FATAL EXCEPTION: Firebase-Messaging-Intent-Handle — java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

Question

I am not using any Firebase or Youtube code/libraries in my project. Yet recently, in Android Pre-Release Reports I am seeing crashes with this:

FATAL EXCEPTI         


        

Answer 1

I had this issue after updating to firebase latest SDK. The issue was, I hadn't remove the reference of a service which was previously removed from app.

• check your manifest and remove unnecessary references which will be shown by red color.

By doing that, I was able to remove this error from prelaunch report.
