When a marker is tapped a weird menu is revealed in the bottom right of the map. Clicking on the buttons in that menu will launch the Google Maps app with directions to the Lat/Lng of the marker. Any idea on how to disable that menu?

I tried combing through the google maps documentation to find a boolean to flip to disable this feature.
I am developing an Android Application where I'm using Google Map API v2.
I need to show Image & TextView on a map with custom markers.
Please refer to the attached image for better understanding:
Anyone have any idea on how to get rid of the buttons (like the compass button when rotating the map) presented on the image when clicking a marker. It is linked to Google map application. And i want to get rid of it. thanks
Here is the link for the sample image http://i.stack.imgur.com/8gw5b.png
Is it possible to launch a Google Maps window from my app that shows a specific position plus a balloon with a label that I can define?
This could be done with
geo:lat,lon?q=my_label
but with latest Google Maps it shows a marker on the position with no balloon attached to it, then on the bottom of the screen it reads "labeled as my_label". Can I circumvent this?
I want to put the search button in google maps in Android application (like the way I added zoom controls). However, I am not able to find a way to add it.
If you want to add a search button, you have to implement a the Reverse Geocoding, using a GeoCoder that receives your searched Strings from a EditText so with the coordinates obtained you can set a geopoint in the MapOverlay to show the searched position on the map.
For more info about Google Maps geocoding see:

This question is too vague. What "search button" are you talking about? Do you mean a SearchView? There's a search widget in the maps.google.com web interface, but that's not the standard Android design. The Android Google Maps app uses a SearchView with history and autocomplete.
