Question

My activity code

package com.example.testmap;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.view.Menu;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment;

public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
    return true;
}

}

xml file code

   <RelativeLayout 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:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context=".MainActivity" >


    <TextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/hello_world" />

    <fragment
        android:id="@+id/map"

        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_marginRight="150dp"
        class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment" />

</RelativeLayout>

Answer 1

1. Try to remove this line:

class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"

from the fragment in the XML file, it shouldn't be there.

2. Change this permission:

<permission
android:name="android.os.Bundle.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
android:protectionLevel="signature" />

to this:

<permission
android:name="com.example.mapdemo.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
android:protectionLevel="signature" />

if com.example.mapdemo is your project package. if not change it to your project package in this permission and this:

<uses-permission android:name="com.example.mapdemo.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE" />

Answer 2

Have you copied google-play-services.jar instead of linking to google-play-services_lib project?

Follow this carefully: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/start
