If you enable minifying, the build will call Proguard to strip out every unnecessary classes, members and methods.
For this to work, you'll need a proguard config file, which will tell Proguard which classes are your entrypoint to your classes and which members and methods should be kept.
The error you are seeing is a common error for mismatching method calls.
The error includes a link to the Proguard manual, describing the error a bit more: you'll have to make sure that you are using the right Android Build Target and that you keep all necessary libs and their methods.
Try to adapt the Android Build Target in your properties. If this doesn't work, you'll have to check if you need more entries in your proguard config.

I'm adding in a few libraries from Apache POI I had overcome several problems, but am now stuck on this error message when i'm trying to run the app;

trouble processing "javax/xml/stream/events/StartElement.class":
Ill-advised or mistaken usage of a core class (java.* or javax.*)
when not building a core library.
This is often due to inadvertently including a core library file
in your application's project, when using an IDE (such as
Eclipse). If you are sure you're not intentionally defining a
core class, then this is the most likely explanation of what's
going on.
However, you might actually be trying to define a class in a core
namespace, the source of which you may have taken, for example,
from a non-Android virtual machine project. This will most
assuredly not work. At a minimum, it jeopardizes the
compatibility of your app with future versions of the platform.
It is also often of questionable legality.
If you really intend to build a core library -- which is only
appropriate as part of creating a full virtual machine
distribution, as opposed to compiling an application -- then use
the "--core-library" option to suppress this error message.
If you go ahead and use "--core-library" but are in fact
building an application, then be forewarned that your application
will still fail to build or run, at some point. Please be
prepared for angry customers who find, for example, that your
application ceases to function once they upgrade their operating
system. You will be to blame for this problem.
If you are legitimately using some code that happens to be in a
core package, then the easiest safe alternative you have is to
repackage that code. That is, move the classes in question into
your own package namespace. This means that they will never be in
conflict with core system classes. JarJar is a tool that may help
you in this endeavor. If you find that you cannot do this, then
that is an indication that the path you are on will ultimately
lead to pain, suffering, grief, and lamentation.

Things I've tried:
Using Enabling Multidex with javaMaxHeapSize
Different versions of my required libraries
Clean/Build 9000+ times
Using the .java files (from apache site) and adding them to the dependencies
Disabling proguard (for some reason)
Going back and configuring JAVA_HOME + path
Updating java (which ill try revert back to 1.7 tomorrow)
and probably some other stuff.
Here is my build.gradle file without the error

If narrowed it down to these three libraries (Im using xmlbeans 2.3, but would like to get 2.6 working)
compile 'org.apache.xmlbeans:xmlbeans:2.6.0'
compile 'org.apache.poi:poi-ooxml:3.14'
compile 'org.apache.poi:poi-ooxml-schemas:3.14'
once i add any or all of them I get that error message.

There are some things that break when using bare POI on Android, e.g. the XMLBeans jar file has forbidden and duplicated classes which causes Android compilation to fail.
Take a look at https://github.com/andruhon/android5xlsx which provides adjusted jar-files that seem to make using Apache POI on Android 5.x possible.

Try the latest version of Android SDK build tools.
buildToolsVersion "23.0.3"
Good luck.

I had the same problem. Then I tried the solution from issue #195094 and it worked.
My problem likely was caused by the error I got while updating the sdk tools at the same time than Android Studio, trying to get both of them updated without closing AS beforehand. As a result, the SDK manager was marking the package as partially installed. After completely installing it, setting buildtoolsversion to 23.0.2, and then "invalidating caches and restart" the problem disappeared!

I had the same problem and I noticed that Android 6.0 was partially installed. After completing download everything worked. It was hard to figure this because Android 6.0 was working before and then decided to try out the new emulator and downloaded system images and I guess loading those was not completed.

As you may have already found, this error can be visible due to many reasons. Hence you need to find actual reason behind the error.
Navigate to android folder and issue below command;
gradlew --info clean build
This will list the actual issue, rectify that and redo the build.
Hope this is helpful!

Use this :
buildToolsVersion "21.0.1"
You will find this setting inside the file app/build.gradle.

I think it's a problem with your Android Studio/Intellij IDE. Please uninstall Android Studio in your Programs and Features. Here:
Then reinstall Andriod Studio again. Go to Google's Android Studio download site and download and install the IDE.
I had a similar error and the problem came from a corrupt adb.exe file inside my user/android-sdks/platform-tools folder. So I had to delete my platform tools folder and then reinstall platform-tools using SDK Manager.

I am new in android developing.Anyone can help me solved my problem. I near my to complete project. Please help me. Thanks in advance!

Add this inside your android block:
dexOptions {
preDexLibraries = false
}

Your project methods is over 65k. You should implement Multidex

if your project has more than 65K method , you have to enable multiDex option in gradle ,, to make sure if the problem caused by multiDex ,, just run your app on a lolipop device if it running fine , then the problem is MultiDex ,
lolipop doesn't use Dalvik thats why it will running fine

UNEXPECTED TOP-LEVEL EXCEPTION:
com.android.dex.DexException: Multiple dex files define Landroid/support/v4/accessibilityservice/AccessibilityServiceInfoCompat$AccessibilityServiceInfoVersionImpl;
You are adding twice the support-library v4.
It happens because you are using
compile 'com.github.JakeWharton:ViewPagerIndicator:2.4.1#aar'
You are getting this library from the jitpack.
This library adds the support library as a jar and not as a gradle dependency.
It means that the pom file doesn't have a dependency and you can't exclude the jar file with gradle because the jar is inside the aar file (without a pom how can gradle know that these files should be excluded?).
You can check the files in the jitpack repo:
pom file
aar file
You can try to use the same library from other repo, for example:
`fr.avianey.com.viewpagerindicator:library:2.4.1`
You can check this issue on github.

Here is my build.gradle:

android {

buildToolsVersion "22.0.1"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "..."
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 22

compile (group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents' , name: 'httpmime' , version: '4.3.5') {
exclude module: 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient'
}
}
I simply want to import the following libraries:
import org.apache.http.HttpEntity;
import org.apache.http.HttpResponse;
import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpPost;
import org.apache.http.entity.mime.MultipartEntity;
import org.apache.http.entity.mime.content.ContentBody;
import org.apache.http.entity.mime.content.FileBody;
import org.apache.http.entity.mime.content.StringBody;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient;
import org.apache.http.util.EntityUtils;
import org.json.JSONObject;
so I can run the following code:
String sendProfileData = getResources().getString(R.string.URL);
DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(sendProfileData);
MultipartEntity mpEntity = new MultipartEntity();
try {
mpEntity.addPart("first_name", new StringBody("Jay"));
mpEntity.addPart("last_name", new StringBody("Shmidt"));
...
}
...
What exactly is wrong here - Do I actually need to delete or replace jar files? Why isn't gradle taking care of this?
Any advice would be really helpful. Thanks in advance!

Update: I got the answer from this post
Android Gradle plugin 0.7.0: "duplicate files during packaging of APK"
android {

}

Thats not problem in Android Studio only your system require internet connection
Just extends class MultipartEntity
Than press Alt+Enter
Than click find jar on web
Select httpmime-4.0-alpha4.jar
Than right click on project structure
Click open module setting
In dependencies tab click on + icon on right side
Than click on file dependency select http:mime file added
Finally build project
