Google Play Game Services LibGDX Project Setup with latest BaseGameUtils

Question

It's my first post but I couldn't solve this one on my own or with Google searches. Any insight will be seriously considered and so very appreciated.

I am working with the LibGDX framework and My goal is to have working Achievements & Leaderboards via Google Play Game Services and Ads via AdMob.

I was able to set up functioning Achievements / Leaderboards using Theinvader360's Google Play Game Services Tutorial.

AdMob's early steps calling for a manifest entry gave an error of @integer not being available. The most current version of "google-play-services_lib" fixed this, but revealed that three Classes in BaseGameUtils were depreciated. I then grabbed the latest version of BaseGameUtils Library from the main source. (I'd include more links but I don't have high enough reputation)

What's funny with the current version was the structure was different than the last. I improvised and changed the "main" folder's title to "BaseGameUtils" before importing into Eclipse. I then moved the three classes from their "java" folder into "src". This brought up a FragmentActivity error so I created a "libs" folder and dropped in android-support-v4.jar to alleviate this.

Currently:
-BaseGameUtils has "Is Library" checked and "google-play-services_lib" Added as Reference.
-google-play-services_lib has "Is Library" checked.
-The android game project is Referencing these two Libraries.

I turned to MainActivity to convert things to up-to-date way using this source:
https://developers.google.com/games/services/android/init
and scrolling down to "Using GameHelper without BaseGameActivity"

As is, the application skips it's splash screen and shows a glimpse of the start screen before crashing. Here's the log:

My MainActivity code:

public class MainActivity extends AndroidApplication implements GameHelperListener, ActionResolver  {

private static final int REQUEST_LEADERBOARD = 0;
private GameHelper gameHelper;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    gameHelper = new GameHelper(this, GameHelper.CLIENT_ALL);

    AndroidApplicationConfiguration cfg = new AndroidApplicationConfiguration();
    cfg.useAccelerometer = false;
    cfg.useCompass = false;
    initialize(new CaveBat(this), cfg);

    gameHelper.enableDebugLog(true);

    GameHelperListener listener = new GameHelper.GameHelperListener() {
        @Override
        public void onSignInSucceeded() {
            // handle sign-in succeess
        }
        @Override
        public void onSignInFailed() {
            // handle sign-in failure (e.g. show Sign In button)
        }
    };
    gameHelper.setup(listener);
}

@Override
public void onStart(){
    super.onStart();
    gameHelper.onStart(this);
}

@Override
public void onStop(){
    super.onStop();
    gameHelper.onStop();
}

@Override
public void onActivityResult(int request, int response, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(request, response, data);
    gameHelper.onActivityResult(request, response, data);
}

@Override
public boolean getSignedInGPGS() {
    return gameHelper.isSignedIn();
}

@Override
public void loginGPGS() {
    try {
        runOnUiThread(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                gameHelper.beginUserInitiatedSignIn();
            }
        });
    } catch (final Exception ex) {
    }
}

@Override
public void submitScoreGPGS_Classic(int score) {
}

@Override
public void unlockAchievementGPGS(String achievementId) {
}

@Override
public void getLeaderboardGPGS_Classic() {
    startActivityForResult(Games.Leaderboards.getLeaderboardIntent(
    gameHelper.getApiClient(), "CgkIio298M4HEAIQAA"), REQUEST_LEADERBOARD);
}

@Override
public void getAchievementsGPGS() {
}

@Override
public void onSignInFailed() {
}

@Override
public void onSignInSucceeded() {
}

}

Possibly a build path or lifecycle issue? Also, when commenting out onStart(), onStop(), onActivityResult() my project runs perfectly fine until I hit the Leaderboard button, crashing again. Anything helps!

It seems it is releated to google play service. You should add meta-data at tag in your manifest.

<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.games.APP_ID"
    android:value="@string/app_id" />
