Android project build successfully but ran failed with error: java.util.zip.ZipException: duplicate entry

I have update my android studio and SDK and some package dependencies on grade of the project and since then I have faced with a lot of problem that I think the reason is incompatibility between dependencies.

As I researched I found that many people have same problems and it is not rare. I have solved some of the error but problems just appears one after another and I am just confused. hope you can help me find out the problem and its solution.

Code works well on new android versions ! (a little strange) and I can compile and run the app on android 21+. but when I try to run it on below 21 android version it give me an error. Every thing was ok before I migrate to Android studio 2.

Here is the error code I get now :

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':transformClassesWithJarMergingForDebug'.

com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: java.util.zip.ZipException: duplicate entry: android/support/annotation/WorkerThread.class

Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

here is the project grade file :

I find out there is problem with different version of support-v4 but I do not know which one should be exclude. I have a "android-support-v4.jar" in the libs.

let me know if it is needed some other information.

thank you.
