Firebase login with Google fails after I generated signed APK

It's the first time that I try to release an app on Google Play Store. I used authentification with Google account from Firebase and it worked before, but now if I try to run the app I get an error when I try to sign in.
I added the keys that I generate from the Google Play Console to the Firebase Console but I still get this error:

11-23 21:34:04.451 29760-29760/? D/InstallAppProgress: Installation error code: -7
Pleas I'm stuck any hlp would be appreaciated.
Edit:
I found out that error code -7 means INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE. That means that signatures aren't matching. If I manage to change my key signing credentials on play store by reporting a lost key store and signing app with new keystore will solve the problem on playstore for existing users?

The Flutter APK installed successfully by uploading it to Play Console internal test track and updating it from there. Previouly I was trying to update it via putting APK in internal storage.

As far as I have researched this belongs to multidex:
https://developer.android.com/studio/build/multidex.html
Even if I add the multiDexEnabled property to my gradle config the app crashes. Only if I enable InstantRun (which enables multidex in background), the app runs...
If I create an apk the installation works, but the app crashes on startup with the same error.
Since I have as minSDK API Level 21, there should be no other change except of the multiDexEnabled property necessary, right?

So last but not least my answer:
All my configuration for multidex was correct... I don't know why, but after a complete OS restart everything works fine now... :)

Just create new phone on AVD and try to install app on that phone. Hope it will work.

The accepted answer was only a temporary fix for me, after altering code and a few builds the error came back.
After alot of trial and error the real problem was the jdk location my project was using, instead of using the embedded jdk in android studio i was using an installed version from oracle. After going to File > Project Structure > SDK Location and checking Use embedded JDK the problem was fixed for good.

Check if your classpath
'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.0-alpha05'
is up-to-date, had same problem and solved it with a full update.

UrbanAirship app crashes upon receipt of message

Working on upgrading my UrbanAirship to 7.2. No compilation errors and the app runs fine until it receives a push message. At that point, it crashes with the following stack trace:

When I check to see if the class is visible (Cmd-O) and start typing, the class comes up immediately.
Has anyone encountered this? I have no idea how to fix it. Thanks.

We renamed GCMPushReceiver to GcmPushReceiver. You should remove all the Urban Airship receivers, services, and activities from your manifest and let auto manifest integration merge them for you.

How to resolve ClassNotFoundException in Android Studio

As I have recently switched my IDE I am facing problems to solve this one. I have also tried the other answers but still unable to solve this error. Kindly help me with this so I can proceed with my project.
Any help would be appreciable.
Thanks

This might be the 65k methods limit. Try to use the solutions in the link.
Edit: For others who stumble this issue - #Salman Khan added multiDexEnabled true to the gradle file (as written in the link) and it solved the problem. It would be still better to read the whole article and follow the steps there.

Replaced lambda with anonymous class:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException happened in my android studio project in two classes – in both of them there was lambda expressions. After I replaced lambda with anonymous class – the build was successful.

In my case, I needed to edit from:
String id = MyClass.class.toString();
Into:
String id = MyClass.class.getName();
Because .toString() returns something like "class mypackage.MyClass" (instead of "mypackage.MyClass").
