If I activate geolocation I have "Google Play Service has stopped"-loop - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As I reported in the title, as soon as I activate gps I have "Google Play Service has stopped"-loop that terminates when I disable gps.
I have OPO with 4.4.4 and stock rom. Thanks in advance.

I updated to 5.1.1 but the problem is still there. Can anyone help me please?

Google Now failed to establish

Hi Everyone,
I'm facing this issue of "Network Error. Please check your network connections" whenever I try to set up my 'Google Now'. I have googled everywhere and searched the forum and I couldn't find anything. If I have missed it, please direct me to the correct place...
I'm using a TF700T:
Android Version 4.1.1
Kernel Version 3.1.10
Build Number: JRO03C.WW_epad-10.4.4.20-20121026
Please let me know if I should provide more information.
EDIT: It might be a location issue because google play does not allow me to install NFS Most Wanted despite me being in Australia.
I am in Sydney and don't have any issues connecting to Google Now.
Resolved
I have somehow managed to fix the issue:
I have 5 google accounts for different purposes and 1 of them is not syncing because of an issue, the moment I removed that account from the tablet. Viola! Google Now worked!

Play services crash. illegal argument exception wakelock not active

Few days ago, around the 15th of october I started having every few seconds crashes of the google play services.
The error is java.lang.illegalArgumentException wakelock not active.
The frequency of the error makes the phone unusuable.
Initially I though the problem was because I was on older stock release (KTU84Q). Due to a problem I had with my car bluetooth with newer versions I choosed to keep 4.4.4 stock.
So I let the phone make all the incremental updates (OTA) up to the last one (5.1.1 LMY48B).
Unfortunatelly the problem with play services did not go away. So I did a full wipe and went through the initial install procedure. A few minutes latter, still while setting up the phone the crash came back. Except the ROM apps at this point there are no other apps installed. I notice the crashes happened when play services was updated right after I set up my google account.
The play services version that crashes is 8.2.99. I downgraded to 8.2.98 and I still have the crashes. So I went down to 8.1.15 and no more crashes.
The problem is that after a while the phone updates to 8.2.99.
So the questions are:
Is it only me that has this problem?
How do I fix this?
In any case how do I prevent the update of the playservices?
After little search I found the solution.
I had to enable privacy guard and then enable KEEP AWAKE of Google Play Services.

google play not updating while roaming

Hi guys I'm currently traveling outside the US and for some reason my google play stop working, can't update or install any app, gplay says downloading but nothing happens. I have a pretty decent roaming internet connection and I'm able to search apps and access all my other google apps but is just gplay stuck with the downloading message.
I tried restarting the phone and switching to wifi but still issue persist anyone experienced the same behavior or with any ideas of why is this happening?
Its normal, because its problem of all phones running android 7.0 i dunno if they fix it with google monthly security patch but as i said its known problem.
Is it? Didn't know that but I'd say it is a weird bug to find at this stage
Which country are you currently traveling in? As we know, Google Play Store is not available in several countries.

Location history not available !

Hello!
Today I realised that Location History (and, hence, Location Sharing) is not available to me... Googling the issue I see that this issue has been bothering many users of Chinese phones, but with no clear solution.
Of course location history was working fine since the day I got the phone, and I didn't change anything like, say, flashing a new ROM. I'm on OB25, btw.
Anyone else facing the same issue?
Same for me. Was working fine for one years and a recent research showed that it stopped working...
Had to remove my Google account, now it's working again. However, judging from others posting in various sites, I don't know for how long...

I have the same issue on Vivo Iqoo Pro. the location history was working initially, and stopped working after the google play service automatically upgraded. What i am doing is uninstall the google play service and reinstall the original play service from the Vivo app market almost every the other day when google play service upgraded to the newest version.
I don't know how to stop the google play service automatic updating... maybe i have to root the cell phone and then there is a way to stop the play service updating...
That's a valid question...
As for me, in the end I had enough and just cleanly flashed my ROM. For some reason, the problem did not appear again!
