Out of nowhere I keep getting force closes of the google play services and google play location service on boot. It also happens at random points when the phone is on. Any ideas on what could cause this? I am rooted
Me too... Stump rooted also. No build prop edits to date. Always been curious myself when it pops up. Im sure its addressed here somewhere.

Try uninstalling updates under settings/apps. Then update through the play store. I had an issue awhile back but I sideloaded Google play services from the android l dump for kicks. I kept getting fcs also and this helped. Give it a shot.

Ok its worth a shot!
I'm having the same problem too. I just switched from a Sony Smartwatch 2 to the LG G watch, and I though it had something to do with the Android Wear apps. I ended up doing a factory reset and Titanium restore, thinking that should solve the problem. Five minutes ago I got the same Google Services message. Prior to the reset, I was getting frequent Google Location Services pop-ups as well.
Wow... this is annoying.
Same, trying to find the previous version of Google services.
Are you guys using google keyboard or stock lg keyboard.
Same error for me since using Google keyboard, but I can live with that
please hit thanks if i helped in any way. send from my g3 d852 beast
I'm running SwiftKey. For now, I've just disabled notifications for Google Play Services.
I guess my issue was my own fault. I had the location notification hider installed with xposed. I uninstalled it and it seems to be fine now. It was just weird I've had it installed for weeks and it all of a sudden started screwing up.

So I sideloaded the Play APK from Android Police, but after putting in my Google account information, it tells me "Couldn't sign in: There was a problem communicating with Google servers. Try again later". I have internet connection, and have tried waiting a couple hours. Google and Youtube work fine. This is very frustrating to me since I can't do much without play apps...
Same issue with Play Store

Imperium Operative ROM was discontinued/put on hold a while back. Only the Patch/MOD are current and actively developed right now.

I'm going to double check it by flashing all three of my TS's to stock but as recent as 1AM today I've not had and play store install issues. It may be a play store server side issue which I've seen more than once. Even my all my Nexus devices have done this from time to time.

Thank you. I wanted to let you know I've flashed the latest update that you posted today (as an aside, the version still reports its the 02/21/2014). Anyway, still no play store. Same errors. OK with Nexus 7/ 4/Memo Pad(s). Do you think it could have something to do with the two-step verification process I've initiated with my Google account? Maybe the TS doesn't work well with that? Should I try to flash back to stock. Try again?

It was the Google two-step verification process. It's not bothered any of my other devices, but the TS didn't agree with it. As soon as I disabled it, Play Store is up and active. Thank you for your help and quick responses Lokifish Marz. Have a great evening.
Thanks! I removed 2-step verification, and then did a factory reset since there appears to be no other way to remove an account from the TrueSmart. When I redid everything, Play worked.
Randomly today, I keep getting persistent popups that say Google Play services has stopped and another one involving com.google something about location I believe.
I have not touched my phone hardly at all today, haven't installed anything or changed any settings etc. Have tried rebooting phone, to no avail. Any help? Thanks
I think there was a update to google play services taking it to version 5 in the past day or two, maybe you got a dodgy update or it is conflicting with another app. Maybe try clearing data for play services then reboot the phone.
Thanks for the reply. Tried that to no avail. This is maddening.

Same thing happens to me as well, i can't figure out the cause. the other one is com.google.something.location.service
I am also getting this randomly since the latest Play services update 2-3 days back, mostly for the Dash app.
I been having Google+ force close even if cache and data clear
Having exact same problems. It also removes your Gmail account in back up and reset in settings. Only thing I did to make it stop was uninstall the update and reboot and won't update until google fixs the problem, idiots! I don't understand why they haven't pulled the update or updated the update by now.
Mine pops up every 2-3 seconds. I can't even make calls or text without wanting to throw my Z2 into the East River. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
Yesterday my phone starting giving me a google play services has stopped pop up. Seems to happen when I change from WiFi to cell network or vice versa. Its not a one time pop up either....it happens 5 to 6 times in a row. Occasionally need a reboot to make it stop....and after the reboot it still comes up once or twice

Mine started that yesterday too, but only when i restart the phone. A symbol also popped up on the notification bar that looked like a sim card with a question mark in it. Had to do a battery pull to make that go away.
im on sprint, and mine did the same thing yesterday evening. i get 2-3 pop ups immediately after reboot and then another 2-3 within 2 minutes of the reboot.
Yup me too. Says location services has stopped a few times then Google play services has stopped a few times. Happened randomly yesterday and the syncing icon was stuck in the status bar. The error messages pop up a few times after reboot as well but then don't see them again. Just a minute ago had the phone start locking up real bad and was lagging like crazy. Rebooted and it started up and after about 20 seconds it rebooted again on it's own. Back to normal for now *knock on wood* but that's the first "problem" I've had with this phone. Think Google pushed an update that our G3's do not like.
I was thinking the same thing.... Google play services must have had an update pushed out and it's not playing nice for us. I didn't read anything about a play update though.

I've had the SIM with question mark since day 1. Think it's because not on Verizon. My Google play store stopped working until I restored. This happened about a week ago though.

Add me to the list. Both Google Play Services and Google Location Services are going screwy ever since about 10am PST.
It's starting to become unusable. I'm ready to go back to my Loki'd S4 and give this thing a factory reset. It's popped up 3 times just typing this message..... 4 now

I had location consent module for x posed and Google play store fixes module. I deleted both and so far no more pop ups.

Same here. Deleted the location consent module from xposed and all was good.

Apparently there was an update to Google Play Services from what I've been reading on Nexus forums and it hasn't played nice with certain apps...

That worked for me. I deleted that location concent module and haven't had a notification since.
Ever since the play services update on the 23rd, and including with all of the more recent updates, I continuously get play services has stopped errors and can not use google location services at all. These issues continue even after several factory wipes. After each wipe, the issue returns as soon as play services is updated and if for any reason the phone restarts, it gets stuck in a bootloop. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Any tips that might help?

Have you used the LG Flash Tool to reflash the .TOT? If not I would try that. If there was some kind of system change you made the factory reset would only do so much. Such as when my build.prop got borked before it was known the build.prop for the G3 was too big to open on (most) mobile text editors a factory reset didn't help me and had to use the flash tool. Factory reset is the equivalent of wiping data and cache so if the error messages persist, and especially if your bootlooping, try the flash tool and .TOT.
I have actually been trying to use the flash tool to do just that, but can not seem to get the phone to go into download mode. Is it possible that only the cable that came with the phone will work for that? I have been trying using one that came with my old d2vzw.

I've actually had similar problems since Play Services updated, yesterday no matter what I tried to do I couldn't get the Play Store to connect. . and I tried all sorts of things trust me.
Only thing that fixed it for me was doing a factory reset, which obviously Sux but that's what did it. Hopefully you get it going!

Ok, so I think I've figured this out.
I'm on a T-Mobile note 3 running darthstalker 7,
I started getting this pop up about a week or 2 ago. Initially it would only happen upon enabling or disabling GPS.
Once I started trouble shooting it started happening much more frequently, and began to include a pop-up about location services.
I used titanium to roll back to a previous version of google play services and it seemed to stop. Then it auto updated and here come the pop ups.
I took a previous poster's advice and disabled the location confirmation module in xposed.
Then I restored an older version of google play services from titanium back up.
I let it auto update, upon update I got a notification [with the triangle exclamation point icon] about the service needing my permission.
Once I clicked the notification, yet another pop-up, but this one was different. It was Google play services asking for permission to allow apps access to my location. The interesting bit is that there was a check box for "do not ask me this again" which I checked.
Since I did this, no more force closes on Google play services or location.
Hoping someone else can confirm this works for them.
Hope this helps, hit thanks of it does.

Try clearing the data for the Play Store app in Application Manager.
Nice colors, by the way. I like the action bar icons/battery. I've done something similar before.
Thanks !! I've tried that, cleared all app date etc.. It didn't work. I'm perplexed lol
What ROM are you using?
JasmineROM 4.0 with Skydragons .03.02 kernel some xposed tweaks nothing major! I just don't wanna reflash I got this one setup so nicely

I'm not sure what else to suggest. You could try removing your Google account from the phone and re-adding it.
Ahhh great minds, yeah I did that too ! Thanks a lot for the suggestions I appreciate it I'll keep playing around with it see if I can fix this bug if it is one
Hello everyone. Since yesterday my phone has been polling my location constantly. I didn't find any issues with security (Malwarebytes scan), I'm not using any weird app not from the Play Store, I didn't change any setting and the privacy setting is not showing like any app is asking for location constantly. Are you experiencing anything like this? How would you go about fixing this issue? Thanks.
FIX: Google Play Services 22.45.17 solves the issue. If you didn't get the update you can get it on APKMirror at your own risk.
Same issue here! I guess we should wait for a Google Play services update

I've been digging a bit more and looks like it's not due to Google Play Services. I checked and it polled the location data in the background correctly without triggering the icon in the status bar. There's something else, maybe proprietary to Motorola, that's freaking out and using location all the time.
I don't see the battery being affected though. Did you?

No effect on the battery either here. When did you start seeing this issue? For me it was yesterday.
Last week, then it stopped after disabling and re-enabling all locations setting. Yesterday it happens again
The only new app i installed before it happening was the Google health connect

For me, as of today, it didn't stop disabling and re-enabling the location access. It stopped for a while, but started back showing the location icon after a while. No amount of reboots and checks solved anything.
Have you joined the beta on Google app, Google play services etc? The only thing I didn't try is to unroll from all beta versions

I'm not on the beta Google Play Services app and didn't want to roll back because I think it's gonna mess up something for sure! Also, from what I can see, if you disable and enable the location service and check after a short while the authorizations for the Google Play Services you'll see that it uses location data briefly and correctly in the background without any issues. I think that's not the culprit.

No good news unfortunately. I keep reading online about people having the same issue and nobody knows how to fix it. It's getting ridicolous at this point, really. Someone should get a hold of Google. I tried sending an email through the Play Store, but I got an email back saying that they don't monitor that email address anymore and got sent back to the useless FAQ page.
@dielle27 @Sultan M I got suggested to try to boot the phone in safe mode but it happened again. Wanna try that and let me know?

Got the update too but didn't install it because another user with an Edge 20 is on the same patch and they can't make the icon disappear even for just an hour at the time. On their phone it's on ALL the time, no matter what. So I'm holding off the update.
If i disable and then enable again the location setting, the icon disappears for a while, so for me nothing changed with the update

I've seen that on other forums for other phones they suggested a rollback of the Play Services. I tried but it didn't work. Can you try aswell and let me know if it's a solution for you? Thanks!
It didn't work as well. At least battery life isn't affected, but it's pretty annoying as well to not have a resolution after an official update
