# FAQ

> Common Flutter runtime issues and fixes.

## Where should I look first when my Flutter build fails?

Start with these docs:

* [Flutter runtime troubleshooting](/runtimes/flutter/flutter#troubleshooting)
* [Rive Native troubleshooting](/runtimes/flutter/rive-native#troubleshooting)
* [Building `rive_native`](/runtimes/flutter/rive-native#building-rive-native)
* [Flutter migration guide](/runtimes/flutter/migration-guide)

Most build issues come from setup/version mismatches, stale native artifacts, or skipped native setup. A clean rebuild usually helps:

```bash theme={null}
flutter clean
flutter pub get
flutter run
```

If native libraries were not downloaded, run the `rive_native` setup CLI for your target platform:

```bash theme={null}
dart run rive_native:setup --verbose --clean --platform <platform>
```

Replace `<platform>` with the platform you are building for (for example, `android` or `macos`).
You can also provide multiple platforms as a comma-separated list (for example, `android,ios,macos`).

If you still see setup errors, follow [Rive Native troubleshooting](/runtimes/flutter/rive-native#troubleshooting). For Android-specific setup issues, see the [Android notes](/runtimes/flutter/rive-native#android).

## `LateInitializationError: Field 'makeFlutterFactory' has not been initialized`

If you see an error like `LateInitializationError: Field 'makeFlutterFactory' has not been initialized`, make sure you initialize Rive before showing any Rive widgets.

Call `await RiveNative.init()` early (for example in `main()`), before creating or using `Factory.flutter`/`Factory.rive`.

```dart theme={null}
import 'package:flutter/widgets.dart';
import 'package:rive/rive.dart';

Future<void> main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  await RiveNative.init();
  runApp(const MyApp());
}
```

## How to enable 16KB page support on Android?

Rive Flutter `0.14.x` includes 16KB page support by default.

If you're on `0.13.x`, you need to specify the NDK version used by setting `rive.ndk.version=28.1.13356709` in your `gradle.properties` file.

This gives you 16KB page support and flexibility to control the NDK used for future updates.
