meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version" android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version"

Although the code is still an error occurs.

Answer 1

You need to move <meta-data> tag outside <activity> tag and inside <application> tag.

Like so.

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    >
    <activity 
       ......
     ......
    </activity>

   <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"  
   android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />

</application>
