This issue is described in the migration guide for Android Gradle Plugin 3.0.0.
Incorrect use of # resource reference symbols
AAPT2 now throws build errors when you omit or incorrectly place resource reference symbols (#). For example, consider if you omit the symbol when specifying a style attribute, as shown below:
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
...
<!-- Note the missing '#' symbol when specifying the resource type. -->
<item name="colorPrimary">color/colorPrimary</item>
</style>
When building the module, AAPT2 now throws the following build error:
ERROR: expected color but got (raw string) color/colorPrimary
Additionally, consider if you incorrectly include the symbol when accessing a resource from the android namespace, as shown below:
...
<!-- When referencing resources from the 'android' namespace, omit the '#' symbol. -->
<item name="#android:windowEnterAnimation"/>
When building the module, AAPT2 now throws the following build error:
Error: style attribute '#android:attr/windowEnterAnimation' not found
If you didn't make the mistake described in second half, then perhaps an old version of appcompat-v7 is to blame.
The good
Update to newer support libraries, pick 25.4.0 or 26.1.0 or 27.0.0. Make sure you match compileSdkVersion.
Note: If you choose to update to something older than 27.0.0 you may run into this issue.
The bad
If for some reason you're stuck with 25.3.1 or older you can disable AAPT2.
If you are experiencing issues while using AAPT2, you can disable it by setting android.enableAapt2=false in your gradle.properties file and restarting the Gradle daemon by running ./gradlew --stop from the command line.

Try to use the subprojects{} block in android/build.gradle and set the recent android compileSdkVersion and buildToolsVersion used in the main project so that the subprojects use these versions too.
Example
subprojects {
afterEvaluate {project ->
if (project.hasProperty("android")) {
android {
compileSdkVersion 27
buildToolsVersion "27.0.3"
}
}
} }

Add android.enableAapt2=false in the gradle.properties file fixes this issue.

In my case, I removed/updated thebuildToolsVersion "27.0.3" in build.gradle.

Build Failed when i try to run the app

I have the error like
"Error:Execution failed for task ':app:transformClassesWithJarMergingForDebug'.
com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: java.util.zip.ZipException: duplicate entry: com/google/android/gms/internal/zzpm$zza$zza.class"
What should i do to remove this error
gradle

defaultConfig {

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:8.4.0'
//compile files('libs/google-play-services.jar')
}

As #Vaiden says the issue was:
"It seems that you have at least one library already bundled with GMS"
Every time that you face a duplicate entry error run ./gradlew app:dependencies and make sure that there is no duplicated versions of a same module. For example: in my case I had:
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:9.0.0'
When I tried to use firebase in my project I add it like:
compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:9.+'
compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:9.+'
That makes my app crash cause when I navigate to the: app > build > intermediates > exploded-aar > com.google.android.gms one of the folders (play-services-basement) pull a version 9.4.0 instead 9.0.0 so what I did was to unificate the versions by adding firebase like:
compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:9.0.0'
compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:9.0.0'
In theory you can solve this too by pushing the firebase to 9.4.0 instead.
The bottom line is to try to know which things are your dependencies introducing to the app and check "WHO" is introducing the same thing to the app, once you get there try to set a specific version of that duplicated dependency.

Based from this forum, try to change the gradle inside your C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\gradle\ to gradle-2.10. Also, it seems unlikely that a program that is designed to run on an Android device doesn't need all of the jars. Try removing some of them.
Check this related SO questions:
TransformException duplicate entry for common.annotations.Beta
Android dependency issue with gms play services

It seems that you have at least one library already bundled with GMS.
None of the dependencies stated in your gradle build file should have it, so the culprit might be a library jar file in your libs dir. So either you have something in your libs dir you shouldn't have put there, or a library that has GMS bundled inside of it.
Did you remember to delete libs/google-play-services.jar?

Does anyone have any ideas for what I might be doing wrong?

Gradle plugin v0.14.0 for Android adds full multidex support.
Remove all the build.gradle changes you made (for multidex), and simply add the following:
android {
defaultConfig {
...
multiDexEnabled = true
}
}

Trying adding the following code to your build.gradle, worked for me.
android{
...
dexOptions {
preDexLibraries = false
}
afterEvaluate {
tasks.matching {
it.name.startsWith('dex')
}.each { dx ->
if (dx.additionalParameters == null) {
dx.additionalParameters = ['--multi-dex']
} else {
dx.additionalParameters += '--multi-dex'
}
}
}
...
}

instead of including the entire google library,
use only the ones you require.
for ex. use:
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:7.8.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:7.8.0'
instead of
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:7.8.0'

Try to disabled "Instant run":
In android studio:
Menu File -> Settings
In Build, Execution, Deployment -> Instant run
UNCHECK Enabled Instant Run to hot swap code/resource changes on deploy (default enabled)

None of the answers they gave you were exhaustive. The problem lies in the Multidex. You must add the library in the app gradle :
implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
After, add in the defaultConfig of the app gradle :
multiDexEnabled true
Your Application must be of the Multidex type.. You must write it in the manifest :
android:name=".MyApplication"
MyApplication must be either the Multidex class, or it must extend it.

Multiple dex files define Lcom/google/ads/AdRequest$ErrorCode
Try removing com.google.admobsdk-googleplay or similar if you already have it, it seems like another plugin is already including the need libraries.

The solution is to remove this line:
compile files('libs/google-play-services.jar')
and to delete the corresponding jar from the lib folder. This is not necessary any more because of this line:
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:+'
Also note that you should generally not put a + there but rather maintain a fixed version number to ensure your app's stability.
E.g.
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.87'

Yeah, the build was broken. I didn't notice it locally. But thanks to you it's fixed and deployed to maven central. Clear your cache to get the new build of 1.8.2.

It looks like the crouton library is mispackaged. If you examine its contents:

Everything is inside a release directory, but based on the error message, Configuration$1.class is in the package de.keyboardsurfer.android.widget.crouton (without release). You can contact the library author, or you could disassemble the jar, pull everything inside the release directory one level up, and repackage it.

The packing is wrong for the library on maven repository. So by the time it is corrected by author you can use the this libary as module by downloading and adding it in your project structure .
The path is https://github.com/keyboardsurfer/Crouton
I have informed author Benjamin Weiss on Google plus regarding the same.
