I've been struggling with an issue for days now. I'd recently switched over from Eclipse to Android Studio and after attempting to setup my new project with Google's games services (Leaderboards and achievements), I've noticed that a bunch of classes seem to be missing, while others are perfectly intact. I can login to googles services, I can display ads (another package, but it works perfectly none-the-less), and everything else seems to work fine; except loading intents. It appears as though the SDK manager has forgotten to include the 'com.google.android.gms.games.ui....' package into my sdk. Which means I can't load any intents (can't show leaderboards or achievements. My app doesn't crash, but I do get an error message and a bunch of "could not find class/could not load method" warnings in LogCat.
This is my log as soon as I attempt to call startActivityForResult(....) on the games settings intent for google games service, keep in mind the same errors pop up for leaderboards and achievements:

Keep in mind, I've tried using different sdk targets (17, 21, 23, 24), I've tried mixing and matching different versions of libraries, I've tried adding all services and using only the minimum (games, plus, ads). I've tried everything I could possibly think of but I'm pretty new to gradle and I'm thinking I'm just overlooking something relatively simple. I just can't find a single hint on google using my logs and every variation of words I can think of to find a clue. Any help is appreciated.
Update:
This is where I call my showleaderboards method (in an update thread created for the game loop):
@Override
public boolean onAreaTouched(TouchEvent pSceneTouchEvent, float pTouchAreaLocalX, float pTouchAreaLocalY) {
if (pSceneTouchEvent.isActionDown()) {
GSGoogleServices.getInstance().showLeaderboards();
return true;
}
return super.onAreaTouched(pSceneTouchEvent, pTouchAreaLocalX, pTouchAreaLocalY);
}
And this is the showLeaderboards method itself which starts the new activity which causes the error in logcat:
public void showLeaderboards(){
if(mHelper.isSignedIn()){
mActivity.startActivityForResult(Games.getSettingsIntent(getApiClient()), RC_UNUSED);
} else {
mHelper.beginUserInitiatedSignIn();
}
}
startActivityForResult()? - ianhanniballake
