Google Places Api Android Resultcallback Not Firing

I'm using the Google Places API for Android and I can't seem to get a resultCallback from a PendingResult to fire. Here's my code (essentially identical to the sample code to https

Solution 1:

I had the same issue because I was missing the permission that allows the API to access Google web-based services

<uses-permissionandroid:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES"/>

Solution 2:

For reference, to anyone who visits this question, make sure you do all 3 steps below:

Add your API key to your app manifest

<application>
...
 <meta-dataandroid:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"android:value="YOUR_API_KEY"/></application>

Then include in your manifest as @Alex Baker suggested

<uses-permissionandroid:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES"/>

And also enable Google Places API for Android. Google Places API is a different API and your calls will fail with Places AutoComplete status 9001
