I'm sure you have apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' somewhere in your build.gradle file, probably on top.

This line has to be after dependencies block - this allows the plugin to determine what version of Play services you are using.

You can refer to https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/setup#add_the_sdk for more information.

In your case it should look like this:

dependencies {
    compile(project(":react-native-firestack"))
    compile project(':react-native-onesignal')
    compile project(':react-native-fbsdk')
    compile project(':react-native-share')
    compile project(':react-native-video')
    compile project(':react-native-uuid-generator')
    compile project(':react-native-udp')
    compile project(':react-native-tcp')
    compile project(':react-native-camera')
    compile project(':react-native-contacts')
    compile project(':react-native-linear-gradient')
    compile project(':react-native-vector-icons')
    compile fileTree(dir: "libs", include: ["*.jar"])
    compile "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1"
    compile "com.facebook.react:react-native:+"  // From node_modules
    compile project(':react-native-image-picker')
    compile(project(":react-native-google-signin")){
    exclude group: "com.google.android.gms" // very important
    }
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:10.2.0'
    compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crash:10.0.1'
}

// after dependencies block
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
