Unable to merge dex error in android studio 3.0

I am looking for the answer that can help me to solve this problem. I am trying to solve this problem for last 2 days.But still, I didn't get the answer that can solve my problem. I have tried so many solutions which are given here.But no solution worked for me.
Please help me to solve this problem.Any help will be appreciated.
The actual problem is:
Error:Execution failed for task
':app:transformDexArchiveWithExternalLibsDexMergerForGlobalServerDebug'.
java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveMergerException: Unable to merge dex
this is occurring every time when I run my existing project on android studio 3.0
I have tried so many solutions for this like:
1- To add mutidexenabled true in gradle
2- To change the version of dependencies
3- To change the compile keyword with the implementation
4- To clean and rebuild the project
5- Delete the Gradle file(this was so difficult because when you again
restarted the project no Gradle file will be auto-regenerated) etc.
I am looking for the solutions which are other than those which are mentioned above. Please help me out. Please...

Add this in your build.gradle
android {
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}
}
First sync gradle then
From the Build menu -> press the Clean Project button.
When task completed, press the Rebuild Project button from the Build menu.
compile is now deprecated so it's better to use implementation or api
hope this helps you.

Try this
Use this
com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.6.0
com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.6.0
Instead of this
com.google.android.gms:play-services:9.8.0
after Sync -> clean -> rebuild

ModuleVersionNotFoundException android studio

when i click on run button then i got this error
Error:org.gradle.api.artifacts.ResolveException: Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':app:_debugApkCopy'.
Error:org.gradle.internal.resolve.ModuleVersionNotFoundException: Could not find com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.0.1.

i have not used v-27 then why i am facing v7 issue
thanks in advance

Add allprojects block in your app level build file
1.
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
maven {
url 'https://maven.google.com'
}}}
2.
New projects created using Android Studio 3.0 and higher also include
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
google()
}}
And change your compileSdkVersion to 26 and also buildToolsVersion "26.0.1" then sync your project
Hope this will help you.

Try this i have same problem i solved using below dependencies of Facebook
Use this
compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.26.0'
instead of this
compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:[4,5)'

There are dependencies that require the entire hierarchy of modules to include the repository.
With Kotlin DSL
build.gradle.kts (Project)
allprojects {
repositories {
// ...
maven(url = "<YOUR-URL>")
}
}
With Groovy
build.gradle (Project)
allprojects {
repositories {
// ...
maven {
url '<YOUR-URL>'
}
}
}
GL

In my case, I was using old plugin so needed to add
jcenter()
After
mavenCentral()

Did you tried Build/Clean Project in Android Studio Menu

Which dependency does the app:transformClassesWithJarMergingForDebug come from? Maybe you should modify that dependency's version number to be consistent with the major sdk version.

plugin with id 'com.android.application' not found Android studio

I'm getting "plugin with id 'com.android.application' not found" error in my app after adding one library project in my app, but now I removed that library project from my app but still same error is persist. I googled a lot and tried almost all the solution but yet unable to resolve this error. For more information, please check the following "app module's build.gradle"--

Also please let me know if I can provide more information to understand the problem. Thank you.

Bellow is my way to resolve a import problem,the project use a old studio plugin. Forgive my poor English.
Edit your top moudle build.gradle ,edit gradle plugin to your studio's have . then maybe show this,
Error:Minimum supported Gradle version is 2.14.1. Current version is 2.2.1. If using the gradle wrapper, try editing the distributionUrl in C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\SelectCityDome\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties to gradle-2.14.1-all.zip
Fix Gradle wrapper and re-import project
Gradle settings follow the step fix it.

this might seem a duplicate of "'this' is not available" in debug windows of Android Studio

Just remove Hugo, and the problem will be solved. This issue is duplicated and as been already answer in the following post : "'this' is not available" in debug windows of Android Studio
A issue has been published to the Hugo repo.

I meet the same question.Try this method:make your build.gradle have---------> minifyEnabled false.
Sometime i use this way resolve my problem.

This might help, just a silly thing. If you are using minify, then check if it's enabled in debug
buildTypes {
debug {
minifyEnabled true
}
}
To
minifyEnabled false
