I’ve migrated to the capacitor because the File API doesn’t work as expected.
