        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
    packagingOptions {
        exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
        exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE-FIREBASE.txt'
        exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1'
    compile 'com.firebase:firebase-client-android:2.5.2+'
}

i checked my firebase url. It's Perfectly Correct.

Answer 1

It's because you are not authorized to the Database, check the Rules Tab in the Realtime database

If it's

{
  "rules": {
    ".read": "auth != null",
    ".write":"auth != null"
  }
}

This means only authorized user's can write and read the Data.

Changing to

{
  "rules": {
    ".read": true,
    ".write":true
  }
}

Allows anyone to write the Database

When going for Production be sure to use the first one
