Android Drive GooglePlayServicesUtil﹕ The specifie

Question

I need to use the drive api to create a file with some content from my app, so I followed the "Getting Started" section from Drive api web page.

So I enabled the api on my developer´s console, created an OAuth client id as it says. (Can I use the api if I haven´t paid the 2$5 yet?)

On my settings activity on the onCreate method I'm doing:

 googleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
            .addApi(Drive.API)
            .addScope(Drive.SCOPE_FILE)
            .addConnectionCallbacks(this)
            .addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
            .build();

I'm implementing the methods:

@Override
protected void onStop(){
    getGoogleApiClient().disconnect();
    super.onStop();
}

@Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
    super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
    outState.putBoolean(STATE_RESOLVING_ERROR, resolvingError);
}

@Override
public void onConnectionFailed(ConnectionResult connectionResult) {
    if (resolvingError) {
        // Already attempting to resolve an error.
        return;
    }else if (connectionResult.hasResolution()) {
        try {
            resolvingError = true;
            connectionResult.startResolutionForResult(this,RESOLVE_CONNECTION_REQUEST_CODE);
        } catch (IntentSender.SendIntentException e) {
            getGoogleApiClient().connect();
        }
    } else {
        GooglePlayServicesUtil.getErrorDialog(connectionResult.getErrorCode(), this, 0).show();
        resolvingError = true;
    }
}

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(final int requestCode, final int resultCode, final Intent data) {
    if(requestCode == RESOLVE_CONNECTION_REQUEST_CODE) {
        resolvingError = false;
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            if(!getGoogleApiClient().isConnecting() && !getGoogleApiClient().isConnected()){
                getGoogleApiClient().connect();
            }
        }
    }
}

@Override
public void onConnected(Bundle bundle) {
    Toast.makeText(this, "Success!!! :D :D", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

@Override
public void onConnectionSuspended(int i) {}

Then I call googleApiClient.connect(); on a button onclick method.

I'm getting the select account google drive dialog, select an account and press OK, and I'm getting this error on the connection result:

E/GooglePlayServicesUtil﹕ The specified account could not be signed in.

I searched over the web and cant find the cause of this problem.... maybe I'm doing something wrong on the developers's console... don't know...

UPDATE:

So i delete the project on Google developer´s console and create it again, i also add the Drive Api and enable it, i added a product name on authorization screen, and a new client id with my package name and sha1 id...

also update my manifest,

added to manifest tag:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />   
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.USE_CREDENTIALS" />

to application tag:

<meta-data
       android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
       android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version"/>

to the activity tag where im doing the connection:

<meta-data
       android:name="com.google.android.apps.drive.APP_ID"
       android:value="id=<app id i took this id from developers´console>" />
<action android:name="com.google.android.apps.drive.DRIVE_OPEN" />
<data android:mimeType="application/vnd.google-apps.drive-sdk.<app id>" />

i also building a signed apk using the debug keystore to test my app. (on real device).

after all this the error is still rising...

Answer 1

try to ignore the API connection by doing this:

mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
            .addApiIfAvailable(Drive.API)

I've done in this way and everything seems working. I really don't know why, i suppose that the Driver.API creates some problems, and doing in this way you can use the maps,the markers and all that stuff. I know that is not a good answer because i don't provide you a correct explanation, but anyway, it can help.
