I have all the latest API's and SDK's installed on Android Studio. I have a Google maps API key. My app starts on my Note 4 perfectly in debug mode. It looks exactly the way it should - a Google map with a PlaceAutocompleteFragment search box on top of the map. However, when I select the PlaceAutocompleteFragment search box and type just one character into it, it starts a quick search wait circle then goes away, never returning any results. The app does not crash, it just goes back to the way it started. I could do this over and over without it crashing or the PlaceAutocompleteFragment returning any results.
java class:
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback {
private GoogleMap mMap;
/**

setContentView(R.layout.activity_maps);
// Obtain the SupportMapFragment and get notified when the map is ready to be used.
SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map);

fragment.setOnPlaceSelectedListener(new PlaceSelectionListener() {
@Override
public void onPlaceSelected(Place place) {
// Handle the selected Place
Context context = getApplicationContext();
CharSequence text = place.getName();
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_LONG;

toast.show();
}

The manifest uses the gps location and internet:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
Please help.
