From Dankoman (slimroms gapps maintainer).

Google changed a bunch of stuff in new play services. This has caused issues for several apps, including maps and hangouts. Some modifications needed to be done, but I think I've got the kinks worked out. After flashing latest gapps (which is version 282), if you're having issues with maps or hangouts won't stop trying to update itself, do this:

1. Remove Google account from phone
2. Clear data for play store, play services, and services framework.
3. Reboot into recovery and clear cache.

This should prevent the need to clean flash (though that will also take care of the issue, if you'd rather do that), and you should only have to do this once.

Slimroms minimal Gapps
slim minimal gapps are very basic and light, slim rom also comes with nova launcher as default, you will have to dl google now launcher from the playstore (if you get an error about upgrading google search first just log into another google app before trying again. ie. gmail).
