/**
error: Android dependency 'com.android.support:support-v4' has different version for the compile (25.2.0) and runtime (25.3.1) 
classpath. You should manually set the same version via DependencyResolution
solution: dependency rule to always resolve with a fixed version
description: this problem comes when using implementation 'com.android.support:suppport-v4:25.3.1'
because implementation forces all version of support libraries to match,
if this becomes necessary then we had to add a dependency resolution because
google play services base causes trouble even at version 11.8.0 by bringing version 25.2.0 as its dependency.
