try add this in your build.gradle file: under dependency

compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.0'

then create a global application class for your app:

import android.support.multidex.MultiDex;
public class Global_class extends Application {

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

add this class in your manifest file under application tag

 <application
    android:name="com.package_name.Global_class"
 </application>

If you don't need multidex, then there's no reason to add it. It also might not fix the problem – OneCricketeer May 30 '16 at 11:30
try deleting the app/build folder and then debug, don't add external jar files in your libs folder..clean the project and build it again. Try using stackTrace option when debug – rafsanahmad007 May 30 '16 at 12:30
