TL;DR: No error. Smooth run/build. But Google Maps Activity template not running on emulator and device but the Google Maps from the Play Store is running smooth.
I just created a new project from Android Studio using their Google Maps Activity template. My After my project loaded, the only thing I modified was the build.gradle(Module: app) and added this line of code
defaultConfig{ multiDexEnabled true }
After that I click Run. The project was successful in build/compile as I can see it already installed on my Android Emulator, Bluestacks, but it is not opening. No errors, no anything. The app just kept on crashing.
Out of desperation, I installed Google Maps from Play Store in my Bluestacks because I thought that if my App is not running then so should the Google Map. But the Google Map runs perfectly. So I thought that the problem is probably on my project. I also tried creating a basic android app then installed it on my emulator because I thought the emulator was the problem but still no luck.
I also installed my app on my android device but still not running. "My Application has stopped working"
Android Studio ver 2.2.3
Latest Bluestacks
I chose the Android Studio Minimum SDK: API 17
