[Q] Google Play services and Android modifications

I have problems with Google Play services after I made couple of small

logging source code changes to Android frameworks files. I have tried

with various GApps packages from BasketBuild.



I have rebuilt CyanogenMod12 20150318 build for hammerhead (Nexus5)

and installed also Google Apps. Everything works fine with unmodified

code. Next I tried to study and debug control flow of Android activities and

process creation by adding log output messages to a couple of class

methods in frameworks/base and recompiled again. Basically everything

still works fine but there is a nasty side effect as Google Play

services start to fail. There is a popup message:



"Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped"



Obviously my changes are causing these problems but I do not

understand what is happening and why only Google Play services

seem to fail. Seems like modifications to final Java classes like

ActivityRecord, ActivityManagerService, ActivityStackSupervisor are

triggering these problems. I did not add or modify class function

APIs or data members. I just added couple of log prints and tests for

intents. These problems are already present during system setup.

I have to delay network configuration as otherwise this Google Play

error is causing the whole configuration phase to stuck.



Attached logcat log contains many suspicous messages:



1. Two jar files do not exist or contain no resources



The jar files actually are in /system/framework directory but for some

reason the files cannot be used.



2. Insert disabled by gate 'gms:security:enable_conscrypt_in_gms_application'



Google search found couple of postings with this message and there

were hints that this could be a signing key problem. However, I did

not detect any Cyanogenmod instructions and my initial unmodified

build worked with GApps and Google services.



3. Parcel errors when unmarshalling



Class com.google.android.gms.auth.firstparty.shared.AppD escription

not found. This is causing android.os.BadParcelableException

exception.



Any ideas what could cause these problems. Here is extract from log output:
