[Q] Issue with Google Play Services Smart Lock and position - Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've an issue with smart lock and the location in general with google play services. Every time I want to add location/edit location in Smart Lock, Google Play Services crash immediately. Share location through stock message app? Same problem.
I've tried to wipe app chace, downgrade and upgrade it (but seems I can't do it the proper way because although I've installed the -448 version, it won't work and even the Play Store gave me issue with updating: error DF-DLA-15).
So FULL WIPE and it work proper, but after re-installed all the app, it return to crash. I've tried to unistall some of the re-installed app (the most part of it haven't been configured) but neither this can fix the problem.
Can someone help me please?

Have the same problem with smart lock and add a location. Any fix for the issue? Running Android 6.0.1 on a bq Aquaris M5.

Found the problem. Guess what, it's Google Play Services. If u install the previous version avaible for your phone u can see that the crash are gone. Unfortunally GPS auto update himself though if u disable auto update on Play Store App.
I'm looking for a solution without rooting because on my Sony Xperia Z3+ it's not possible without unlock the bootloader and invalidating the warranty

Smart lock location

My smart unlock doesn't appear to be working, it worked when I initially set it but now it doesn't even appear to search for location when unlocking.
Anyone else had this or know of a way to fix it. I have cleared data for play services and Google framework

google play services crashing without an error message

hello guys
phone samsung s5830
android version 2.3.5
rooted
link2sd installed
a while ago my phone screen stopped working for no reason it was not even because i dropped my phone , touch screen was fine and you could see the screen lights up but nothing on the screen so i had it changed when i got my phone back i noticed that google play store was missing and also went to the apps list but could not find google play services so i just rebooted the phone and everything was back to normal then after some time the phone started to lag every like ten seconds however after a day or two of monitoring the running services i noticed that google play services ( gmscorestatsservice---indexworkerservice---checkinservice ) was constantly trying to restart but the timers would also remain the same and without getting any error message
to solve the problem i tried the following:
removing all the apps - resetting the phone - did not work
removing all the apps - unrooting - resetting the phone - did not work
rooting the device again - resetting the phone - did not work
note: the phone is almost useless because of this issue
so if anyone can give me an advice i would be so much grateful
thanks

I think that 7.8.99 is the latest version for this device (Android 2.3.6).

Wouldn't it be updated automatically again?
thread: google play services crashing without an error message
thanks for your efforts guys
but google play services are always updated automatically so is there a way i can downgrade and prevent it from updating again and how can i downgrade
to downgrade uninstall google play services and install the attached file (first you have to unzip the content).
to prevent it from updating automatically I guess it depends on how updated the application you use.

Are you positive? There's been an update out for a while now? Google Play Services has never updated automatically for me. I always get a notification saying that Google Play Services needs to be updated. To downgrade go to your phone's installed apps, find Google Play Services, and press Uninstall Updates. Try this website for updates. Read the instructions on this exact page to find the appropriate Google Play Services for your device. They are for every device, yours included. Like I said though, follow the instructions to find your exact update.

Google Play Services

Morning all!
I appreciate your help on previous posts of mine and I'm looking to seek your help once more.
I use several apps that use the Google API for maps, unfortunately (aside from actual Google apps) this doesn't work. It simply says 'Google Play services are updating'. Except when I go to the settings, they are not.
Is anyone else having this issue/has been able to find a workaround?

I had the same problem, so I did this - went to Settings / Apps, turned on "Show system processes", then under Google Play Services / Storage /Manage Space cleared all data. Now everything works

All hail JadranB! Thanks for your help, this has fixed the issue.
It fixed the problem to me, but only until the reboot.
Then the problem appears again.

Yeah, unfortunately this seems to be the case for me too. I haven't been able to find a more permanent workaround.
Fortunately i figured out!
This is happening due to beta version of google play services. I unistalled the latest updates and it came to a version 11.9.75. Then, it didn't upate anymore, unless i download an app called Play Services Info.
If you stay at version 11.9.75 then there is no problem at in-app maps (reboot it or not).

Thanks. This also fixed an issue for me I was just about to ask about, where all links from my Google feed refused to open in anything but Chrome and the option to "open web pages in the Google app" was greyed out (and Opera as my default browser was also ignored).
I was also unable to sign into Chrome, it said my account was already in use. Seems to be working now.
I wonder what's going on here? Never seen anything like it on my previous Samsung phones.
Just had the update to 110 UK, but the issue has just occurred again.
It's getting ridiculous!
Same issue here, and I can't log into Chrome .. Says "Syncing to .." and never updates. Some apps are forcing me to update Google Play Services, so this is a mess .. If you update play services then Uber and Maps, along with some other apps won't work!

only workaround is to clear all google play services data
I am also struggling under this.
My Fitness apps doesnt shop a map until i delete the play service data. Works until the next reboot. Hope someone is fixing this soon.
The temporary fix results in all credit/debit cards vanishing from the Google Pay app.
So basically I just uninstalled the current updated version of google play services and forced google play to no auto-update. This seems to have fixed the issue temporarily. If you stay at version 11.9.75 then there is no problem.
Hi all,
Android app developer here. This is an issue with the latest Google Play Services (12.6.73 released on 10th May) and has been affecting Huawei devices and maybe some other vendors.
You can check the progress on it on Google issue tracker here.
Also from what I've read the "clear app data" fix is just temporary, issue returns after device restart or after some time. Google seems to be already working on the issue so I think it would be best to wait it out unfortunately
I have a couple of issues it seems besides the map issue:
2 factor prompt doesn't work anymore, and the google assistant options are broken.
Couldn't log into chrome with my google account either but that seems to be fixed after a factory reset.
Edit: most of the issues seem to be fixed now. Still no working 2 factor prompt. Other than that everything is fine again

This has been resolved for me after updating from 103 to 110. No problems, even after a reboot.

Yes I was having the problem too until I disabled Play Services and left the beta program in the play store, then updated again. Leaving the beta definitely solved the issue.
Hi,
So I have 12.6.73 and still this problem.
Can someone help?

Google Play Services won't run unless you update Google Play Services

This notification keeps on popping, I already searched for solution in the net but it is till persisting. I tried clearing GPS cache and data, FC GPS, restart, manually updated the app and downloading from apkmirror the latest. Also tried updating from PS but it says it is up to date and my only option in PS Is to deactivate GPS.
All Google apps are working like playstore, Google search and etc.
I'm on stock, non rooted, exynos, SM-950F/DS, on latest security patch. I'm using swift installer fully updated.
Why did not you update google play services directly from play store? I have had bad experiences with substratum and other theming tools, they create some problems when updating firmwares and some other apps and components, it is mandatory to uninstall ALL the theming and overlay elements when updating system components

Win is right. You need to go through the official play store. Google beefed up its security to keep malicious apps and pirated apps off any phones. So its caused problems when your trying to update system apps from a 3rd party source. The best thing is to find a full most recent gapps package that includes play store and play store services and id use adb. I dont know if it would work but thats my suggestion.

I did try to update it in PS but upon searching there is no update in PS. My Google Play Services is up to date but a notification keeps on saying I need to update it. Upon searching, there is really an update not showing on my PS.

As I've said in my previous reply.

I can't seem to make ADB work in my laptop so that's not an option for me.

I had that problem once on a LG G3.
I found out that the play store and play services was not compatible with my device. Cause some apps, even play store are tweaked differently for some phones. I had to find one that was report as working just fine with my phone and had to double check that the play services was the right one for the version of play store that was in the package.

Location not working for some apps

Hi there,
I have the unlocked European S10 with the latest firmware and app updates. No root and no google account installed.
I have the following issue.
I normally keep location off.
So when I fire google maps it asks to enable location which fine but it never finds a location. If I use anothe app e.g. mapsme the location is found instantly. When I go back and kill and start google maps again the location is found. Some other apps never find any location.
I have removed cache of all apps from bootloader and cleared app data from Google maps and Google play services but issue is still there. I tried also safe mode but no luck.
Any ideas what is going wrong? Factory reset is not really an option..
EDIT: Correct gif uploaded
have you tapped the circle with the question mark?
