I'm still facing this issue and haven't found a working solution yet.

Every time I run my Flutter app on iOS Simulator, I get the following error:

Error initializing DevFS:
DevFSException(Service disconnected, _createDevFS: (-32000) Service connection disposed, null)

Steps I've tried so far:

• Ran flutter clean, flutter pub get

• Reinstalled pods (deleted Pods, Podfile.lock, .symlinks, etc.)

• Rebuilt iOS project with pod install

• Erased and restarted all simulators

• Simplified my main.dart to just show a Text widget

• Made sure all xcconfig files include CocoaPods settings

• Tried different iOS simulator devices

• Updated Flutter to latest stable (Flutter 3.22.x at time of writing)

• Verified flutter doctor has no errors

• Also tried flutter run --release

Still getting the same error.

Full crash report shows a segmentation fault (SIGSEGV) around UIImageView/intrinsicContentSize which may suggest a corrupted image or native issue.

If anyone has encountered this or found a workaround, I’d really appreciate any tips or directions
