Manifest merger failed with multiple errors CANNOT FIGURE ISSUE

I am trying to fix and build an Android app that is pretty old. Was making some headway but can't get past this point. I have googled like crazy and cannot figure it out.
Finally broke down and posted here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

AndroidX is incompatible with support libraries so when you use the support libraries, make sure you don't import any other dependency which uses AndroidX. Doing that will always result in manifestMerger errors. It is advisable to move to the AndroidX namespace so that your app can have access to modern versions of plugins and dependencies. You can migrate automatically by Choosing Migrate to AndroidX from the Refactor menu.
Refactor -> Migrate to AndroidX on Android Studio 3.x

Manifest merger failed (After deleting a few files)

I tried adding some new activities to my project, but had to delete them for some reasons. And then my project started giving Manifest merger failed
error. I did not update any thing as such.
I get the following error :
Manifest merger failed : Attribute meta-data#android.support.VERSION#value value=(25.4.0) from [com.android.support:design:25.4.0] AndroidManifest.xml:28:13-35
is also present at [com.android.support:support-v4:26.1.0] AndroidManifest.xml:28:13-35 value=(26.1.0).
Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:value"' to <meta-data> element at AndroidManifest.xml:26:9-28:38 to override.
Below is my AndroidManifest.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.quickstart">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="Google Sheets API Android Quickstart"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="GBL"
android:screenOrientation="portrait">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
android:screenOrientation="landscape">
</activity>
<service android:name=".NotificationService" />
<receiver
android:name=".MyAlarmReceiver"
android:process=":remote" />
</application>
</manifest>
And this is my app build.gradle file
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {
compileSdkVersion 25
buildToolsVersion "25.0.0"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.example.quickstart"
minSdkVersion 14

}

minifyEnabled false

}
}
}

}
I know this question has been asked tons of times but none of the answers seemed to help me a lot. Any help appreciated Thank you.

Set this manifest file :
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
<application
android:allowBackup="fase"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="Google Sheets API Android Quickstart"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="GBL"
android:screenOrientation="portrait">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<service android:name=".NotificationService" />
<receiver
android:name=".MyAlarmReceiver"
android:process=":remote" />
</application>

Your dependencies must all use the same version of the support library.
Try changing the following line compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.4.0'
dependencies {
implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.2'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:25.4.0'
compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.4.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:12.0.1'
compile 'pub.devrel:easypermissions:0.3.0'
compile('com.google.api-client:google-api-client-android:1.23.0') {
exclude group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents'
}
compile('com.google.apis:google-api-services-sheets:v4-rev523-1.23.0') {
exclude group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents'
}
implementation 'com.github.PhilJay:MPAndroidChart:v2.2.4'
implementation files('libs/commons-net-3.6.jar')
testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
}
Also, this is why you should use source control (git). When you run into an issue, you can just reset your repository to the last known working state.

You could do what your error says. Add 'tools:replace="android:value" to your manifest like so:
<application
...
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<meta-data
tools:replace="android:value">
...
</application>

Device isn't compatible for newer AND older phones in Google Play store

I just released my app on the google play store. My testing device is an older nexus 5 running 6.0.1, but I have a friend with a new android phone, and the app is not available for either phone on the play store.
There is no maxSdkVersion, and the mindSdkVersion is 17, which should work on 6.0.1 according to the android versions.
Here is my manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

SOLUTION:
compile 'org.apache.directory.studio:org.apache.commons.io:2.4'
This reference had to be removed and a new APK published. After it was removed the Google Play console recognized 12k+ devices for the new build.

The App does not start due to D/AndroidRuntime: Shutting down VM

I'm building an application that has a shared library and two applications that share this library.
As soon as the application starts the logcat shows D/AndroidRuntime: Shutting down VM.
If I debug the application it does not launch my MainActivity (LoginActivity). The application crashs after return from attachBaseContext(Context base) in the Application Class.
This is not a simple case of NPE, the problem is that the VM is Shutting down and the only debuggable part is the Global.attachBaseContext that runs OK and after that the Logcat message is shown.
LOGCAT
I/MultiDex: VM with version 2.1.0 has multidex support
I/MultiDex: install
I/MultiDex: VM has multidex support, MultiDex support library is disabled.

Android app is supported by 0 devices in Play Store Publish

We don't understand why after the upload of our apk on the Google Play Developer Console we have 0 devices supported. Our personal thought is the Manifest and the build.gradle are ok: we can produce apk, than we can distribuite it to our beta tester without problems. Can you help us? Where is our error here, in your opinion?

You have a problem with location:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
Acctording to documentation:
Caution: If your app targets Android 5.0 (API level 21) or higher, you must declare that your app uses the android.hardware.location.network or android.hardware.location.gps hardware feature in the manifest file, depending on whether your app receives location updates from NETWORK_PROVIDER or from GPS_PROVIDER. If your app receives location information from either of these location provider sources, you need to declare that the app uses these hardware features in your app manifest. On devices running verions prior to Android 5.0 (API 21), requesting the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION or ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission includes an implied request for location hardware features. However, requesting those permissions does not automatically request location hardware features on Android 5.0 (API level 21) and higher.
So add
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.location.gps" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.location.network" />

You can remove uses-sdk tag from Manifest too. Try to upload another version.
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="21" android:targetSdkVersion="25"/>
There can be problem with Google Developer console too. They are updating the system. You may try new App App release, try to create a ALPHA release.
