Google Maps Didn't find class "com.google.android.gms.dynamic.zza"

Question

I've been following this tutorial on implementing google maps android sdk and reached the error mentioned in the title. Crash details available at the end of this question. I've been following a lot of SO threads with no result. So far, some google also proofs nothing.

What failed fixes I've tried:

• disable multidex
• disable "Instant Run"
• change/downgrading the versions fo various combination

Do you guys have clue(s)?

Answer 1

Error inflating class fragment - Unable to instantiate fragment com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment

You should add play-services-maps in your build.gradle section.

implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:$googlePlayVersion" //like-->15.0.0

XML

  <fragment
   class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"

Note

Your onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) section will

mapFragment = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.your_id));
        if (mapFragment != null) {
            mapFragment.getMapAsync(new OnMapReadyCallback() {
                @Override
                public void onMapReady(GoogleMap map) {
                    //loadMap(map);
                }
            });
        } else {
            Toast.makeText(this, "Error - Map Fragment was null!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
