I had the same issue in Samsung tab 4.4.2 device. The issue is not because of the google play services. It is because of the multidex support enabled in Gradle script but forgot to update the AndroidManifest.xml.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.myapp">
    <application
            android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication" >
        ...
    </application>
</manifest>

It is resolved after adding android:name into manifest file.

According to that site, You need to add the following @Override method to the class that extends Application:

public class FirebaseCntx extends Application {
    ...
    @Override
    protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {

        super.attachBaseContext(base);
        MultiDex.install(this);
    }
    ...
}
