Previously, GCM was working fine but after updating Google Play Services it stopped working. I am encountered with the following logcat error:

java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: The method 'java.io.File android.support.v4.content.ContextCompat.getNoBackupFilesDir(android.content.Con‌​text)' was expected to be of type virtual but instead was found to be of type direct (declaration of 'com.google.android.gms.iid.zzd' appears in /data/app/com.notnul.notnul-1/base.apk) at com.notnul.notnul.RegistrationIntentService.onHandleIntent(RegistrationIntentSer‌​vice.java:53)

And here is my code where logcat is pointing:

instanceID = InstanceID.getInstance(this);
GCM_Token = InstanceID.getInstance(getApplicationContext()).getToken(authorizedEntity, scope);
GCM_InstaceID = instanceID.getInstance(getApplicationContext()).getId();

I am unable to find the error. Can anyone help me regarding this? Thanks in advance!

  • Did you try clean build? – Eugen Pechanec Jun 05 '16 at 13:07
  • For additional inputs you can check the gradle dependecies tree by typing `gradle -q app:dependencies --configuration compile` then update the dependencies in `build.gradle` like: `compile('com.mcxiaoke.viewpagerindicator:library:2.4.1') { exclude module: 'support-v4'; } compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.4.0'`. You can check [Diego Giorgini's](http://stackoverflow.com/a/37356831/5995040) or [stegranet's](http://stackoverflow.com/a/37355739/5995040) implementation. Hope this help. – Mr.Rebot Jun 08 '16 at 06:11
