Em, if you use Android Studio, plz change the googleplayservices lib to gradle version.

  1. remove lib_gps with settings.gradle 
//include ':lib_gps'
//project(':lib_gps').projectDir = new File(settingsDir, '../../../extern/plugins/googleplayservices/googleplayservices/plugin/gps')
  1. remove library reference with proj.android/app/project.properties.
#android.library.reference.1=../../cocos2d/cocos/platform/android/java/libs/gps/
  1. remove gps with cocos2d/cocos/platform/android/libcocos2dx/build.gradle 
dependencies {
    // compile project(':gps')
    implementation fileTree(dir: '../java/libs', include: ['*.jar'])
}
  1. remove gps files
rm cocos2d/cocos/platform/android/java/libs/android-support-v4.jar
rm -fr cocos2d/cocos/platform/android/java/libs/gps

maybe Google has some improve.

Thanks! I will give it a try and get back

#23

Not working with above steps (google play service not found). Since I am removing gps service that comes with SDKbox how do I include the one from Google?

Thanks!

#24

sorry for missing the gradle setting:

add bellow to your proj.android/app/build.gradle

dependencies { compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:12.0.1' }

Thanks,

#25

Thanks @yinjimmy

Any reason why SDKBox ship with it’s own gps instead of using?

dependencies { compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:XX.X.X' }

#27

gps is:

  1. unpack aar and merge google library with https://github.com/darkdukey/Google-Play-Service-Lite . Maybe miss some res or other, I don’t know.
  2. gpg is for eclipse

For Android Studio, is better to use the gradle setting.

#28

I think its now time to support gradle only, as its compulsory.
or any flag while importing plugin to tell eclipse version or gradle.

#29

@yinjimmy does using https://github.com/darkdukey/Google-Play-Service-Lite give smaller apk size vs the gradle version?

#30

No, the repo packs Google Play Services library for eclipse which all SDKBox plugins needs (gpg, admob, iap, etc). So it’s larger than gradle version if you only use AdMob.

BTW:
The latest AdMob gradle version, bugfix.

implementation 'com.android.support:customtabs:27.1.1'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:15.0.1'
#31

I am also using IAP so from your comment I can’t use gradle version?

#32

you can use the gradle version , it’s office from google.

#33

Maybe it’s time to not ship GPS with future SDKBox?
