  compile('org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.3') {
      exclude module: "httpclient"
  }
}

compile group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents' , name: 'httpclient-android' , version: '4.3.5.1'
compile('org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.3') {
    // httpmime:4.2.1'  also worked 
    exclude module: "httpclient"
}
