Can't use Location with latest google play services 7.5.0

My problem:

I am using the new instruction here https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/android/start to implement my own Android GCM app.

And, the problems I have with the piece of code that handles location tracking, it did work before, but now all the associated imports "don't exist". For example: (error: package com.google.android.gms.location does not exist)

import com.google.android.gms.location.LocationListener;
import com.google.android.gms.location.LocationRequest;
import com.google.android.gms.location.LocationServices;

All I have done:

  • Add classpath 'com.google.gms: google-services: 1.3.0-beta1' to the top level assembly file.
  • Add compilation 'com.google.android.gms: play-services: 7.5. + 'to my Gradle app.

What i tried

  • Try using com.google.android.gms: play-services: 7.3.0 instead and it works for location, but I'm not sure if GCM will work since I haven't finished it yet.

  • Try using com.google.android.gms: play-services: 7.5.0. This seems strong when the newest is 7.5.0, so 7.5. + Same since ~ 7.5.0. But he just tried and failed.

So, have you encountered this before? and how to solve please?

This question has been open for a long time. To be honest, I tried to give a better answer, but I can't. I have to switch to using an older version at a time given the time limit. And now, back to it, and it works correctly.

If you set the classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:1.3.0-beta1'

as a dependency in the top level build
aplied plugin apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

to build the app, root is

added compile "com.google.android.gms:play-services:7.5.+"

as a dependency on the build of the app, and after sync you will see a message error instal support reposotory

, just click on it and install the repository from the wizard
