This is probably because you haven't initialised the Facebook SDK. Initiate that in the application class as below.

public class AppController extends Application {
    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(this);    
    }
}

If you have the same problem, try this.

in your buil.gradle file add this

compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.0'

and add in default config this

default config{
     //other stuff
     multiDexEnabled true
     //other stuff
}

and in yuor application add this MultiDex.install(this);

Thank's myself for answer!
