Error:Cannot fit requested classes in a single dex file.Try supplying a main-dex list. # methods: 72477 > 65536

I want to add fused location services but it shows me some error. Help me.

None of the answers they gave you were exhaustive. The problem lies in the Multidex. You must add the library in the app gradle :

implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'

After, add in the defaultConfig of the app gradle :

multiDexEnabled true

Your Application must be of the Multidex type.. You must write it in the manifest :

android:name=".MyApplication"

"MyApplication" must be either the Multidex class, or it must extend it.

I fixed my problem with the solution below:

In Gradle build file, add dependency:

implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'

And then in the "defaultConfig" section, add:

multiDexEnabled true

modify your app's or module's build.gradle

android {
    defaultConfig {
        ...
        minSdkVersion 21 <----- *here
        targetSdkVersion 26
        multiDexEnabled true <------ *here
    }
    ...
}

According to official documentation

Multidex support for Android 5.0 and higher

Android 5.0 (API level 21) and higher uses a runtime called ART which natively supports loading multiple DEX files from APK files. ART performs pre-compilation at app install time which scans for classesN.dex files and compiles them into a single .oat file for execution by the Android device. Therefore, if your minSdkVersion is 21 or higher, you do not need the multidex support library.

For more information on the Android 5.0 runtime, read ART and Dalvik.

https://developer.android.com/studio/build/multidex

You can follow this.

Versions of the platform prior to Android 5.0 (API level 21) use the Dalvik runtime for executing app code. By default, Dalvik limits apps to a single classes.dex bytecode file per APK. In order to get around this limitation, you can add the multidex support library to your project:

dependencies {
  implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
}

If your minSdkVersion is set to 21 or higher, all you need to do is set multiDexEnabled to true in your module-level build.gradle file, as shown here:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        ...
        minSdkVersion 21 
        targetSdkVersion 28
        multiDexEnabled true
    }
    ...
}

Hi problem is here remove it

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.8.0'

why?

Note: Don't use the combined play-services target. It brings in dozens of libraries, bloating your application. Instead, specify only the specific Google Play services APIs your app uses.

And use what you need.https://developers.google.com/android/guides/setup

Like for location service

com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.8.0

For Cloud Messaging

com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:11.8.0

If you are building DEBUG APK, just add:

debug {
            multiDexEnabled true
        }

inside buildTypes

and if you are building RELEASE APK, add multiDexEnabled true in release block as-

release {
                ...
                multiDexEnabled true
                ...
        }

Just do the following:

build.gradle

(module:app)


android {
            ....
      defaultConfig {
              multiDexEnabled true // enable mun
      }
}

And add below dependency in your build.gradle app level file

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
}

You have too many methods count. Android dex file has a limit of 65536 methods you are allowed to have.

For starters, if you don't need all of google play services API and just the location, replace

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.8.0'

with

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.8.0'

You can refer to this page for ways to avoid it or if needed to allow more: https://developer.android.com/studio/build/multidex.html

In Gradle build file, add dependency:

implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.2'

implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'

implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:2.0.0'

And then in the "defaultConfig" section, add:

multiDexEnabled true

Under targetSdkVersion

   minSdkVersion 17
    targetSdkVersion 27
    multiDexEnabled true

Now if you encounter this error

Error:Failed to resolve: multidex-instrumentation Open File

You need to change your gradle to 3.0.1

        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.1'

And put the following code in the file gradle-wrapper.properties

distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.1-all.zip

Finally

add class Applition in project And introduce it to the AndroidManifest Which is extends from MultiDexApplication

public class App extends MultiDexApplication {

@Override
public void onCreate( ) {
    super.onCreate( );
}

}

Run the project first to create an error, then clean the project

Finally, Re-launch the project and enjoy it

I have no idea why, maybe it is because I develop in Kotlin but to fix this error I finally have to create a class that extends MultiDexApplication like this:

class MyApplication : MultiDexApplication() {
}

and in my Manifest.xml I have to set

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

to not confuse anyone, I also do:

multiDexEnabled true
implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'

for androidx, this also works for me:

implementation 'androidx.multidex:multidex:2.0.0'

...

<application android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication">

does not work for me

All I had to do was set the Minimum SDK Version to 21 in File > Project Structure > App > Flavors

multiDexEnabled true

Please try adding this in your app defaultConfig {}.This help me to solve the problem

Mpwanyi Samuel

I have encountered this error twice and the solution for this is; Check you app gradle file to see your target SDk, if it is 20 or higher, just add one line to your defaultconfig { multiDexEnabled true }

Else if your targetSDK is less than 20, add the line to your defaultConfig and also add a dependency

implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'.

Check this link for more.

If you are using minifyEnabled with Proguard, you likely won't need to enable multi-dex. I agree with MG Developer that you should try to avoid multi-dex if possible. My solution was to enable multi-dex only for debug builds. minifyEnabled solves the problem for release builds

buildTypes {
    release {
        minifyEnabled true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
    debug {
        // getting error: Cannot fit requested classes in a single dex file.  # methods: 65537 > 65536
        // https://developer.android.com/studio/build/multidex
        // minifyEnabled true (used with release) will fix this by getting rid of unused method calls, but this will hide debugging info on crash
        multiDexEnabled true
    }
}

In build:app

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {
compileSdkVersion 28
defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.proyecto.marketdillo"
    minSdkVersion 14
    targetSdkVersion 28
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
    testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    multiDexEnabled true
}
buildTypes {
    release {
        minifyEnabled false
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
  }
}
dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-rc02'
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.7'
implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.3'
implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:28.0.0-rc02'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0-rc02'
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:16.1.0'
implementation 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.5.2'
testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore:17.1.5'
implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
}
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

Using multidex support should be the last resort. By default gradle build will collect a ton of transitive dependencies for your APK. As recommended in Google Developers Docs, first attempt to remove unnecessary dependencies from your project.

Using command line navigate to Android Projects Root. You can get the compile dependency tree as follows.

gradlew app:dependencies --configuration debugCompileClasspath

You can get full list of dependency tree

gradlew app:dependencies

Then remove the unnecessary or transitive dependencies from your app build.gradle. As an example if your app uses dependency called 'com.google.api-client' you can exclude the libraries/modules you do not need.

implementation ('com.google.api-client:google-api-client-android:1.28.0'){
   exclude group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents'
   exclude group: 'com.google.guava'
   exclude group: 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core'
   }

Then in Android Studio Select Build > Analyze APK... Select the release/debug APK file to see the contents. This will give you the methods and references count as follows.

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.dev.khamsat"
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 28
        versionCode 1
        versionName "2.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
        multiDexEnabled true
    }

For flutter projects you can also solve this issue

open your \android\app\build.gradle

you sould have the following:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        ...
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 28

    }

}

If your minSdkVersion is set to 21 or higher, all you need to do is set multiDexEnabled to true in the defaultConfig. Like this

android {
    defaultConfig {
        ...
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 28
        multiDexEnabled true 

    }

}

if your minSdkVersion is set to 20 or lower add multiDexEnabled true to the defaultConfig

And define the implementation

dependencies {
  implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
}

At the end you should have:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        ...
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 28
        multiDexEnabled true  // added this
    }

}

dependencies {
  implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
}
