1.Couldn't find meta-data for provider with authority xxx.fileprovider

First, Copy the following code in AndroidManifest.xml in android/Main under the <application> tag

<provider
   android:name="androidx.core.content.FileProvider"
   android:authorities="${applicationId}.fileprovider"
   android:exported="false"
   android:grantUriPermissions="true">
   <meta-data
       android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
       android:resource="@xml/provider_paths" />
</provider>

(You can replace ${applicationId} above to your package id ex: com.app.name in case it doesn't work)

Then, create the xml folder in res and create a file named: provider_paths.xml and then copy paste the code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <external-path
        name="external_files"
        path="." />
</paths>

After setting this up, Take photo will start working.
