Open your system command prompt terminal -  Go to your Project folder path  root project folder   -  Execute following command   command  - gradlew clean or   gradlew clean  Make sure that all your gradle dependencies are of same version  -  Example  - your appcompat and recyclerview dependencies should have same version   -  Change your gradle dependencies to same version like  -  compile  com android support appcompat-v7 23 4 0  compile  com android support design 23 4 0  compile  com android support recyclerview-v7 23 4 0  compile  com android support cardview-v7 23 4 0    -  Rebuild your project and it will work fine

I resolved the issue by double checking the  libs  directory and removing redundant jars  even though those jars were not manually added in the dependencies

There may be different reason for reported issue  few days back also face this issue  duplicate jar   after upgrading studio  From all stackoverflow I tried all the suggestion but nothing worked for me   But this is for sure some duplicate jar is there  For me it was present in one library libs folder as well as project libs folder  So I removed from project libs folder as it was not required here  So be careful while updating the studio  and try to understand all the gradle error

I got this error because I did not have the correct line in my build gradle  I am using the org apache http legacy jar library  which requires this   android     useLibrary  org apache http legacy              So check that you have everything in your gradle file that is required

see if their duplicate jars or dependencies your adding remove it and your error will be gone  Eg  if you add android supportv4 jar and also dependency you will get the error so remove the jar error will be gone

For me the issue was caused by com google android exoplayer conflicting with com facebook android audience-network-sdk   I fixed the problem by excluding the exoplayer library from the audience-network-sdk    compile   com facebook android audience-network-sdk 4 24 0         exclude group   com google android exoplayer
