When I implement 

implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:17.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:18.0.0'

The Manifest not Sync, Error message like this:

ERROR: Manifest merger failed : Attribute application@appComponentFactory value=(android.support.v4.app.CoreComponentFactory) from [com.android.support:support-compat:28.0.0] AndroidManifest.xml:22:18-91 is also present at [androidx.core:core:1.0.0] AndroidManifest.xml:22:18-86 value=(androidx.core.app.CoreComponentFactory). Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:appComponentFactory"' to element at AndroidManifest.xml:7:5-25:19 to override.

My manifest doc:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.gokhanyilmaz.appseriestracker"

Firebase migrated to AndroidX in the latest release. It means that you are using both, support libraries and androidx libraries.

You can:

  • migrate to androidx as described below
  • downgrade your firebase dependencies (but it is not a real solution because you have to migrate before or after)

You can check the official release notes:

Warning: This release is a MAJOR version update and breaking change. The latest update to Google Play services and Firebase includes the following changes:

Migration from Android Support Libraries to Jetpack (AndroidX) Libraries. Libraries will not work unless you make the following changes in your app:

  • Upgrade com.android.tools.build:gradle to v3.2.1 or later.
  • Upgrade compileSdkVersion to 28 or later.
  • Update your app to use Jetpack (AndroidX); follow the instructions in Migrating to AndroidX.

I just got the same problem like you. And this is how I solve it. You can try it: (i'm using newest android version of 2019) I change this: 

implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:17.0.0'

implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:18.0.0'

into this:

 implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.5'
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:16.0.5'

and if you you want to implement firebase database. I think we should you this: 

implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-database:16.0.4'

Instead of following introduction on Firebase Documentation. Hope it work for you

You firebase versions are incompatible. You can check the latest releases for compatibility or you can use this

implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore:19.0.2'
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:17.0.0'
