Android Emulator: This app won't run without Google Play services

Since Android 4.2.2 it's possible to run Google Services on the Android Emulator. I'm currently making an Android app and made a test project to see if I can get Google+ sign-in and sign-out to work.

I've followed the following tutorial: http://www.androidhive.info/2014/02/android-login-with-google-plus-account-1/

With extra info used from the following tutorials/sites:

  • https://developers.google.com/+/mobile/android/getting-started
  • https://developers.google.com/+/mobile/android/sign-in
  • http://developer.android.com/google/play-services/setup.html#Setup

This generated the following code:

The other steps I did were:

At https://console.developers.google.com/project I've created a project with:

Google+ API on:

Google+ API on

And a Client ID created with the correct SHA1 and exact same namespace as the project:

At Eclipse:

I've installed the google-play-services library:

Google-play services installed

And added it to the project:

I've also created an Emulator with version 4.4.2:

But when I run the app I get the following error, and this error keeps popping up when I click on the button:

Anyone has any idea where it goes wrong? Thanks in advance for the responses.

People also ask

How do I disable Google Play Services on my emulator?

Go to your device's Settings --> Applications --> Tab "All" --> Google Play services and press the Disable button. It may pop up a dialog asking for a confirmation, in which case just answer OK. I have Android 4.0.

Ok, after trying some things it turned out I had one last option not correctly checked, which wasn't mentioned anywhere in the tutorial(s)..

Instead of Android 4.4.2 as Project Build Target & Emulator Target, I've selected Google APIs 4.4.2. Now I don't get the error of Google Play services anymore.

I do get a NullPointerException though, but at least I can continue.. ;)

EDIT: Fixed the NullPointerException and modified the code in my original post. Everything works as it should now and I hope this post helps other people with the same (or other) errors using google play services sign-in using an Android Emulator.

Try using the Goole APIs API level 19 as emulator target instead of normal API level 19.
