Sorry Im new to Android Development, dont know how to convert google maps v1 to google maps v2, cant find any good source related to transition from one api to another api...
Main thing is to know what api v1 method/datatype/libs/overlay = to api v2, I for testing I had created working simple solution of working api v2 google maps so i know what should be changed in manifest in loyaut but main problem in Java code and api transition.
Now API has been out to the v3. I suggest you choose v3.

I am making a project on tourist guidance system on android. I wanted to include google maps in my application and wanted to know whether to use google maps API v3 or v2? Also, I cannot find any tutorial that tells me how to include v3. Any help would be appreciated. thank you
Google Maps API V2 is the native version of Google maps, while Google Maps API V3 is new API for web development, you could use the API V3 and embed it into a WebView, but if you want to achieve the best result you should use Google Maps API V2 for Android.
Here a blog guide I wrote on how to embed Google Maps API V2 in your application that you can use to get started:
Google Maps API V2
The latest version of the Maps API for Android is v2, v3 is for the web.
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/
Google Maps API v2 provide specific api for android.
Wih the api for web development ,Google Maps API v3 has been designed to load quickly and work well on mobile devices. In particular, focused on development for advanced mobile devices such as Android and iOS handsets.googlemap#mobile
use google map v3 in android with webview and javascript interface.
Here google map v3 a blog guide I wrote on how to use Google Maps API V3 in your android application.
In 2013 v2 is valid but now v3 is latest for android map check below thread

My Map is shown like this
But I want to show my map as like this .! i have follow this tutorial google map tutorial .please help where I'm doing wrong ?
Api Snaphot :
First of all the guide you are using is for Google Maps API V1. Right now there is no point in using this API version because it's deprecated and you can't receive a key as Google does not hand them out any more.
So the first suggestion would be to move your implementation to API V2. You can get an idea on how to use API V2 by reading this blog post I wrote on this matter:
Google Maps API V2
I have developed an application which uses mapView. I have used Google maps for android v1. I finished my app and now ready to publish but unfortunately Google stopped providing API key from March 18th 2013. Now i'm in a huge trouble.
So is there any way that i can obtain a API key for Google maps for android v1,
or
Can i use Google maps for android v2 key with out changing my code (Like ItemizedOverlays, Overlays, and Drawings on map)
Please Help !!!
Thanks in advance.
This the time you can migrate from current Version V1 to V2. Detailed explanation for Version V2 is here.
Follow steps by steps instruction from the tutorial.
1. You can try to address Google and ask them to provide you with a key, although I doubt they will agree doing that.
2. No you can't use most of the object you used in the Google Map API v1. Overlays are not supported in V2 and you should use polygones and polylines.
I'm developing an app. on SDK 17 which involves google maps but the problem is that when I use Google Maps v1 api key, the map works fine but when I try to use Google Maps android V2 api key nothing is displayed (only the google maps tiles appear). I have included the google play services library and searched for all possible reasons but couldn't find one. Please help!
1)Go to the Google APIs Console https://code.google.com/apis/console/#project:650847076763
2)In Services enable ‘Google Maps Android API v2’ and agree to the terms
3)In the left navigation bar, click API Access.
4)Click Create New Android Key....
Google maps api V1 is already deprecated use the maps api V2 instead.
