I receive this error in the LogCat when i try to use the Google Maps API: "Failed to load map. error contacting google servers. this is probably an authentication issue."

I searched all the solutions on the internet, but none of them worked. The api worked until i switched to release api key from debug api key.

I swithed on Google Maps Android API v2 on the API's console, everything... i cleaned the project, delete it and import it again.. etc.. but none of them worked. Does anyone know what can i do ?

  • have you created the new API key and combined it with your package ? that is what usually the authentication issues about the API key – Moh Sakkijha Aug 17 '13 at 16:40

  • @Sebyddd check this link https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/start you might have already checked it, but double check creating the SHA finger print – Moh Sakkijha Aug 17 '13 at 19:41

If you're completely sure that your API key from the manifest file is the right one, your SHA1 key / package name are correctly copied down and you have an active Internet connection, then you should try uninstalling app from your device or emulator and build it again afterwards.
