Try to check [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28914217/java-lang-noclassdeffounderror-on-android-devices-with-kitkat). If you have multiDexEnabled = true, try change to multiDexEnabled = false in your build.gradle. Let us know, if you resolve your problem — Dehimb, Jan 23 '16 at 08:08
@Dehimb have tried it but it is giving error while Building the App : Error:Execution failed for task ':app:dexDebug'. — Shishupal Shakya, Jan 25 '16 at 06:09
It looks like you have a lot of libraries, so you need to use multiDex to avoid your error. Try to check [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/28914335/1229674) to get more information — Dehimb, Jan 25 '16 at 10:39

Check into your manifest file if you are using the fallowing provider:

<provider
        android:name="vc908.stickerfactory.provider.StickersProvider"
        android:authorities="com.package_name.stickersProvider"
        android:exported="false"/>

Notice that android:authoritiesin the category tag must be replaced by your application's package name.

I have this in manifest file , without it stickers wont work even on Lollipop. – Shishupal Shakya Feb 11 '16 at 17:28
I got it, update your api level in your build.gradle and in your manifest file, you are using minSdkVersion 16, update it to minSdkVersion 14 and then sync your project. – Armando Esparza García Feb 12 '16 at 19:03

Please do this steps to enabled MultiDex.

public class YouApplication extends Application {

@Override
protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {
    super.attachBaseContext(base);
    MultiDex.install(this);
  }
}

and modify your build.gradle like so:

android {
compileSdkVersion 22
buildToolsVersion "23.0.0"

     defaultConfig {
         minSdkVersion 14 //lower than 14 doesn't support multidex
         targetSdkVersion 22

         // Enabling multidex support.
         multiDexEnabled true
     }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'
}

I was work 2 days for this error. It is solved using multidex library.

It works for me.
