Component used: Activity Version used: 1.2.0-alpha06

The APIs of LifecycleOwner provide us with a callback for when you reach the CREATED state, but for activities that is often after some critical code needs to run.

For example:

Calling setTheme to reset your theme from a branded launch theme
Calling setLocalNightMode()

These all need to be called before super.onCreate() and specifically the inflation of any layout.

It would be nice if there was a composable way to get a callback at that exact time without needing to manually add code to onCreate() (which, will fine for app code, is hard to do as a library).

Hello everyone. Is this bug going to be fixed? I have to install 3rd party app to emulate the location. I really need this feature. Please, fix it.

I have the same issue on Ubuntu 22.04. There is for a quick moment a white square where the map should be, but it is gone in a blink. Not sure if it is related, but when selecting a saved route, a grey overlay with the text "Loading Saved Route.." appears. This remain in place forever until the emulator is closed. (screenshot attached)

Marked as fixed.

Same, blank map, white square at first but then nothing.
Also keeps loading when uploading saved route.

SDK does not change anything, I'll try changing API 33 to another one maybe that's the issue.

Ubuntu 22.04

Same happening to me on Ubuntu 22.04.
I tried several API emulators (23 to 33).
Also tried deleting and creating emulators again.
Also tried rolling back the emulator version a couple of versions prior.
Calling the emulator in the command line instead of in the IDE, does not solve it either.
Nothing worked and I have both problems: map does not appear and when clicking the routes, it gets stuck on Loading.

I also opened an issue in stackoveflow,

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71316605/google-maps-missing-in-extended-controls-android-emulator a while back, but issue is still ongoing this seems like it is a Linux related issue, I can confirm it works on Windows and Mac, this issue needs to get fixed at this point.

For now as a workaround you can you the flatpak version as suggested by @Torben

Same problem on Ubuntu 22.04. It's been broken for 3 months, is there any way to get someone at Google to take notice of this problem? Android Studio cannot be used for location based development on Linux.

Note that the Flatpak version is not an official distribution. Page says "NOTE: This wrapper is not verified by, affiliated with, or supported by Google."

Emulator is https://dl.google.com/android/repository/emulator-linux_x64-8420304.zip

Same problem on the latest Fedora 36 with kernel 5.18! I have to install 2 or more Android Studio on my PC to debug the app with Location. There isn't flatpak of Canary build :(
