Answer 1

Get Account Full Name

First Add this permission into AndroidManifest.xml file

 <uses-permission
 android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS"/>

Java Code

 public static Account getAccount(AccountManager accountManager) {
        Account[] accounts = accountManager.getAccountsByType("com.google");
        Account account;
        if (accounts.length > 0) {
            account = accounts[0];
        } else {
            account = null;
        }
        return account;
    }

Call getAccount();

    Account account = getAccount(AccountManager.get(context));
    String accountName = account.name;
    String fullName = accountName.substring(0,accountName.lastIndexOf("@"));
    emailEditText.setText(accountName);
    fullNameEditText.setText(fullName);

If Account Email is -

abc@gmail.com

then Name is -

abc

Place below code in your activity. You will get what you wanted. This is new way to fetch google user info.

//Global variables:
        GoogleSignInOptions gso;
        private GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;    
    //inside onCreate():
        gso = new GoogleSignInOptions.Builder(GoogleSignInOptions.DEFAULT_SIGN_IN)
                            .requestEmail()
                            .requestProfile()
                            .requestScopes(new Scope(Scopes.PLUS_ME))
                            .requestScopes(new Scope(Scopes.PLUS_LOGIN))
                            .requestScopes(new Scope(Scopes.PROFILE))
                            .build();
                    mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
                            .enableAutoManage(this , this )
                            .addApi(Auth.GOOGLE_SIGN_IN_API, gso)
                            .addApi(Plus.API)
                            .build();

Place Below code out of onCreate()

 //to get google account info:
    private void handleSignInResult(GoogleSignInResult result) {
            Log.d(TAG, "handleSignInResult:" + result.isSuccess());
            if (result.isSuccess()) {
                GoogleSignInAccount acct = result.getSignInAccount();
                String pic_info=null;
                int g;
                String gender="Null";
                String userid="";
                if (Plus.PeopleApi.getCurrentPerson(mGoogleApiClient) != null) {
                    Person currentPerson = Plus.PeopleApi.getCurrentPerson(mGoogleApiClient);
                    userid=currentPerson.getId(); //BY THIS CODE YOU CAN GET CURRENT LOGIN USER ID
                    g=currentPerson.getGender();
                    gender = (g==1)?"Female":(g==0)?"Male":"Others";
                }

                if(acct.getPhotoUrl() != null) {
                    pic_info = acct.getPhotoUrl().toString();
                    Log.e("info", pic_info + " ");
                }
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"welcome "+acct.getDisplayName(),Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                SharedPreferences sharedPref = getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences("user", MODE_PRIVATE);
                SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPref.edit();
                editor.putString("social_media","google");
                editor.putString("id",userid);
                editor.putString("email",acct.getEmail());
                editor.putString("name",acct.getDisplayName());
                editor.putString("profile_pic",pic_info);
                editor.putString("gender",gender);
                editor.apply();
                Intent intent=new Intent(LoginActivity.this,SignOutActivity.class);
                startActivity(intent);
                finish();
            }
