Java.lang.noclassdeffounderror: Com.google.android.gms.common.internal.zzd

Using Maps api v2 and it works perfectly with 4.4 , 5.0, 5.1, 5.1.1 , 6 but app crashes when I try 4.2.2. I've been doing lots of research but nothing seems to work. Here's the com

Solution 1:

3 Simple Steps:

Step#1: Multidexing is a new feature and so requires a support library to be compatible with pre-lollipop devices. You need to add the following to your gradle file dependencies:

compile'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.0'

Step#2: Also enable multidex output in your gradle file:

android {
compileSdkVersion 21
buildToolsVersion "21.1.0"

defaultConfig {
    ...
    minSdkVersion 14
    targetSdkVersion 21
    ...

    // Enabling multidex support.
    multiDexEnabled true
   }
}

Step#3: And then add the multidex support application to your manifest:

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

Note: If your app already uses(extends) the Application class, you can override the attachBaseContext() method and call MultiDex.install(this) to enable multidex. For more information, see the MultiDexApplication reference documentation.

@OverrideprotectedvoidattachBaseContext(Context context) {
    super.attachBaseContext(context);
    MultiDex.install(this);
}

Here are the same instructions for reference: https://developer.android.com/tools/building/multidex.html

Solution 2:

After some research and hours of testing I finally realized that android has something called the DEX 64K Methods Limit. In simple words there's a limit you can reach when adding external libraries to your project. When you reaches that limit you might need to use multidex. Personally I decided to reduce the amount of libraries imported as some of them weren't really used or necesary. For further understanding of multidex you should read this,
