After a lot of surfing  i found out the problem is GC overhead  out of memory   By adding below code to my build gradle saved my day   android        dexOptions           incremental   true          preDexLibraries   false         javaMaxHeapSize  4g     2g should be also OK            reference - ProcessException  org gradle process internal ExecException finished with non-zero exit value 2

Have you enabled multidexing   Do extend your main Application class with MultiDexApplication  I have got additional exception mesage before the error  They are as follows   Uncaught translation error  java util concurrent ExecutionException  java lang OutOfMemoryError  GC overhead limit exceeded  Uncaught translation error  java util concurrent ExecutionException  java lang OutOfMemoryError  Java heap space 2 errors  aborting   This clearly tells that the error occurred due to out of memory  Try the following    extend your main Application class with MultiDexApplication  close unused applications from background and restart Android Studio     This will do the trick

After adding a jar file to a project s lib folder and after adding it to the build gradle file as compile path example  when you sync the gradle it add an additional line as compile files  libs example jar    You just need to remove the line you previously added to the build gradle file i e  the compile path example  after the gradle sync  You also need to remove the line compile fileTree dir   libs   include     jar

The answer for me was to free memory to the build process  closing programing or rebooting the machine  win10 seems to manage memory worse than win7   Why did it fixed for me   During the build  android studio doesn t find enough memory to compile but it doesnt show any error  The  app preDexDebug error happened just when I tried to upload the compiled app to the phone   Sometimes I could get through this point  no app preDexDebug error    but when running the application on android I got  ClassNotFound  exceptions  This was the clue to discover android studio wasn t compiling all my files during build because of the lack of memory  win10 asked me to close android studio to save memory during the build   even though the IDE showing me that the build was successful

Well there can be many problems associated with it  First of all check whether you messed up with some file placements  for example what I did is I placed non xml file in anim folder  which isn t allowed  So check whether such things happened to you as well

I ve had the same issue just now  and it turned out to be caused by a faulty attrs xml file in one of my modules  The file initially had two stylable attributes for one of my custom views  but I had deleted one when it turned out I no longer needed it  This was apparently  however  not registered correctly with the IDE and so the build failed when it couldn t find the attribute    The solution for me was to re-add the attribute  run a clean project after which the build succeeded and I could succesfully remove the attribute again without any further problems   Hope this helps someone

This is likely due to your app exceeding the 65k method count  thus causing a dex error   There is no solution  other than enabling multidexing in your app
