    The those seeing this error on API level 28 (Android 9.0), the Google Maps docs now describe [the required manifest entry](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/config#specify_requirement_for_apache_http_legacy_library). – Bob Snyder Aug 15 '18 at 20:16

Put this in the Manifest <application> tag:

<uses-library android:name="org.apache.http.legacy" android:required="false"/>

    This solved the problem. Don't quite understand why this is required, though. MapsActivity I used seemed to be all regular.. – frankliuao Jul 22 '18 at 15:46

    Android 9.0 is already released and Google still haven't fixed the maps library, neither documented that it requires this library. Very poor dev support. – headsvk Oct 01 '18 at 11:18

    @headsvk Google has documented it, see: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/config#specify_requirement_for_apache_http_legacy_library – jeff Oct 01 '18 at 11:25

    Still, Apache HTTP client support has been removed since Android 6: [https://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0-changes#behavior-apache-http-client](https://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0-changes#behavior-apache-http-client) – wamfous Jan 09 '19 at 08:26
  • This also fixed `java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Lorg/apache/http/message/BasicNameValuePair;` after I switched to AndroidX (and the subsequent 65K methods limit increase) – Someone Somewhere May 09 '19 at 16:29
  • does the legacy mode reduce map performance? with multiple markers and clusters? – Daniel Givoni Jul 03 '19 at 13:45
  • This worked on react native as well, when app would crash when loading maps. – Thomas Uchiha Jul 29 '19 at 22:03
  • This completely solved the problem for me in Android P version. – Alvaro Lazaro Feb 14 '20 at 06:38

This will resolve your crash. Apply this in manifest

 <application
             ...
             >
             ...
          <uses-library android:name="org.apache.http.legacy" 
           android:required="false"/>
             ...


<application/>

    What is `android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"` good for? Other answers does not mention this line. So optional? – Timo Bähr Dec 18 '18 at 18:57
  • 1
    @TimoBähr it is not part of the answer. answer is what ham mentoned, Nicky's answer makes it clearer to show that you should insert this line within application tags. – Emil Dec 20 '18 at 15:51
  • @TimoBähr the `android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"` is issue also that you will get later on, it is for security purposes. – Lester L. Jan 04 '19 at 07:41
  • @Lester.L If I declare `android:usesCleartextTraffic=”true”` this allows to communicate with cleartext http links - that is status quo. So as far as I understand only `android:usesCleartextTraffic=”false”` would make the app more "secure". Please correct me if I'm wrong. – Timo Bähr Jan 04 '19 at 08:01

    I removed it. It has nothing to do with and answer itself and should possibly cause some security breach if someone copy&paste it. – JerabekJakub Jan 14 '19 at 06:38
  • Ok but, when I press back button, this still appears in log -> 2019-06-11 23:11:26.279 8522-8522/com.example.myweatherapp E/SchedPolicy: set_timerslack_ns write failed: Operation not permitted – Sanjit Prasad Jun 11 '19 at 17:42

Do one of the following solutions:

1- Update the play-services-maps library to latest version:

com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:16.1.0

2- Or include the following declaration within the <application> element of AndroidManifest.xml.

<uses-library
      android:name="org.apache.http.legacy"
      android:required="false" />

If your app is targeting API level 28 (Android 9.0) or above, you must include the following declaration within the <application> element of AndroidManifest.xml.

 <uses-library
       android:name="org.apache.http.legacy"
  android:required="false" />

If your app is targeting API level 28 (Android 9.0) or above, you must include the following declaration within the element of AndroidManifest.xml. see the behavioral changes of app targeting 28+ in the below link

If this happen in Android 8.0 or above then just put this line in your manifest application tag

<uses-library android:name="org.apache.http.legacy" android:required="false"/>

Set tis: 

multiDexEnabled true

Like this: 

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    defaultConfig {

        multiDexEnabled true

    }
    buildTypes {
        release {

        }
    }
}

create an xml file res/xml/network_security_config.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <network-security-config>
      <base-config cleartextTrafficPermitted="true">
       <trust-anchors>
        <certificates src="system" />
       </trust-anchors>
      </base-config>
    </network-security-config>

And add 2 tags tag in your AndroidManifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <manifest......>
  <application android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_security_config">
   <activity..../> 
   ......
   ......
 <uses-library
        android:name="org.apache.http.legacy"
        android:required="false"/>
</application>

Also add useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy' in your app build gradle

defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.ascorb"
        minSdkVersion 19
        targetSdkVersion 28
        versionCode 6
        versionName "1.2"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
        useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'
    }

Add permissions in Manifest file 

`<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION."/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>`

and in part put this line of code

` <uses-library android:name="org.apache.http.legacy" android:required="false"/>`

I had the same problem and It was fixed by this.
