Failed to resolve: com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:9.6.1

Today I updated all my support libraries and buildtools to the latest version to support Android N. Once I updated everything and ran the app, I got an error in InstanceId generation method of GCM in my app. So, I searched and found solutions that suggested to update play-services too. After following all the SO questions and answers, I am stuck and can't move forward. Switching back to support libraries 23.x.x is not an option as I want to target Android N.

Here is how my project level build.gradle files look:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0'
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.0.0'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}

App level build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
//        maven { url 'http://hansel.io/maven' }
        maven {
            url "https://jitpack.io"
        }
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.+'
//        classpath 'io.hansel.preprocessor:preprocessor:1.0.+'
    }

Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Well sometime it happens when you are not connected to the internet. Connect to internet and rebuild your project and the error will be gone. Worked for me this way.

Today I had the same problem. This solved the problem for me:

Open the stand alone Android SDK Manager. In the Extras section the "Google Play Services" were at the latest version, but the "Google Repository" after updating the "Google Repository" from version 33 to 35, the problem was gone.

Finally, I solved it myself. Here is what I did:

Removed compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:9.6.1' and then compiled the project
It gives missing api_key error because GCM got shifted to Firebase and so the google-services.json file does not work
To fix this, simply update the google-services.json file with the new generated file which uses Cloud messaging from Firebase
After this, I compiled and got another error that @drawable/powered_by_google_dark is missing from the project as I am using Places Autocomplete API. To fix this, add compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:9.6.0' to dependencies

Set all play service dependencies to 9.6.0. 9.6.1 hasn't released yet. If the problem still occurs, install latest google play service and repository in your android studio.
