Geocoder.getFromLocation grpc failed on Android real device

Check your internet connection . what is going on is at some point between the search and the results rendering , the connection is either to slow or not working at all . so the default error is no GRCP found. your code needs to handle this type of errors and prevent the crash of the map

It looks like this is ongoing issue that was reported in the Google issue tracker both for real devices and emulators. You can refer to the following bugs:

https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/64418751

https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/64247769

Unfortunately, Google haven't solved these issues yet.

As a workaround you can consider using the Geocoding API web service. Please note that there is a Java client library for web services that you can find on Github:

https://github.com/googlemaps/google-maps-services-java

Using Java client library for web services you can implement reverse geocoding lookup that shouldn't give you the error that you experience with native Android geocoder.

The Javadoc for client library is located at

https://googlemaps.github.io/google-maps-services-java/v0.2.5/javadoc/

I hope this helps!
