GenyMotion 4.3 Image fails to launch application

Question

I have updated to Genymotion 2.0 and downloaded/deployed the new 4.3 images (Galaxy Nexus and 10.1 Tablet) upon installing the appropriate GApps package get a devastating error upon launching a development app with the following stack trace making the device restart.

I/Process ( 3117): Sending signal. PID: 3117 SIG: 9

Answer 1

For what I know the last update to Genymotion removed the support for google apps and google-play-service from it's images because of some disagreement with Google, you can read more about it here:

So from now on, you can't run Google Maps API V2 applications and use other features of the google-play-service like the LocationManager you are trying to use.

UPDATE:

As mentioned in the comments you could install the GApps package manually using the following guide:
