Crashing with Google Play Services 8.1.0

[davidvavra]

GPS 8.1.0 unfortunately did a breaking change and all libraries must update. Details:

Same issue

Just add this lib in your project not via Maven and update gradle by yourself)

Yes this is going to work @antoxa2584x

Also feel free to fork and PR, @Mariuxtheone is kind of busy

Tested sample app with this PR and it worked fine.

If you work with gms 8.3 or 8.4 it bombs with this error:
The method 'void com.google.android.gms.common.api.GoogleApiClient.connect()' was expected to be of type interface but instead was found to be of type virtual

The GoogleApiClient changed from interface to class since version 8.1.0 so you must update this library or it is totally useless like this.

Since this repository clearly has been abandoned - which is a shame, because the fix is so easy, as per @matheusjardimb - you can as well take the TeleportService and TeleportClient and integrate them directly into your project and remove the references to this repo. Works fine.

Thanks @Surfcheck I did already and published on Maven the fix a while ago.
