I also want to know minimum requirement for Google map API v2

Have you installed the Google Play services SDK and added it as a library? — Marco Batista, Jan 20 '13 at 12:32

First install Google play service and if you are using Android 2.2 then use this code

public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {    
    @Override
     protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);    
        SupportMapFragment fragment = new SupportMapFragment();
        getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(android.R.id.content, fragment).commit();
    }    
    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
        return true;
    }
}

I faced a similar problem, and I solved that issue with the following scenario steps:

-1- I downloaded the latest ADT (the windows 64 bit version 23.0.3) in order to install the Google play services API.

-2- The problem existed still, tried @user3469294 answer in this link.

There is something wrong with ADT 64 bit version, when it comes to using the SupportMapFragment (keeps crashing), downloading ADT for 32 bit and installing google play services API on it's SDK then using it's library solved my problem.
