Application crashes when using Google Maps v2 on most devices

Im trying to code some application that uses Google Maps API. The map is shown in the main activity.

On some phones, including the emulator, the application crashes immediately after starting. The only phone it works with is my Galaxy S1, which runs CM10.1 (4.2.2).

It crashes on my HTC DESIRE HD (4.2.2 as well)

MainActivity.java:

Just do the following to check if google play services are available:

int status = GooglePlayServicesUtil.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(getApplicationContext());
    if(status == ConnectionResult.SUCCESS) {
        //Success! Do what you want

    }else{
        GooglePlayServicesUtil.getErrorDialog(status, this, status);
    }

It will check for google play services and if are not available it will prompt user to download them from google play
