Google Map places autocomplete doesn't work

Question

I wanted to implement AutocompleteFragment (google places) but when I click to search view in a fragment, the fragment disappears (fell down). Google Maps and Places API work and in console I see error:

places.PlacesService.AutocompleteWidget: 100

I can't find what it could mean. I tried to use advices in this and this answers, but it didn't work.

My build.gradle implementations:

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:+'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:16.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:+'
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.4'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:16.0.0'

Permissions and meta-data in Android.manifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="it.mappe.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE" />
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
android:value="there_is_my_api_key"/>

In activity layout I have this XML:

SupportMapFragment mapFragment;
SupportPlaceAutocompleteFragment autocompleteFragment;
GoogleMap mMap;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_map);
}
@Override
protected void onStart() {
    super.onStart();
    createMapView();
}

private void createMapView() {
    getSupportFragmentManager().executePendingTransactions();
    mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.mapView);
    mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);

    autocompleteFragment = (SupportPlaceAutocompleteFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.place_autocomplete_fragment);
    AutocompleteFilter typeFilter = new AutocompleteFilter.Builder()
            .setTypeFilter(AutocompleteFilter.TYPE_FILTER_CITIES)
            .build();

    autocompleteFragment.setFilter(typeFilter);
    autocompleteFragment.setOnPlaceSelectedListener(new PlaceSelectionListener() {

        @Override
        public void onPlaceSelected(com.google.android.gms.location.places.Place place) {
            Log.i(TAG, "Place: " + place.getName());
        }

        @Override
        public void onError(Status status) {
            Log.e(TAG, "An error occurred: " + status + ", status code " + status.getStatusCode());
        }
    });
}

And when I tap searchview in fragment I see this in LogCat:

An error occurred: Status{statusCode=ERROR, resolution=null}, status code 13

And this page give me a beutiful explaination of "status code 13":

The operation failed with no more detailed information.

Thanks for any advice

Answer 1

get google API key from Google console and add in meta data

It would look something like : AIsddsfdsf-FAdsdsf6755fgfgdd3w

Official Guide How to generate Map API Key

<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
android:value="there_is_my_api_key"/>

Answer 2

I got the same error "error 13" ,and I asked that question in stackoverflow .

Although I did not get any answer but I got a comment from the person who works at Google maps. He said its a bug from googles side
Here is the link to my question

I looked for answers try them :

api key library should consist places api for android,web and maps multidex support should be there
