It seems an update to Google Play Services has broken the functionality of my app.

I have installed Google Play Services version 18 now. Don't know the version before. My app is compiled with API 8.

I have tried to compile with API12 and Google Play services for Froyo version 12 installed. Same thing.

App was perfectly working before the update.

I am puzzled.
