1.add following script to your android{} tag in build.gradle to generate a release build:

signingConfigs {
    testConfig{
        storeFile file("X:/XXXX/yourkeystore")
        storePassword "yourKeyPassword"
        keyAlias "yourAlias"
        keyPassword "yourAliasPassword"
    }
}

buildTypes{
    release {
        signingConfig  signingConfigs.testConfig
        minifyEnabled true
        shrinkResources true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
}

2.run command "gradle clean build" in you command line.
