The only way I'm using as right now to not comment io.fabric plugin is downgrading my gradle and upgrading my fabric classpath (this is working on my production app)

 dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.2.0'
        classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.27.0'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
