I'm using CircledImageView library. It works fine on lollipop+ android versions. But in kitkat it's crashing. So after searching on google. I found that i have to implement multidex in my app.
So this my application class.
public class FireApp extends Application {
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
Firebase.setAndroidContext(this);
Fresco.initialize (this);
}
@Override
protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {
super.attachBaseContext(base);
MultiDex.install(this);
}
}
And in build.gradle under defaultconfig MultiDexEnabled is true
multiDexEnabled true
But when I run the app, I get the following error.
java.lang.NoSuchFieldException: Field dexElementsSuppressedExceptions not found in class dalvik.system.PathClassLoader

Try including compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1' in your build.gradle file.
check following steps this steps
1) Add dependency in your build.gradle file :
compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.0'
2) Enable multidex and set heap size
defaultConfig {
applicationId "your package name"
minSdkVersion 19
targetSdkVersion 23
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
multiDexEnabled true
}
dexOptions {
javaMaxHeapSize "4g"
}
3) In Application class add this
@Override
protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {
super.attachBaseContext(base);
MultiDex.install(this);
}
4) Add this in your manifest in <application> tag :
android:name=".YourApplicationClassName"
MultiDexApplication.build.gradle file enabled multidexing and included the compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1' package dependency.MultiDexApplication
