Thanks In advance for any Help

Note Version 2 of the Google Maps JavaScript API is no longer available. You must migrate your solution to version 3. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/services — CodeMonkey, Aug 20 '14 at 13:41
@jason thanks for the reply man actually i got sick and couldn't check my email.... i want to implement this on android and i have done creating my own KML file and then done parsing to display exactly as it was created... but now i want to parse any KML sample file like [link](https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/KML_Samples.kml) exactly as displayed on google map now i try to follow [link](https://github.com/micromata/javaapiforkml#java-api-for-kml) but i think that's for web Implementation correct me if m wrong... thanks for help — Mustanser Iqbal, Aug 29 '14 at 06:03
You should be able to create HTML page using example below with a link to particular KML file to view and post that document in a public web site to access from your mobile (e.g., dropbox, google docs, etc.). javaapi4kml can be used for web implementation and generating KML on the fly from a server. — CodeMonkey, Aug 29 '14 at 11:57

The KmlLayer renders KML elements into a Maps API V3 tile overlay.

If you want to display an existing KML file using Google Maps API you can try something like this:

function initialize() {
  var location = new google.maps.LatLng(41.875696,-87.624207); // Chicago
  var mapOptions = {
    zoom: 11,
    center: location
  }

  var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions);

  var ctaLayer = new google.maps.KmlLayer({
    url: 'http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ggeoxml/cta.kml'
  });
  ctaLayer.setMap(map);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);

The full working example with HTML + JavaScript can be found here. For more details see the KmlLayer Maps API Reference.
