Add gps localisation on android app, using Plyer Kivy Python - python

I have prepared a simple code to look for the available cars close to my localisation. It works with hardcoded values, but I can't get the localisation module from Plyer to work. Now that I added the code to ask for the permissions, the app keep crashing while I open it.
Do you have an idea why it's crashing ?
Here's the python code :

#
#[app#demo]
#title = My Application (demo)
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns#demo]
#images/hd/*
#
# Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:
#
#buildozer --profile demo android debug
Thanks for your help !

There is no specific reason for the code to crash, but it is likely that it is due to a problem with the UrlRequest function. The error message that is being displayed when the code crashes will give more information about what is causing the crash.
Additionally, it seems that you are using an out-of-date library kivy.network.urlrequest which is not supported anymore, you should use requests library instead.
Also, if you are using the gps module, you should check that the GPS is enabled on the device and that the app has permission to access it.
It's also a good idea to include some error handling to handle any unexpected exceptions.
You may want to consider refactoring the code and testing it incrementally to identify and fix the problem.
This should fix it its not the code but u should check

How Can I upload arail.ttf file in colab bulidozer in order to make an apk android?

I have faced a kind of obstacle when I working with colab ...
I would like to make apk android with arabic language, what I have to make this happen is font name called arial.ttf ...
The obstacle that I am facing is when I upload arail.ttf file in the main directory (with my main.file) I will get an app that showing squares instead of Arabic words!!!! and some time the app crash as well, however when I remove the arial.ttf file from directory and (font_name = 'arail.ttf') from python code everything works fine
any help will be appreciated
I will leave you with a simple example

Solved ... I had to upload arial.ttf as follow (!wget kurdfonts.com/dl/tmp/6431207/arial.ttf), otherwise the process will not be completed.
I used to before trying to upload the arial.ttf file via colab directory, but this way didn't work (no idea why!!!).

What is or How to Diagnose SDL Error: Could not load any libpythonXXX.so on Android phones after Buildozer Build

I've successfully built a simple (ish) 'Hello World app' using Kivy and Buildozer. Having downloaded the apk to various android phones (android 5 and 10, Samsung j3 & another newer Samsung phone who's model number currently escapes me, but is only 2 years old) and after a successful install when I open the app I get the following error (after the splash screen deploys/loads):
SDL2 Error: An error occurred while trying to start the application. Please try again and/or reinstall. Error: Could not load any libpythonXXX.so
I have looked at this post but there's no answer, tried this on github and this doesn't work either. Unfortunately this SO post is no help. And I assume this post is referring to the Kivy version which also doesn't make any difference
Currently building on 64 bit linux mate 19.3
It runs on Kivy fine.
What follows are main.py the .kv file and buildozer.spec:
main.py:

tr.run()

Buildozer.spec: I've adjusted the target spec depending on what architecture I was building for armeabi-v7a for android 5 and arm64-v8a for the later version.
The python version is 3.6.9, which is the same as my system currently has, this allows the package to build and to avoid all those cython errors.

# Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:

My questions are:
Is there a simple fix for this, am I missing something obvious ? For example, I had many build errors, sometimes it was just a case of installing a missing library or getting my python versions correct in the buildozer.spec. I'm not suggesting that these might be the solution, just that the solution might be in the 'same order of complexity' i.e. relatively simple.
If it's not something simple, what would be a good way to go about starting to diagnose this kind of problem, at a guess, installing some kind of android development tools and going from there ?
I am currently trying out some diagnostics based on this post

Plyer Vibration Feature makes the app crashes

I am creating a simple app that lets the phone vibrate after pressing a certain button. I am using the plyer python library to implement TTS and Vibration. The TTS feature works well, however the vibration feature doesn't work and makes the app crashes.

from kivy.uix.screenmanager import ScreenManager, Screen
from plyer import vibrator, tts
class HomeWindow(Screen):

tts.speak(text_to_read)
class CameraWindow(Screen):
pass
#A class that deals with the transition between the windows
class WindowManager(ScreenManager):
pass
kv = Builder.load_file("Main.kv")
class MyMainApp(App):

I tried to reinstall the application, however it is still the same. P.S. I was building the APK file through Google Colab.
So apparently, I forgot to uncomment the Android Permissions that I put that resides within the buildozer.spec file.

My ads in kivy app aren't showing up kivmob

I've looked some old threads on this issue but they didn't work for me. The thing is, I am trying with test ads but it still doesn't work. I am posting just some parts of code that are connected with ads because I see no point in posting the whole code because ads aren't really connected to everything, they just pop up over everything else and that's it, at least I think. I guess the spec file is more probable to be the problem because when I run the script on my computer there is no errors, it says that it won't show the apps and that's it, everything else is normal, but I don't know. I didn't add any reward for rewarded_ad because I just want to test ads like this and later I will add the rewards and everything. Also, maybe worth mentioning, when I run buildozer android debug, this warning pops up, don't know does it mean anything to this problem:
# WARNING: Config token app android.sdk is deprecated and ignored, but you set value 20
Please help and if you need any other info, please ask. Thanks in advance.
Here is the part of code where I define ads:
class MyApp(App):
show_banner = True
toggle_banner = ObjectProperty(None)
def build(self):
self.ads = KivMob(TestIds.APP)
self.ads.new_banner(TestIds.BANNER)
self.ads.request_banner()
self.ads.new_interstitial(TestIds.INTERSTITIAL)
self.ads.request_interstitial()
sm = Manager()
sm.add_widget(Main_screen(name='main'))
sm.add_widget(GameWidget(name='game'))
return sm
def toggle_banner(self):
self.show_banner = not self.show_banner
if self.show_banner:
self.ads.show_banner()
else:
self.ads.hide_banner()
And here is where I call ads (it's in different class in a method):
App.get_running_app().toggle_banner()
App.get_running_app().ads.show_interstitial()
