Answer 1

Try clean build both the Library Project and Normal projects First. Is not worked check the following :

i included google-play-services jar library file

You don't have to include the jar. You have to import as android library project.

1. Import the library project in your workspace
2. Add it to your project as library
3. Then build the app

Reason: The library project has some xml resources. So the project cannot be imported as jar.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.google.android.gms.R$styleable

As log says styleable cannot be referenced as you haven't built resources.

The R file is a generated one.

From jar u cannot get reference to

1. Drawables (images)
2. xml resources [Styles, Strings etc.]

Answer 2

If you are using Android 2.3.3 you need to use SupportMapFragment instead of MapFragment and FragmentActivity instead of Activity.

In the onCreate of your activity you can add the SupportMapFragment...

    SupportMapFragment fragment = new SupportMapFragment();
    getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
            .add(android.R.id.content, fragment).commit();
