Godot game crashes when using this module and calling gpgs.init(get_instance_ID())

[bmercury]

I like this module, feels so clean and organised. It has so many features I would LOVE to use, because there are not many google play game services modules for Godot.
I followed instructions, compiled, edited projects config file and set up my game in the online console.
My apps name is "squane"
I have this code in the _ready():

if Globals.has_singleton("GodotGooglePlayGameServices"):
       gpgs = Globals.get_singleton("GodotGooglePlayGameServices")
       gpgs.init(get_instance_ID())

But the app opens, and then it crashes.
I used Android_sdk/tools Monitor to check why it crashed and I pasted the logs in here:
https://pastebin.com/CakwcV2w
The last logs before it crashes are at the bottom of the file.

I hope you can help, because I have no other hopes...

Thanks for your comments :)
Could you give me a minimal code for make some test? on an overview I see that there are a problem with the libraries of Android (Drive, Games, ...) so I would like to make some test on my computer.
I only need the initialization until this method is called.
I think something is missing.

Sure, I will use pastebin again 👍
I have a scene "data.tscn" in which I have one base node to which I have a script attached.
This is scene is in a singleton, so it gets loaded before others(I guess)
I will give you the _main() function of this singleton scene(This is the function calling gpgs.init() )

If you need more code, feel free to ask :)

I think here could be the same issue as #2 .

¿Did you follow the instructions on the godot page? http://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/development/compiling/compiling_for_android.html#requirements
Under the Requirements:

Android SDK version 23.0.3 [Note: Please install all Tools and Extras of sdk manager]
Android build tools version 19.1
Android NDK r13 or later
I think Android build tools version 19.1 have the missing library.

Run again your Android SDK Manager and be sure to install it.

Look when you can and told me.
I will try to be more quick with the answer.

[bmercury]

This is interesting.
Yes, I followed the instructions, everything you listed is installed.

I tried again, recompiled and used your demo project. It still crashes after init function is called.

Let's see the file /godot/platform/android/build.gradle.template
Here is one used in my games:

apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

Compare with yours and tell me if you see any difference.

[bmercury]

Just checked. It differs in some places. There isn't apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' in mine at the bottom.
And there isn't classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.0.0' in mine at the top under dependencies.

Do I change it to be like yours?
