Android: Routing using Google Map's new API - android

I'm a new Android Developer and I have been researching on this topic for over 2 weeks before resorting to asking this question on SO. A lot of the code I've found that does routing are all in KML which is not supported anymore.
I'd be most grateful if someone could provide me examples or working code to go about doing this and please note that I am a beginner android developer.
Thank you so much.

You can see my post here, it shows you how to get Directions from JSON instead of KML since it is not supported anymore.

This might happen if you don't have a billing account associated with your project.
Take a look at https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/modify-project
Also, if that answers your question, I will suggest before posting a new question, you search for similar questions on StackOverflow.
This practice helps reduce redundancy on the forum. I can see a couple of questions related to the same problem

How do I add markers to streets only - Android Development

After plenty of searching, I haven't yet found a solution that works for me and I'm really hoping someone here could help me. First I'll explain my problem, and then I'll mention some of the approaches I've attempted/considered so far.
Basically, I'm developing an Android app where markers randomly appear around the user's location. The catch is, the markers need to be placed on streets only.
I've been working with Google Maps Android API V2 but I'm trying to work around using anything with "limitations" such as 'geocoding'.
I've considered using different map API's such as Nutiteq but I've had some trouble implementing them. It would be nice to stick to Google since I've become familiar with it but I'm willing to try any suggestions you may have.
I have even considered loading up Google Maps API V3 in an html file so that I can use GDirections to load a path from one point to itself and then parse this data to Google Maps Android API V2 using JS but turns out GDirections has a limit as well.
Anyone have any idea how I can go about doing this? Even if the solution is hacky, it's still something.
I'm fairly new to Android Development.
Funny what you want to achieve. You don't need to load API V3 html. You can use directions api directly: http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=51,19&destination=51,19&sensor=false
It still has limitations, but is was like 2000 or something a day a device. And you don't want to put more than 2000 markers on single user's screen, do you?
This is easy to parse, for example with Gson.

How to get Yandex Traffic Feed on Android Application

I am very new with Android and i'm trying to get traffic feed from yandex's map service. All i need is getting live feed for Istanbul's general traffic situation as it shown it the map "İstanbul Trafik Durumu 3. derece 12.27 Yer yer yoğun, akıcı trafik".
I don't need to display map or something else. I read the documentation but didn't found something clear for that. Can you give me some advice on it? Or can you recommend another service to accomplish this task?
Seems like i have to answer my own question :s :D
A friend of mine sent an e-mail to Yandex about this issue and reply was:
