Instead of manually adding the package name on the build gradle  you can do it this way   first add this line at the beggining  import java util regex Pattern   Then add this on the defaultConfig   android               defaultConfig                       applicationId   doExtractStringFromManifest  package                                 And finally add the doExtractStringFromManifest method   def doExtractStringFromManifest name         def manifestFile   file android sourceSets main manifest srcFile       def pattern   Pattern compile name          S            def matcher   pattern matcher manifestFile getText         matcher find        return matcher group 1      As there are a lot of Cordova comments on the answer  if you are working with Cordova  you shouldn t really edit the build gradle yourself  it has a comment at the beggining that say        GENERATED FILE  DO NOT EDIT    So  if you are using a Cordova  the best thing you can do is to update to cordova-android 5 1 0 or greater where this changes are already present

For react native app  the error was java lang RuntimeException  Unable to get provider com google firebase provider FirebaseInitProvider  java lang ClassNotFoundException  Didn t find class  com google firebase provider FirebaseInitProvider  It was only getting for devices with Android Version  lt   4 4  Solved it by just replacing Application in MainApplication java with MultiDexApplication  NOTE  import android support multidex MultiDexApplication

User · Answer

The accepted answer didn t solve my problem    If you are using Multidex  your Application should extends MultiDexApplication instead of Application   MyApplication java  public class MyApplication extends MultiDexApplication               AndroidManifest xml   lt application       android name  your package name MyApplication        android allowBackup  true        android icon   mipmap ic launcher                    gt    Hope it helps

I was with the same problem in devices with SDK  lt  22  but for me the reason is the MultiDex  the MultiDex install must be in the attachBaseContext method   If you are using MultiDex  try this    public class YourApplication extends Application         Override     protected void attachBaseContext Context context            super attachBaseContext context           MultiDex install this              Override     public void onCreate             super onCreate            Realm init this     initialize other plugins             app build gradle   android        compileSdkVersion 24     buildToolsVersion  24 0 2       defaultConfig           applicationId  com test app          minSdkVersion 16         targetSdkVersion 24         versionCode 1         versionName  1 0          multiDexEnabled true             dexOptions           javaMaxHeapSize  4g                     dependencies           compile fileTree dir   libs   include      jar             compile  com android support appcompat-v7 24 2 1                      compile  com google firebase firebase-messaging 9 6 1          compile  com google android gms play-services 9 6 1          compile  com android support multidex 1 0 1

In my case the problem happened after we migrated to AndroidX  For some reason  app was calling MultiDex install   with reflection       final Class lt   gt  clazz   Class forName  android support multidex MultiDex        final Method method   clazz getDeclaredMethod  install   Context class       method invoke null  this     I changed package from android support multidex MultiDex to androidx multidex MultiDex  It worked

I ve got this error just on devices with API lower that 21  In my case  I have had to work with a project where multiDexEnabled option in build gradle was already set to true  I checked dex file from APK and referenced methods number was less than 64k  so project doesn t need to be a multidex one  therefore I set multiDexEnabled to false  This solution worked for me

you should be sure  to add this line at your manifest   https   developer android com studio run index html instant-run   lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt manifest xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      package  com example android multidex myapplication  gt       lt application                     android name  android support multidex MultiDexApplication  gt                   lt  application gt   lt  manifest gt

I had the same problem in Pre Lollipop devices  To solve that I did as follows  Meantime I was using multiDex in the project   1  add this for build gradle in module  app  multiDexEnabled   true  dexOptions       javaMaxHeapSize  4g      2  add this dependancy  compile  com android support multidex 1 0 1    3 Then in the MainApplication   public class MainApplication extends MultiDexApplication    private static MainApplication mainApplication    Override public void onCreate         super onCreate        mainApplication   this      Override protected void attachBaseContext Context context        super attachBaseContext context       MultiDex install this       public static synchronized MainApplication getInstance         return mainApplication        4 In the manifests file   lt application     android allowBackup  true      android name  android support multidex MultiDexApplication    This works for me  Hope this Helps you too

Add this to your module-level build gradle    android                  defaultConfig                multiDexEnabled true          dependencies       compile  com android support multidex 1 0 1                    If you override Application class then extend it from MultiDexApplication    YourApplicationClass extends MultiDexApplication   If you cant extend it from MultiDexApplication class then override attachBaseContext   method as following     protected void attachBaseContext Context base         super attachBaseContext context        Multidex install this         And dont run  anything before MultiDex install this  is executed   If you dont override the Application class simply edit your manifest file as following       lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt manifest xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android              gt        lt application                             android name  android support multidex MultiDexApplication   gt                   lt  application gt              lt  manifest gt
