whenever I try to add a calendar event using a voice command in Google Now, it will get to the final confirmation screen and then error out.
This was an issue with 5.0.0, and remains an issue after I updated to 5.0.1 via OTA. Unfortunately I never tried to add calendar events with voice commands back in KitKat, so I don't know if it was a problem in 4.4.
I've tried many times and get the same result each time, regardless of whether I am on WiFi or LTE.
Google Now works fine in every other way. For example, if I use a voice command to start navigating to a specific address, there are no issues with that.
Here's what happens after I say the command. Everything looks fine at this point: http://imgur.com/8wpP5oc
However, as soon as I press the check mark in the bottom right corner, this happens: http://imgur.com/pOJkufp
Any ideas on a fix? Thanks!
Are you blocking/disabling anything regarding Google Play Services/Google Search?

Can you elaborate? I just recently upgraded to 5.0.1, so most of my settings are at defaults. I don't think I've gone in and specifically uninstalled/blocked anything related to Google search yet.

Try clearing the data of Google Search/Google Play Services and maybe try removing and readding your Google Account.
If that doesn't work then make a backup then reflash factory images.
I finally got around to completely re-flashing my phone via fastboot. I am now on a completely clean install of Android 5.0.1. I've even gone back to stock keyboard and launcher in case Nova or Swiftkey was causing an issue.
However, still no luck. Getting the exact same error as before when trying to add a calendar event via Google Now voice command.
Any ideas?
[Android 5.1] Hangout constantly crashes on launch. + "Google Apps has stopped"
I upgraded to 5.1 on Monday by flashing the factory image. After the first boot and flashing root/recovery etc, I checked everything is running smooth and rebooted the device once more. Ever since then, Google Hangout crashes every time I try to open it; with this error -
Unfortunately, Hangouts has stopped.

I cleaned its cache, cleared data, uninstalled updates, updated from play store.
I cleaned all system cache from Settings > Device > Storage.
I cleaned Dalvik-cache and cache partition by going to recovry.
Nothing seems to fix it. It still crashes with the same error. From time to time, I'm also getting this error -
Unfortunately, Google Apps has stopped.

But all other Google apps are working fine. Anyone else having this issue?
Hangout - 3.0.87531466
Play Services - 7.0.93 (1778921-438)
===============================================
UPDATE -
POSSIBLE CAUSE AND SOLUTION
After spending 2 entire days on it and flashing the 5.1 factory images 3 times, I found out that it was being caused by LBE Security Master's Active Defense mode. This is like a live AppOps. It grants/denies permissions to apps at run time. Even though I had given full permission to Hangout, it was still crashing for unknown reasons. But after I disabled the active defense mode and rebooted the device, everything is running fine now.
So, if you are using any permission control app like LBE or AppOps, try disabling that and reboot your device. Yes, reboot is necessary. Just disabling doesn't fix it.

I had that version after flashing the 5.1 factory image. I guess Google pushed that to my device. It's not sideloaded.

That is strange. I have the same version of Hangouts, but my updated version of Play Services is 6.7.76 (1745988-438).

I am having the same issue with hangouts. I've taken the same steps to try to fix it.
As part of troubleshooting, I momentarily disabled hangoouts via app settings, then I started to see the "Google App" error. After re-enabling I didn't see this error anymore.
I have not tried removing hangouts completely, as it seems this would break other things.
Any possible solutions?
EDIT: The Google App error is actually persisting.
My issue is hangouts keeps getting killed by the Low memory killer even though I have 1gb free ram.
I did some monitoring, hangouts Noe has to run its own process that I've never seen before and after a minute it caches itself, and I guess the cache is dumped later since I haven't opened hangouts in 5 minutes, I have to restart the app every time I need to use it. I also don't receive any messages during that time because the app has been killed. Any ideas?

Actually I'm using LBE as well and I suspected that it could have been the cause, and as you experienced, I removed all restrictions from the hangouts app and the problem still persisted.
My theory now is that a restriction that we've set on another app (or apps) is indirectly causing this issue with hangouts.
Does anyone know specifically which system apps could be connected to the functionality of Hangouts?
UPDATE: I've disabled restrictions on Youtube, Calendar, and Drive. This appears to have solved the problem.
Hangouts is working normally thus far and I haven't seen any error messages. Will update if things change.
I have a feeling that it's Drive.
What s
Is LBE? I'm stock phone sideloafed 5.1 and I have actually disabled hangout prior to upgrade now getting this error

Google play services "keep awake" disabled could cause it
I let all my apps keep awake in app ops and so on, but still have an issue with hangouts. It gets killed by system 5-10 minutes of not using it even if I leave it in background
2nd Update:
The problem is persisting again... my hypothesis has been disproved.
Any other suggestions or discoveries would be appreciated. I'm trying to find a way to fix Hangouts while keeping privacy settings in place as much as possible...
If XPrivacy was working for Android 5.0+ this issue would disappear.
I re enabled hangouts and updated it and not had the issue since
Play Service 7.0.96 from http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/
Hangouts (+LBE) works fine by 5.1
Nexus 5 32GB, Android 5.01
Hangouts crashes occasionally for me also, and I don't have LBE or anything. I sideloaded 5.1 via nrt but my play services still says 6.7.76. Is that going to be a problem? Won't it just update itself eventually? Does the image not contain play services?
(I have the N6 but I thought the issue would still be relevant)
I had a similar issue, so I rolled back hangouts to 2.5x and it's working fine now, YMMV. of course this may not be a viable solution to you but a working older version is better than a non-usable latest version.
Cheers!
Well, the only thing I can think of, in my circumstances, is that I had hangouts disabled when I updated to 5.1 (I don't use it). So yesterday I enabled it, cleared data, and disabled it again, and so far no crash. Maybe something got changed in the update and it didn't like the fact hangouts was disabled. Again, your issue may vary.

The new play services pretty much renders your phone useless due to nonstop update wake lock, (read more on the cataclysm ROM thread, like last 30 pages). The only way to fix the wake lock so far is to flash the cataclysm ROM patch (idk if it will work with stock ROM but it should) and it blocks the wake lock.
See attached picture below, that's how bad the new google play services is.
As for hangouts I got UKM and lowered the low memory killer to a minimum and disabled laptop mode (I'm using elementalX) and hangouts works just fine for me now.

Sounds like I should stick with what I've got then! Though having said that I think gp will update automatically when it's released, being a core system component?

I may have stopped "google framwork services" last week, but I do not think this is related.
Basically, my gmail app no longer gets push notifications or syncs automatically.
I have android 5.0.1. nexus 5 and the latest gmail app versions. I have checked all settings in the app, and made sure that all my sync settings are enabled. I can see that the last sync of gmail was over 30 minutes ago, yet I've sent emails to my gmail account since then and they appear on the web version.
The app won;t show new emails until I manually refresh within the app.
Please help. I googled a bit and saw that some people with a similar issue dod a "factory reset" to solve. that seems a bit extreme. Is there any other way around this.
I've done all the usual things, cleared data in gmail app and forced stop and restarted phone.
I even removed my google account and readded it. nothing worked.

If you cleared data of Google Services Framework, it resets your GCM push id. Apps usually request this id the first time they are opened, and will usually re-request it every few weeks/months. Clear data of gmail and Play Services, then remove and re-add your Google Account.
thank you Elluel.
I'll try that now. (I've also just tried a wipe of the system cache form the recovery menu, this didn't help.
That seems to have MUCH improved things. Mails are coming in within a minute now, whereas before it would not sync for hours even with all settings set to ON.
Thanks... I'll see how it goes.

I did this same thing and couldn't get it figured out this worked right away!
Recently I have started getting an error saying Google Play Services has stopped, I have tried clearing the cache of both play services and the play store with no luck.
I have also tried clearing data, rolling back to the previous version & even as a last resort I did factory reset. Nothing seems to be working, now I'm thinking it may be related to another app?

Try deleting hosts file from system/etc and fixing it with ad away after that.

thanks for the reply. just had a look at that file. Need root to delete though, maybe thats something to look at next..
Hey,
Did you manage to get this fixed? I've got the same versions as you and I'm having the same issue, its gradually getting worse. Message has gone from being occasional to once every few seconds. It's driving me nuts. :silly:
I've tried the normal tips suggested for other phones (wipe cache, un-install updates, shout at it).
Currently looking at one of the update files from needrom incase its an issue with 4.4.2. Failing that will try rooting and failing that i guess its a factory reset and fingers crossed unless anyone has a brain wave.
I assumed it was Play Services itself, which you can't delete to roll back (and test) but it seems to be an app, which I'd uninstall if I knew which one.
I saw someone else with a 6+ at an event recently who had the exact same version of Google Play services and he's not had the problem once. I get it all the time.
Honor is aware of it, although it's been a few weeks now.
I just went thru same problem, different device, but i went thru two hours of hell, until i finally figured it out..... Similarly i went thru same problem last week on my rooted Lenovo ideapad... And today i couldn't remember what the f¥¢k i did to fix it! Finally, with the error "unfortunately the process gapps has stopped" every two seconds and constant notification about Google play service needing update.... But damn device freezing cause button needs hit ok.... Finally i went and managed to between error message ; get into settings - application mgr - all - Google play services.... Clear cache data manage data force stop.... Them Playstore wipe cache +data, uninstall update....
Then back to main settings page, accounts - Google - uninstall all accts. Reboot....
Then i tried (soon as booted) to go play but it was stuck on weird error - no service (?? Was on wifi - wtf??) so Google search and said i need update and that took me to Google account set up... Reinstall account and you get the Google accept play messages and backup /restore checkbox.... After that all was good to go.... Yeehaw!! * Yipee!!!
Sure that there is probably a beer way to do it but i was cussing up a storm and ready to smash it into the wall! Thankfully i was patient and figured out a solution
I had the same problem twice, and i solve it by :
Uninstall the update of play service in app manager. (Clear cache mayby)
Reboot.
Let playstore reinstall the update.
That's all.
No need to delete Google acount.

I experienced same issue on my Honor 6 plus and it drove me mad. 100 times per day the same message popped up in different situations but I could not see any correlation between the appearance of the message and any specific activity on the phone. I only noticed that the message appeared more often when I used any map application like Google Maps or Nokia Here. I tried to fix it with all above mentioned solutions, deactivated most of the Play apps, cleared the app cash of play services and all GApps, cleared the system cash from stock recovery and nothing helped for more than 10 min. Finally I deactivated Google Now (via Google Settings) and suddenly the popping up of this message stopped. No single error message re-appeared since that (48 hours ago). So in my case the issue seems to be solved for now and finally I'm fully happy with the phone.
