Android GoogleAnalytics getInstance

Answer 1

GoogleAnalytics.getInstance() deadlocks while trying to parse the xml tracker definition.

The issue is fixed in Google Play Services 7.0 that was released March 19, 2015. Upgrading to 7.0 will fix the deadlock. http://developer.android.com/google/play-services/index.html

If you must use Play Services 6.5, you can workaround the deadlock by initializing the tracker from code instead of xml resource:

public static final String TRACKER_ID="UA-xxx";
...
mTracker = analytics.newTracker(TRACKER_ID);
// Configure mTracker using the tracker provided methods
