I don't know why NoSuchMethodException is happening in the app. I am using firebase auth + database. I am populating data to recyclerview with FirebaseRecyclerAdapter .I am trying to solve this exception by following this answer but cannot make it possible yet.

public class PostViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {...}

If I use debug version of the app it works perfectly without crashing. But after creating Signed apk app crashed every time. I am using firebase crash reporting in which I am getting this Logcat :

This is because ProGuard is obfuscating your apk to make it harder for hackers to reverse-engineering your apk. If you think obfuscation is not needed, change this in your gradle configuration:

minifyEnabled false

Alternatively, you can let ProGuard skip obfuscation of the support libraries by using this:

minifyEnabled true
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.txt'

Add a file proguard-rules.txt and try adding these lines:

-keep class android.support.v7.internal.** { *; }
-keep interface android.support.v7.internal.** { *; }
-keep class android.support.v7.** { *; }
-keep interface android.support.v7.** { *; }
