Google play services not available after upgrading about android-orb HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @kmadsen, as this issue is from over 6 months ago, does this issue still affect your project? If not, can you explain how/when it was resolved?

from android-orb.

Hi @ryanbourdais this is still relevant for one of our customers (I can share the support ticket with you).
We are seeing the same issue when using system-images;android-30;google_apis;x86 system image.

com.google.android.gms.common.api.ApiException: 17: API: LocationServices.API is not available on this device. Connection failed with: ConnectionResult{statusCode=SERVICE_INVALID, resolution=null, message=null}

from android-orb.

This should be a permissions issue that was updated in the docs:

https://circleci.com/developer/machine/image/android

Specifically, this is the Android documentation outlining the differences from API level 29 to API Level 30: docs

Going to close this out. @kmadsen - please reopen if you are still running into issues here

from android-orb.

Hi! Sorry, another developer fixed this in our project so I never posted an update here.

Our fix was to not use google_apis but to use google_apis_playstore

      - android/start-emulator-and-run-tests:
          test-command: ./gradlew connectedDebugAndroidTest
          system-image: system-images;android-30;google_apis_playstore;x86
