Answer 1

You need to change dependency to:

dependencies {
    ...
    compile 'com.facebook.android:audience-network-sdk:4.12.0@aar'
}

Answer 2

The Issue has been fixed in the latest Audience Network.

You need to update this dependency in build.gradle

compile 'com.facebook.android:audience-network-sdk:4.12.0@aar'

it will automatically get the latest one.

Answer 3

The problem is due to the fact that Facebook updated version 4.12.0 of the Audience Network SDK that's in the Maven Repository and ended up introducing this problem, it's unrelated to you updating the version of Android Studio you're using. I started seeing this error yesterday and I checked today and found that on maven.org the "Updated" date for audience-network-sdk has changed to 20-May-2016.

Answer 4

there is some problem with Maven Repository you have 2 options either you can manually download facebook sdk or change back to older version of audience network

currently sdk version 4.11 works fine

  compile 'com.facebook.android:audience-network-sdk:4.11.0'
