That's problem with RecyclerView in com.android.support:design:25.0.0

Maybe there is some issue in that version. Changed version to 24.1.1 solved my problem.

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:24.1.1'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v13:24.1.1'
compile 'com.android.support:design:24.1.1'

in case you not have not removed the default provided gradle imports change this also

androidTestCompile 'com.android.support:support-annotations:24.2.1'
