I have the lastest version of android studio as of today
Something is not working with my android studio. I am using latest version of Android studio, still it gives me error on gradle build. Any ideas on how I can resolve this problem ?

I had this issue yesterday. with no clue what to do. So google it. But whatever material I came across, had no exact solution for the prob., seems like different things were working for different people.
Here is my observation that can save your time.
1. Please verify, if you've messed anywhere with resources like strings, dimens, colors or in layout xml files.
By mistake I created some prob. with my strings xml file along with layout file.
Even clean build was not working, the same error kept popping after
every rebuild/clean.
You have to look closely, to identify the prob. with your code.
Hope this helps.

First try to clean and rebuild your project from Build menu.
Step 1: go to Build -> Clean Project
Step 2: go to Build -> Rebuild Project
This should solve your problem.
Otherwise try updating Android SDK build tool from SDK manager and modify your build.gradle to use latest buildToolsVersion i.e "27.0.3" as of now

build takes very long time on API version 18

As long as I set the minSdkVersion to 21 everything is fine. But as soon as I set it to 18, the build takes like 18 minutes on my Macbook Pro (2016).
Especially transformClassesWithDexForFullDebug takes like forever.

I am looking for a way to bring down the compilation time to max 5 minutes. My guess is that it would help a lot if I could figure out what transformClassesWithDexForFullDebug actually really does on a granular level, which would allow me to remove those library dependencies which are causing this insane build time. Any ideas?

This is a common problem and the reason why many developers use minSdkVersion 21 for debug builds. I myself have two productFlavors, one with minSdkVersion 15 and one with 21. I use the one with minSdkVersion 21 for my day-to-day work, because it builds so much faster than API 15. 18 minutes is extreme though, what is your build time on API 21?
See also: https://developer.android.com/studio/build/optimize-your-build.html
"When developing your app, you should deploy to a device running Android 7.0 (API level 24) or higher whenever possible."

I managed to bring down build time to 2.5 minutes by removing all directories inside ~/.gradle/
rm -rf ~/.gradle/

exclude org.json its already available in the framework.

}

Your project having org.json:json:20160810 artifact(direct injection or indirect(like by provider of other artifact)) but not able to do find from local/remote repo.
And make sure you've your repository in your project
repositories {
mavenCentral()
jcenter({url "http://jcenter.bintray.com/"})
}
Hopefully you're connected to Internet so that it can find from remote repo:
You go File > Settings > Gradle Look at the "Offline work" inbox, if it's checked u uncheck and try to sync again.

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

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.

I have seen many answers about this but the solution are not correct in my case.
This is my error in my gradle console:

In case of problem, please repackage it with jarjar to change the class packages

Thanks a lot for the help

You need to exclude dependencies inside build.gradle files.
compile('com.google.apis:google-api-services-books:v1-rev80-1.21.0') {
exclude module: 'httpclient'
exclude group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents'
exclude group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents', module: 'httpclient'
}
Try to exclude it from all configurations.
configurations {
compile.exclude group: "org.apache.httpcomponents", module: "httpclient"
}
Restart studio and then check again. Or either select app module from drop down menu beside Run button.
