java.lang.NoSuchMethodError：类Lcom / google / android / gms / common / zzc中没有静态方法zza（Landroid / content / Context;）V；或其超级类

Question

我正在尝试在我的Android项目中使用firebase-core库，但它在我发布的apk中一直给我这个NoSuchMethodError。但是，它在模拟器中可以正常工作。异常消息是这样的：

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: No static method zza(Landroid/content/Context;)V in class Lcom/google/android/gms/common/zzc; or its super classes (declaration of 'com.google.android.gms.common.zzc' appears in /data/app/com.xxxx.xxxx/base.apk): com.google.android.gms.measurement.internal.zzfx.zzs(Unknown Source)

我使用Android Studio的firebase助手添加了firebase-core：16.0.7。我的gradle文件如下：

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        google()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.3'
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.2.0'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
    }
}
