Fix: CS1998 "This async method lacks 'await' operators and will run synchronously" in C#

How to cancel a StreamSubscription in dispose to avoid a setState-after-dispose crash in Flutter

A stream keeps emitting after the user leaves the screen, its onData calls setState on a disposed State, and Flutter throws. Store the subscription, cancel it in dispose before super.dispose, and the callback can never fire on a dead widget. The full pattern for Flutter 3.44.

After an await, the widget may already be disposed, and calling setState throws. Guard the resume with if (!mounted) return; and, better, cancel the work that triggers it. The full pattern for Flutter 3.44.
