Answer 1

I had something similar because I forgot about adding

apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

on bottom of build.gradle

Answer 2

Thanks everyone but I solved it myself. All I did is

classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.1.0'

to

classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.2.0'

That worked for me!

Answer 3

Instead of adding below the line in project-level build.gradle, add it into the app level gradle.

apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
