Edit : i also this post

All com.android.support libraries must use the exact same version specification

i upgrade downgrade multiple version of android support libraries . but i am constantly getting this error . specially on these lines 

compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:21.0.2'
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:27.0.2'
compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:27.0.2'

i clean and rebuild multiple times , but that is not solution

there is no specifically any solution which i got except changing library version .

this is app gradle file 

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 27
    buildToolsVersion '27.0.2'

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.codepath.the_town_kitchen"
        minSdkVersion 27
        targetSdkVersion 27
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        multiDexEnabled true
    }
    signingConfigs {
        debug {
            storeFile file("keystore/debug.keystore")
        }
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}
repositories { mavenCentral() }

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven { url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/" }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')


    //compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.3'
    //compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:21.0.3'
    compile 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.4.0'
    compile 'com.loopj.android:android-async-http:1.4.6'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.87'
    // ActiveAndroid for simple persistence with an ORM
    compile 'com.michaelpardo:activeandroid:3.1.0-SNAPSHOT'
    compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:3.21.1'
    compile 'com.github.flavienlaurent.datetimepicker:library:0.0.2'
    compile 'com.parse.bolts:bolts-android:1.+'
    compile 'com.github.johnkil.android-robototextview:robototextview:2.3.0'
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: 'Parse-*.jar')
    //compile 'com.stripe:stripe-android:+'
    // compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:21.0.2'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:27.0.2'
    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:27.0.2'

    //compile 'com.android.support:design:26.0.2'

    compile 'com.makeramen:roundedimageview:1.5.0'

Yes, android studio will automatically set version of all existing libraries by this code. Put this at the end of your app module in build.gradle.

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy.eachDependency { DependencyResolveDetails details ->
        def requested = details.requested
        if (requested.group == 'com.android.support') {
            details.useVersion '27.0.2'
        }
    }
}

This will find all support dependencies and force their versions to be 27.0.2. This will solve your problem.

  • This causes the following error: **Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unexpected inputs: ImmutableJarInput{name=com.android.support:support-v13:27.1.1, file=/app/build/intermediates/transforms/desugar/debug/35.jar, contentTypes=CLASSES, scopes=EXTERNAL_LIBRARIES, status=REMOVED}** – IgorGanapolsky Apr 23 '18 at 18:25
  • I think you are adding it at wrong location. Insert this code in app level build.gradle file at end. @IgorGanapolsky – Jaydip Kalkani Apr 24 '18 at 08:55

To avoid this you need to update your libs too.

Your libs like Picasso also contain 'com.android.support' library which need to be compatible with you app 'com.android.support' library, And I can see you used old versions of library which contain old version of 'com.android.support'.

You need to use libs that contain the compatible 'com.android.support' version, In your case it's 27.0.2

For example Picasso needed to upgrade to 2.5.2 instead.
