Android 7 users can't update my app, get error -504

As the title states my android 7 users can't get the latest update of my app.

Note this is error -504

My app was built with API 22. I tried to build it with 23 and 24, get the same error with every build. It does work if I deploy app straight to phone, but not when I publish.

There are couple of posts with this problem and none of them seem to have definitive solution. I changed every possible thing I can and with no results.

  1. Changed every API level and build tools
  2. Tried different play services
  3. Added applicationId to gradle
  4. Enabled multidex

EDIT: This is what I get when trying to adb install:

Failed to install signed.apk: Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES: Failed to collect certificates from /data/app/vmdl2066131695.tmp/base.apk: META-INF/CERT.SF indicates /data/app/vmdl2066131695.tmp/base.apk is signed using APK Signature Scheme v2, but no such signature was found. Signature stripped?]

I'll add all the posts I have found for this error:

For future reference I managed to fix this. Problem was with new signing system. I did manual signing and aligning. Before you could sign your app and then zipalign it. It will fail for new Android version. Signing should be the last thing.
