Thanks in advance

Have you tried to install the newest version of android SDK Build Tools? Also, switching from compiler compliance level 1.6 to 1.7. I found this Stack overflow ticket. I hope it will help you: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24930782/classnotfoundexception-didnt-find-class-com-google-android-gms-ads-adview — Android Enthusiast, Jan 16 '16 at 15:07
Yes I updated almost anything :) but nothing works. I haved 1.6 and changed to 1.8, when i tried to install 1.7 i couldn't do it because i was update to 1.8 first. But i am getting the same error. I also tried a MultiDex but it didn't work. — Dimitrios, Jan 16 '16 at 17:17

6.5.87 is an extremely old version of the Mobile Ads SDK. I believe 8.4.0 is the current release; give that one a try.
