Create an emulator from genymotion that supports google map api. You can look this up.
Find a download for the app store that will run on your emulator. I found mine here: http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps#Universal_Packages_2... I was using the 4.2.2 version.
Drag and drop that into your emulator. I am using google nexus.
Say ok to the prompts.
Once everything is installed close down the emulator and restart.
sign up with a good account.
Voilà

Android mobile device not showing in my eclipse browser

While I am trying to run Google Maps type apps I try to run using my android device. But device is not showing in my eclipse browser. What should I do ?
Is there any alternate way to run these type of applications ?
my menifest file as below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

Please Share what you have tried?
where you have to run this Application?
Please check Right click on the project->Run As->Run Configuration Now one window will show..That contains three tabs like Android,Target,Common.
1.You should select Launch default Activity in android tab
2.You should Select Automatically pick compatible Device
Ple try it
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="12"
android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
Ple Check this lines from Your manifest flie.. android:minSdkVersion="12" know..For Your Mobile Should not Greater than from 12.Please Check

This worked for me:
Create an apk file with same keystore key you have stored into Google Maps Console and install into your device. Installing into Android device using eclipse will not take your correct SHA1 key to view the Google Maps. As incorrect SHA1 key will lead to authentication failure.

I am testing my app on htc 1x.
here is logcat

It seems you have not added the play services to your project
You should reference the library project in your android map project.
http://developer.android.com/google/play-services/setup.html
Refer to this answer for more help on how to add play-service lib to your project

My Android App shows the google map in debug but doesn't show it when released to the market

I have an app that I have created that uses the Google Maps and Google Playstore and in debug using Eclipse and the Android SDK the map shows up on the device I am running but when released it doesn't show up on the app. Theres just a big grey screen.

Could it be the Keystore. I have a release keystore file that was generated do I need to get the keystore from that if so how?

Are you just seeing gray screen then... it's almost definitely the API key that is wrong. The Emulator uses the debug keystore, with androiddebugkey, so you should create an API key for that. Remember to change it when you publish the app to the market
refer this

When U make your apk file. U need create a keystore. Now, using that keystore to get MD5 using "Keytool", like you did with debug keystore. After that, U need to register API key from MD5, you just got. And late, U use API key in your android manifest.

I assume it is a keystore problem.
Get the SHA1 from the keystore using the "keytool"
And register it like you did with the debug keystore.
And you are good to go.

I post to you my manifest code :

</manifest>
All steps in many tutorials have a same code , I Think a problem is in emulator .

Google Map Api v2 wont show the map if you try to run it in Emulator or Device.
In order to show Map you need to sign the Application and then through command prompt try to install your application. Hope you will be able to get Map.
Few Steps required:-
1) You need add Libray project to your application
adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219\sdk\extras\google\google_play_services\libproject
Hope this will help you.

From the tutorial i read from this http://agusharyanto.net/wordpress/?p=893 from indonesia, you must use the google service library on the Google API that you choose and use another application venton.apk and gms.apk from adb command. If you dont understand the languages, try understand by look at the image explanation.
