Following is my code for the map fragment(F1) MapsFragment.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>

<fragment
    android:id="@+id/map"
    android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" 
    android:clickable="true"/>

</RelativeLayout>

This is the java code: MapsFragment.java

public class MapsFragment extends Fragment {

private GoogleMap googleMap;
double latitude;
double longitude;

        googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newCameraPosition(cp));

        googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);

        googleMap.getUiSettings().setAllGesturesEnabled(true);

    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.e("TAG", "MSG: " + e);
    }

    return rootView;
}

private void initializeMap() {
    if (googleMap == null) {
        googleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(
                R.id.map)).getMap();

        if (googleMap == null) {
            Toast.makeText(MapsFragment.this.getActivity(),
                    "Sorry! unable to create maps", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
                    .show();
        }
    }
}

@Override
public void onDestroyView() {
    super.onDestroyView();
    Fragment fragment = (getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map));
    FragmentTransaction ft = getActivity().getFragmentManager()
            .beginTransaction();
    ft.remove(fragment);
    ft.commit();
}
}

Can someone please help ?! Thank you.

Are you loading same `MapsFragment.xml` into your `Fragmten2`? — M D, Jun 03 '14 at 10:58
Use MapView. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20919048/android-android-view-inflateexception-binary-xml-file-line-8-error-inflatin/20971284#20971284. Looks like you have nested fragments. Do you want that? — Raghunandan, Jun 03 '14 at 11:04
@SimplePlan: no ive a different frame_container where i load both fragments F1 and F2. — Varun Barve, Jun 03 '14 at 11:48

public MapsFragment() {

@Override

        Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    //Let the mapFragment draw itself and then you return this view later at the bottom.
    View mapView = super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);


    /*View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_maps, container,
            false);*/

    try {
