Hello,
Whenever I am switching on my Location service/GPS to high accuracy mode, I am getting this popup which says "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped." And also the GPS is not working either. I am not being able to locate myself on the map. Since I have my exams starting next week and I use Ola/Uber to travel it is really essential for me to have this issue solved at the erarliest.
Please see, recently I also got this message "Unfortunately, CM logger has stopped." Although the CM logger message is not recurring the Google Play Service is a recurring error which keeps pn popping every 5 seconds. It is so irritating. Need a solution at the earliest.

you must have either flashed a custom rom over your current build or must be flashing kernel or so and since then this problem would have come up.... There is a temporary solution to it and then there is a permanent one.
Temporary : Uninstall google play services updates. If uninstall option does not become available then go to security, disable android locator or something like that in administrator options etc.. It is somewhere around in security. You will have to look a bit. Once you deactivate that you will be able to uninstall updates of google play services. Clean data of it. Reboot. Once you reboot, your phone will say some apps require google play services to run. Click on that notification and update Google Play Services.
The termporary solution may or may not work.... It sometimes worked for me but recently has not been working.
Permanent solution, take backup of your data and get back to all stock and before you have setup everything on your phone, flash kernel and reboot. If you are not facing the problem again, then resetup....
Remember, if you take backup of data, and after clean install, try to restore the data, the problem would return with greater magnitudes....
Hope I helped
All the best for your exams....
First clear data of google play services and the apps which stops automatically ....Go to settings>apps>all apps>google play services and clear data.......If this not solves ur problem ..then factory reset

I have a very strange problem with my Atrix.
When I upgraded to 5.3.0 Maps I was able to use the check in feature...Then it mysteriously disappeared from Google Maps. I was able to get it back by re-installing and updating google maps again...and then it disappeared again in about a week. Short of downloading and reinstalling Google maps every 7 days I want to find out if this is a problem on my phone, or someone else has noticed similar behavior.
--Edit--
One thing I just tried was going into Application Manager and clearing all the data (Then having to re-log in)...This brought check-in options back.
did it again
This morning my check-in ability is gone...Even clearing the data, rebooting the phone and reinstalling the applicaton updates did not fix it this time.
Possibly relevant information;
I'm in the UK
I updated to OTA 4.4.3 yesterday on my Nexus 4
Completely stock and un-rooted.
Running GEL
Basically woke up this morning and my phone was in an infinite loop of "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped"
After taking quite a while on it, I uninstalled GEL and uninstalled Google Search updates, reinstalled them both. Removed all data from Google Play services and set up GEL again; exactly the same thing happened.
I also then realised that this was happening on my Nexus 7 as well, I managed to get my Nexus 4 Google Now working offline; but as soon as it reconnects it crashes.
I believe that it is picking up some rouge data from Google's servers it cannot handle then crashing, but I cannot find a way at all to remove my settings and options from my google account, I can't find any record of this happening elsewhere today but it may be that google's servers have wibbled and a lot of people are experiencing this; in the meantime though my phone is practically unusable.
OK; so I have got it back up and running by disabling GEL and Google Now; but I want my Google Now back!
I'm happy to wipe the device if it fixes it; but worried that it's on my online profile anyway, so first of all is anybody else having the same issues today and second of all is there any way online (web based) to change my Google now settings and disable cards, etc?
Stack Trace first line (seems most important)
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'int.java.util.Calendar.get(int)' on a null object reference
I've disabled calendar sync on device and deleted calendar data; but still happening..not sure if it's grabbing my calendar data from my google account?

Removed my google account, added a 2nd account and it works fine, back to my account and it's broken again. Something on my profile on google's server must be broken; but don't know how I can go about fixing that - as settings only available via Google Now, which crash!
It's fixed itself...with a lot of coaxing.
It was made worse as I had to get a train today; when it was back up and running google now was reminding me of my booked trains, which is new to me. My train home was in something like 37373733292 hours. Clicking this card made it crash! Removed the card and all good.
Hello, I'm new here.
I have a brand new galaxy s5. Running stock everything. I set up my Google account and was able to access some features, such as logging into the play store and downloading apps. However I am unable to access the Google play games feature, I also cannot sign into certain apps requiring google+. I have deleted the account and re entered my details. I have even performed a factory reset and still have no luck. I have tried putting my phone in flight mode and then back to normal and even disabling master sync and re-enabling it. How do I fix this problem. The account seems to say syncing for a very long time, everything else seems to work fine. Is this a network problem?
Problem solved
So I figured I wasn't going to receive any advice any time soon, probably because my explanation wasn't too clear but I fixed the issue. As mentioned I tried everything and factory reset and that did not work. The main issue was when I logged into some apps requiring Google+ link such as Clash of Clans, I was unable to sign into link my account. I also realised the Google Play Games app did into work, it just showed blank loading pages for tab.
So here's what I did (Android 5.0 - Galaxy S5 stock):
Go to Settings>Applications>Application Manager>All
Now go to the Google Play Games App then disable the app. This uninstalls the new version of the app that was updated 15th May 2015. Instead you are reverted back to a older version of the app, which works perfectly. Now you will be able to link your accounts requiring Google+/Google Play.
Since Google released the update quite recently, people have experienced the same issue. I am hoping a new update will be available soon so you can update to that and skip this current update and never have to worry about the bug again.
But at least with this fix you can enjoy your Google Play Games.
Which one version of Google Play Games do I have to install?
Hi,
I own a LG G2, non rooted, updated my phone through LG PC Suite, from Android 4.4 to 5.02.
The new version, 5.02, has been causing a lot of problems with the google apps.
1) Got message about updating google services when I already had the latest version
FIX: Uninstalled all updates on Play, G+, Gmail and Services, cleared cache and installed them again, stopped receiving the message about update.
2) G+ freezes after some clicking around , loads forever and android system ask if I want to wait or close the app.
3) In-game purchases along with the settings for payment method in Google Play does not work anymore. I tried to remove the payment methods and add them again. When I want to press "OK" button to accept the credit card number or PayPal account the screen just loads and nothing happens, even after several hours.
The new update for my phone seems to have some serious problem with the Google Apps.
Can anyone help me?
Kind regards
Abotiz
This is insane!
I go to playstore to check updates. It says "Error checking updates". I repeat the process and get frustrated. I clear data on playstore and go to add my account again only it brings up the side menu and when I move that out of the way, it says "try again". I hit that button and the menu slides back out! And I repeat this process and get frustrated.
So I did all the cache clearing, data clearing stuff for play, play services. I have no download manager. And still this problem.
I did not and will not remove and try to add my google account again because then I might lose access to my contacts. In fact, I haven't even checked if they still sync. If they don't, I suppose I could do that.
Other than that, what can I do?
This is the craziest thing I've ever seen.

Lol hello again sir
Go to www.gooogle.com/contacts
From any web browser, are your contacts in place?
Guessing you haven't but reboot your phone, cycle your WiFi and see if anything prompts you to sign in or sync.
Then go to settings/ accounts / Google and make sure it's allowed and syncing, check both sync and Google
Re-open Google play and see if it's working.
Oh and perhaps change WiFi to another or test on mobile data if you don't have a second signal to use.
=) Thanx for your help. I can get contacts in a browser. I rebooted a couple times, did wifi and mobile, and nothing. It syncs everything in the account as well. I just can't use play store. I cleared data and cache on playstore and services. And I can access play from a browser; so I didn't get banned or something. It's specific to this phone, it occurred sometime after the update to the latest firmware. I'm not sure if it's related.

Only thing I can think of would be to wipe all play services, store then reinstall.
This has happened before?
First time.... What is the best way to restore this stuff on the stock ROM w/o factory reset?

So you can usually clear data on all Google services.
But if that doesn't work then boot to recovery and just wipe system, not the whole phone.
This will mean you have to set up your phone again but your storage will remain unaffected. So images, files, music won't be touched
