Have you tried

Intent shareIntent = new PlusShare.Builder(this)
        .setText("CREATE_ITEM")
        .setType("text/plain")
        .setContentUrl(Uri.parse("https://plus.google.com/share?url="+ urlToShare)
        .setContentDeepLinkId(Uri.parse("/pages/create"))
        .getIntent();

startActivityForResult(shareIntent, 0);

Check the source just in case you don't have something configured correctly: https://developers.google.com/+/mobile/android/share/deep-link

And IDK if addCallToAction can still be of use because according to the docs https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/plus/PlusShare.Builder#addCallToAction(java.lang.String,%20android.net.Uri,%20java.lang.String) it requires a signed-in PlusClient in the builder, but it is not available anymore in the updated play services: https://stackoverflow.com/a/31654018/6248510

Hope it helps
