Answer 1

This looks like an old ques which is not yet answered yet. I got into same problem, when my jar files could not be read by Android Studio and it gave me the above mentioned error.

Taking lead from the comment by -Mikhail Boyarsky I changed classpath in build.gradle file to 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'. Synced project and it started working.
