If you have support-v4 and support-v7 (with different version) in build.gradle then add this line into your build.gradle at top.

configurations { all*.exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-v4' }

Try this :

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1'
}

I got this error today out of nothing, after that i tried to update every single thing available, tried to change my gradle build as suggested here but none of it worked.

After hours of dispair and AS updates, a simple "clean project" and "rebuild project" worked for me.

in my case, the

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

in my build.gradle exceeded the 65k method limit.

i changed it to

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:6.5.87'

to fix it (i only need maps in my application)

hope that helps
