  • Kalvadiya did u tried cleaning the code and then building? – Jagjit Singh Jun 07 '16 at 07:15
  • Jagjit Singh- Yes i clean project but still getting same error – Harshal Kalavadiya Jun 07 '16 at 10:08
  • I'll go ahead and mention that all `compile files('libs/` lines are unnecessary... `compile fileTree... ` already compiles your JAR files. Doesn't fix the problem, but just a pointer – OneCricketeer Jul 28 '16 at 03:44

This is usually caused by missing translation strings

to see the error run 

./gradlew assemble

from your project root. you will see something like this

String out of bound exception gradle

If your string is not translatable like fb app id, then just set translatable attribute to false

enter image description here

In other case, make sure you have translations in all languages you specified
