Im almost just a beginner in android. I was trying to make a very simple app with google maps, ie just displaying maps. I followed the following link:
file:///C:/Android/Android%20Google%20Maps%20V2%20Tutorial.htm
But when I test it on my device it says it has stopped working and closes.
Here is my Manifest.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.googleapi"
android:versionCode="1"

<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<!-- Required to show current location -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />

</intent-filter>
</activity>
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
android:value="AIzaSyA5BsIL-3rppsOxQOuX4gBZT3c0cTHNbWc" />
</application>
</manifest>
Acyivity code is: (I tried extending FragementActivity but dosent work with it too.)
package com.example.googleapi;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
// Google Map
private GoogleMap googleMap;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
try {
// Loading map
initilizeMap();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
/**
* function to load map. If map is not created it will create it for you
* */
private void initilizeMap() {
if (googleMap == null) {
googleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(
R.id.map)).getMap();
// check if map is created successfully or not
if (googleMap == null) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Sorry! unable to create maps", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
}
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
initilizeMap();
}
}
and XML code is( some part of it):
<fragment
android:id="#+id/map"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>

I have googled a lot about it and got some direct questions on it but no answer ?? .
It seems many have the same problem.Can anyone help with this problem. I want to develop an app but not able to proceed as Google mpas api is main part of it.
Your are missing a meta tag in the application tag of manifest
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
You should use SupportMapFragment instead of MapFragment.
Change
<fragment
android:id="#+id/map"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
to
<fragment
android:id="#+id/map"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
Change
googleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(
R.id.map)).getMap();
TO
googleMap = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(
R.id.map)).getMap();
Whatever you have done is ok with older version of GooglePlayServices, but its apparently visible from your logcat that you are using GooglePlayServices 13 or higher so you need to add the meta data tag in your manifest just the way Raghunandan have answered.

Not sure why this is happening, the application shows no errors and I've obtained the key successfully as well but the activity doesn't run!

Change your android :name in your XML file
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"
Replace with your Fragment package and fragment name like
android:name="com.example.prateekchachra.projectconnecttoastmasters.MapScreen"

I am not getting where I am getting wrong or missing anything and
how to remove please help me in solving this issue.
The Log say you:
Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: API key not found. Check that <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY" android:value="your API key"/> is in the <application> element of AndroidManifest.xml
So be sure that you added it in AndroidManifest.xml like in the guide:
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
android:value="API_KEY"/>
In your manifest file error cause this line
<!-- Goolge Maps API Key -->
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
android:value="my api key" />
In value of API key you must add your own API key.
See This link for generate API key
Clearly from your logcat, you have just copy pasted the manifest.xml file. You have to enter your key instead of your API key
Generate your key from google console. And use it in manifest.xml
You will need two metadata for version2 of googlemap
One with api key and another with google service
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version"
So you should simply copy paste the line. And only try to under stand later.
:-)
Edited:
Change the package name to yours (not of androidhive :-)) Change the line in permission
<permission
android:name="info.androidhive.googlemapsv2.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
android:protectionLevel="signature" />
To:
<permission
android:name="com.example.careandcure.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
android:protectionLevel="signature" />
Also why are you using package name of info.androidhive.googlemapsv2 in uses-permission. Change it to your own package name i.e. com.example.careandcure . Hope it's finally your solution.
I do not know, what i am doing wrong in either my manifest, activity or xml to load map version 2,
i found multiple exceptions if you see my concise logcat,

You need to add the below to manifest file
<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
Place this at the end of your manifest, after your Map API key meta-data tag.
Check out HERE
It's a new requirement added from the last revision 13 update to google-play-services.
You need to add the following in your manifest
...
<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
</application>
This information can be found in the logcat error msg.
And also on google play services website
I am trying to get Google Maps Android API v2 working on Android 2.2 on a HTC Desire.
My main.xml contains the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="dk.sw510e13.user"
android:versionCode="1"

android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<activity
android:name="dk.sw510e13.user.MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
This is my activity.
package dk.sw510e13.user;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.view.Menu;
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
}
When I run the application, I will get the following exception. It seems that it cannot find SupportMapFragment, however, I believe that I have both the support library and Google Play Services as dependencies. When creating the project in Android Studio I chose to add support for fragments.

This is the problem that seems to be occurred when missing Google Play services.
I request you to please follow the steps mentioned below to get the Google Play services to be included in your application.
copying the google-play-services.jar in libs folder and set in the build path of eclipse is a wrong method.
import Google Play services in your project and add it in workspace.
from location of your SDK folder.
\extras\google\google_play_services\libproject\google-play-services_lib
2! Now you added Google Play Services to your work space, we have to create a reference
from our project to this library. Right-Click your project and choose “Properties” go
to the Android section, in the lower part press the “Add…” button and add a reference
to that library. Your result should be as in the screen shot bellow:
adding Google Play services library
Please Add
<permission
android:name="com.anchit.locationapi.maps.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
android:protectionLevel="signature" />
in your manifest

I think the Problem is how I include the GooGlePlayService... I´ve tried to add as module, as libary as External Libary but I don't know how to include and to use it right... :(

****EDIT2**
Problem solved by using this: java.lang.noclassdeffounderror: com.google.android.gms.R$styleable**
The only thing I find missing in your RecorderMap.java file is that you haven't imported the SupportFragment class. So add this line to it
import com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment;
If that doesn't work, then check out the following.
From what you are saying, it means you have already installed the google play services. If not, then try installing it using this link http://developer.android.com/google/play-services/setup.html
After that, referencing the google play services library should be as easy as editing your build.gradle file. The current version of android studio makes this possible. Under dependencies in your build.gradle file, add the following code
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:3.1.36'
You seem to have your API key intact.
Finally, remember you need to test your app on an actual android device and not an emulator. The android API version 2 is not yet able to display maps on emulators.
I think this should be okay for your app to work.
