This error is caused by a Gradle version collision i.e. different plugins specifying different library versions.

This plugin specifies v11.+ of the Play Services Library as a Gradle reference, however the requested version can be overridden using cordova-android-play-services-gradle-release.

The js-service plugin bundles a bunch hard-coded libraries, include the Android Support library which is a bad idea as they will inevitably version-clash with other plugins (such as this one) and there is no way to determine/override the versions of their dependencies.

So in a nutshell, this is an issue with js-service, not this plugin. I see you've raised this issues against that issue tracker which is good, since the issue needs to be solved there.
