Didn't find class “com.google.firebase.provider.FirebaseInitProvider”

Question

Before, my program run well. But When I just updated my Android studio to the latest version (2.2 built on 15-sept-16), I am having the following error. When I built it, it says

Answer 1

In app module build.gradle

android {
   ...
   defaultConfig {
      multiDexEnabled true
      ...
   }
}

dependencies {
  // add dependency 
  compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'
}

Change name in AndroidManifest.xml

<application
   ....
  android:name=".MyApplication">

 // ...
</application>

Crate a MyApplication.java file

public class MyApplication extends Application {

    @Override
    protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {
        super.attachBaseContext(base);
        MultiDex.install(this);
    }

}

Answer 2

just remove the google play services dependencies if you are including it. I am able to fix this error everytime using this. If you are using google maps or any other specific google service then include the dependency for that particular service only. Also try to check the version of google play service dependency.

app=>build.gradle

android {
.....
defaultConfig {
......
 multiDexEnabled true//add this line
}
......
dependencies{
 compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'//add this line
}

In manifest

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
....
<application
....
 android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication" 
...>
 <activity   />
...

</application>

</manifest>
