Android: Testing app on Google Maps - android

I have a tablet Genesis GT-7240, Android 4.1.1, Kernel 3.0.36+.
My manifest.xml:
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="11" android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
It is a simple app, using Google Maps and so it must be compiled with API GOOGLE.
As I testing in a real device, I checked 'Unknown sources', copied the compiled apk into 'download' folder of the tablet, and I tried install it as I always usually do.
However, has a message
X App not instaled.
Another tablet, which has Android 3.2, the same app works perfectly.
Is there a issue with Android 4.1 and Api Google compilation?

Can't get map with Google Map API V2

I'm trying to get a simple map on my app by using Google Map API V2; I followed all the steps to do it but when I launch my app, I only get white page with a Google logo in the left bottom.
If someone can help me with this, it will be great..
This is the XML file:
<fragment xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/map" tools:context=".MapsActivity"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"/>
This is the file Java:
package com.example.ismail.location_test;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.OnMapReadyCallback;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.LatLng;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.MarkerOptions;
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity {
private GoogleMap mMap;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_maps);
setUpMapIfNeeded();
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
setUpMapIfNeeded();
}
private void setUpMapIfNeeded() {
// Do a null check to confirm that we have not already instantiated the map.
if (mMap == null) {
// Try to obtain the map from the SupportMapFragment.
mMap = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map))
.getMap();
// Check if we were successful in obtaining the map.
if (mMap != null) {
setUpMap();
}
}
}
private void setUpMap() {
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(new LatLng(0, 0)).title("Marker"));
}
}
And finally the Manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="17"
android:targetSdkVersion="21" />
<uses-permission android:name="com.example.ismail.location_test.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"/>

I don't see anything wrong with your code. The symptom you decribe point to a not valid api key or gps is turned off, or even your are running this is an emulator with no google play installed. Check what google play versions is installed and used under build.gradle. eg:
dependencies {
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.87'
I suggest you post your debuger log, if it is an api error it will state it there.
I suspect 3 things wrong in your code :
(1) Declare permission before using it :
<permission android:name="com.example.ismail.location_test.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE" android:protectionLevel="signature"/>
<!-- after declare use this -->
<uses-permission android:name="com.example.ismail.location_test.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"/>
(2) Missing Declare gms version variable :
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
(3) Missing declare API_KEY :
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
android:value="AIzaS33yBBDxSDFsdf33BK-7HCasdfSADFfa72wJnKLZvq6A" />
Please check with above 3 suspects first : then if still error is there you can re-confirm steps to enable Google Maps from here

can't display Openstreetmap

I want to display a part of a OSM but i don't know what's the problem with my code, when I run it, the map didn't display:
No error appear but the map didn't only display! I work with eclipse and the emulator Google API 8!
here is my MainActivity code:

// mapView.setMapFile("/sdcard/essai.jpg");

setContentView(mapView);
}
}
and my AndroidManifest:

add this permission to your manifest and will be fine :
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>

R cannot be resolved to a variable (on google maps)

i know this sound stupid by asking the question that many people had already asked before, but i am getting frustated by now because every answer that i looked after (more time than i care to mention), regarding those error could not make my code right.
i watched the code making in youtube and downloaded here.
anyway here is my sample code

map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(LOCATION_PALEMBANG).title("Find me here!"));
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {

getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu); <--- this line (same error)
return true;
}
public void onClick_City(View v) {
// CameraUpdate update = CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(LOCATION_PALEMBANG);
map.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE);
CameraUpdate update = CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(LOCATION_PALEMBANG, 9);
map.animateCamera(update);
}
public void onClick_Burnaby(View v) {

also i'm having a problem with my values-v14, it is said that :" Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar'."
please can anybody help me ?
This error is usually caused by either of these possibilities:
The most probable: You have a syntax error in any of your layout files (i.e., the files located under the res\layout folder of your project). The bad thing of this is that Eclipse won't warn you and tell you where's the error, so you'll have to go one by one looking for the syntax (probably an unmatched tag, an unmatched attribute, etc.) and fix the issue.
The other possibility is a syntax error within your AndroidManifest.xml file. Same goes here, check it for syntax errors.
One of these two will fix your issue.

Getting NullPointerException while developing simple Google map application

I am new to Google maps of Android and I am developing simple Google map application using Android.(I am using Google map V2).
I referred this link: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/614946/Android-google-map-api-v-setup
Also i tried to use MapFragment instead of SupportMapFragment but still,
I am facing NullPointerException at line 24:
line 24: googleMap.setMapType(googleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE);

Here is the log cat output:
Instead of this:-
googleMap.setMapType(googleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE);
Write this :-
googleMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE);
Refer this link, It will help you a lot.
change this
googleMap = ((SupportMapFragment)(getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map))).getMap();
to
googleMap = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
And also change this
googleMap.setMapType(googleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE);
to
googleMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE);
Do you have Google Play Services installed on your testing device?
If not, getMap() returns null.
If you test in on an emulator, only the emulators with Android version 4.2.2 and above have Google Play Services installed.

For eclipse add this :

If you are using Android Studio(latest version) with gradle0.7+ then add this line:
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
android:value="Your Key" />
Add the Google Play services version to your app's manifest
Edit your application's AndroidManifest.xml file, and add the
following declaration within the element. This embeds the version of
Google Play services that the app was compiled with.
You just need to add <meta-data> under <application> tag into your AndroidManifest.xml
....<application>
<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
</application>
