I fix the same issue in my project - after updating the Kotlin plugin to 1.2.41 (I don't know if it is really related. Edit: apparently this is not related with Kotlin) - with :

classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.1'

https://developers.google.com/android/guides/google-services-plugin

Remark: I could stay with the unique 15.0.0 Google Play Services libraries version but not the play-services-tagmanager one and firebase :

implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-tagmanager:15.0.2"
implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:15.0.2"

The project is compiling now.

You're right. There is a problem between "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:15.0.0-15.0.1" and classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.0'. I just updated google-services to 3.2.1 and firebase to 15.0.2 and I can compile project now. Thanks! Note: I am not using Kotlin, so problem should be related with firebase-GooglePlayServices. – Aykut Uludağ May 03 '18 at 13:48
Thanks for the feedback about the Kotlin related or not question! – Rajar May 04 '18 at 14:54
Hello freinds, i am getting same error and i am using classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.0.1', can anyone help me about this, i just update lettest firebase library like firebase database 17.0.4 to 17.1.2, please help me for this, thank you – Qutbuddin Bohra Nov 08 '18 at 13:40
Have you tried with the 4.1.0 or 4.2.0 version of the Google Services Gradle Plugin ? (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/53156783/8203894) – Rajar Nov 13 '18 at 16:35

set implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:15.0.2' at the app level build.gradle file, if you are using firebase
set classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.0' at the project level build.gradle file

Then sync the build.gradle files

Updating messaging was not sufficient for me. I ended up updating all my firebase implementations to the newest version. Notice that they have changed them to have independent [version numbers](https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android) now. – DanD May 03 '18 at 17:05

You will need to update the version of the individual libraries. This addresses the issue where version 3.3.0 of the Google Services Gradle plugin reports: The library com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement-base is being requested by various other libraries at [[15.0.0,15.0.0], [15.0.2,15.0.2]], but resolves to 15.0.2...

For more info regarding the latest update check release updates from below link Firebase May 2nd release notes

I started seeing this after I upgraded to kotlin plugin version : 1.2.41-release-Studio3.1-1.

Upgrading firebase-core and firebase-messaging from 15.0.0 --> 15.0.2. Fixed the problem, database, auth and gms-auth-services are at 15.0.0

when I'm trying to set firebase-core and firebase-messaging from 15.0.0 --> 15.0.2. and setting rest of the services like the database, auth, and gms-auth-services at 15.0.0 gives me below error. `Please fix the version conflict either by updating the version of the google-services plugin` – Pankaj Lilan May 03 '18 at 07:57

I fixed the issue using new firebase independent version numbers https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#latest_sdk_versions

SDK Update - May 2, 2018 -> Firebase Android SDKs now have independent version numbers, allowing for more frequent, flexible updates.

I had the same error and I fixed it updating lines below:

build.grade (Project: [project_name])

classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.3.0'

build.grade (Module: app)

implementation 'com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-auth:3.3.1'

I hope it helps.

I had the same exact error. I was using

    implementation 'com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-auth:3.2.2'

I solved it updating to

    implementation 'com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-auth:3.3.0'

Another possible cause/fix might be the build.gradle at project level

buildscript {

repositories {
    google()
    jcenter()
}
dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.0'
    classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.0'

    // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
    // in the individual module build.gradle files
}

}

This is very boring. Google should review these updates better. I tried everything, but my issue was only fixed by returning the version of the Google Play Services APIs:

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:11.8.0'

I had this problem from nothing!! Why? Any idea? – Douglas Fornaro May 03 '18 at 01:47
Paulo, this is a very boring! In my project, i use firebase storage, auth, database. I don't "downgrade" to mount my project. Impossible. I've tried many types of configuration, include enable/disable D8 multdex..., update firebase APIs to newer 15.0.1 ... don't solve. A week ago, my project was perfect! Today crashed and I don't change anything! Really stop build! Incredible!!! – Mateus May 03 '18 at 01:55

For me the problem was

dependencies {
       classpath 'com.google.firebase:firebase-plugins:1.1.5'
}

used for Performance Monitoring. Just commented out.

I had the same issue, the thing which is causing this error is 2 versions of same dependency with different services

I changed this:

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:17.1.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:16.0.5'

To:

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:17.1.1'

these versions are importing same subpackages which is why it is a ambiguity error basically same subpackage is imported from 2 different dependencies (in background)

Have fun coding!!
