While creating credentials for OAuth 2.0 client IDs use this
$ keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -list -v
to get the SHA-1 fingerprint.
I also had the same issue, but this worked for me.

Yes

The "Connection to Play Services failed" can sometime be related to permission not being granted to "android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" in versions of Android greater than Marshmallow. That is how I solved the problem with Android 7.Then after granting permission I had to set a precondition for launching on versions pre Marshmallow:

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {
                // Verify that all required contact permissions have been granted.
}
