Sigin my app with Google Account in Android

Question

I have learned that there are many ways to sign in app with Google Account.
Here are two ways:

Use
AccountManager.java
,
GOOD: can get user's email address and authToken.
BAD: can not get user's avatar and nickname.

Use
Google+ Api
:
GOOD: can get user's all info , but email address.
BAD: no email address, and the view's style is not matching to my app.

QUESTION:

1 .How can i get avatar and nickname by using only

AccountManager

?

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

You can get the Email address via the Google+ API. You need to add the appropriate scopes and permission.

The scopes are

Scopes.PROFILE
Scopes.EMAIL

And you need the following permission

android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS

Then you can retrieve the Email address with the AccountApi

Plus.AccountApi.getAccountName(googleApiClient)
