PlaceAutocompleteFragment not working on Android 5.0 & Up

Question

I want to use PlaceAutocompleteFragment in My Application.

I successfully Implemented PlaceAutocompleteFragment and Its working fine.(In Samsung S4 and HTC Desire).

But When I checked this functionality in Android 5.0 (Mi4i) and Android 5.1.1 (Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1) and Android 6.0 (Moto G Turbo) App is crashed....

I am using below code in Fragment which is implement PlaceSelectionListener.

PlaceAutocompleteFragment autocompleteFragment = (PlaceAutocompleteFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.autocomplete_fragment); autocompleteFragment.setOnPlaceSelectedListener(this); @Override public void onPlaceSelected(Place place) { Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Place selection : " + place.getAddress(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); } /** * Callback invoked when PlaceAutocompleteFragment encounters an error. */ @Override public void onError(Status status) { Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Place selection failed: " + status.getStatusMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); }

In XML layout file.

<fragment android:id="@+id/autocomplete_fragment" android:name="com.google.android.gms.location.places.ui.PlaceAutocompleteFragment" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

logcat

Added Below Dependencies in Gradle File.

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.3.0' compile 'com.android.support:design:23.3.0' compile 'com.makeramen:roundedimageview:2.2.1' compile "com.android.support:cardview-v7:23.1.1" compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:9.0.1' compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:9.0.1'

did you find a solution? I have the same problem when updating from play-services-location:8.x to 9.x — Markus

From your stack trace, it looks like you're using the Autocomplete fragment nested inside another fragment (FragmentSearchPlace). Maybe using getChildFragmentManager() instead of getFragmentManager() would work.

Call requires API level 17 (current min is 15): android.app.Fragment#getChildFragmentManager. But my min sdk is 15. And I want to give support sdk 15 and Up.

Hey thanks for pointing out for getChildFragmentManager(). Its working fine if I change API level. But I want API level 15. Is there any way to do this?

You don't add a fragment into other fragment by the property "name" in your Layout. You must use:

autocompleteFragment = new SupportPlaceAutocompleteFragment(); FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction(); transaction.replace(R.id.fragme_autocomplete_destino,autocompleteFragment); transaction.commit();
