After spending about 5 hours, this solution worked for me..
First add this line to your manifest tag if you do not have yet:
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
Example:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.winanainc"
android:versionCode="3"
android:versionName="1.2"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
Then Add this meta tag inside your application to overwrite you build tools version, in this case for example I choosed the version 25.3.1
<application>
...
..
<meta-data
tools:replace="android:value"
android:name="android.support.VERSION"
android:value="25.3.1" />
</application>
