I'm just trying to see a map in my android app and i'm having some troubles. I've been following severals tutorial and still a have no result. I downloaded google play services from my sdk manager and imported google_play_services_lib correctly i guess. So i created a Google Maps API Key from Google Api Console using my packagename and my SHA1, which i found using cmd and also in eclipse in window>preferences>android>build, i got the same SHA1 in both ways so i think it's correct.
So i set my manifest like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.googlemapprova"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="11"
android:targetSdkVersion="21" />
<permission android:name="com.example.googlemapprova.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
android:protectionLevel="signature"/>
<uses-permission android:name="com.example.googlemapprova.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-feature
android:glEsVersion="0x00020000"
android:required="true"/>
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
android:value="my api key" />
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
in my layout file i created just a map fragment
<fragment
android:id="@+id/map"
class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignTop="@+id/textView1"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
I've changed android:name with class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment" because of a tutorial
And then my main
package com.example.googlemapprova;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.widget.Toast;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment;
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
GoogleMap googleMap;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
try {
// Loading map
initilizeMap();
initializeUiSettings();
initializeMapLocationSettings();
initializeMapTraffic();
initializeMapType();
initializeMapViewSettings();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
// initilizeMap();
}
private void initilizeMap() {
googleMap = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
// check if map is created successfully or not
if (googleMap == null) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Sorry! unable to create maps", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
public void initializeUiSettings() {
googleMap.getUiSettings().setCompassEnabled(true);
googleMap.getUiSettings().setRotateGesturesEnabled(false);
googleMap.getUiSettings().setTiltGesturesEnabled(true);
googleMap.getUiSettings().setZoomControlsEnabled(true);
googleMap.getUiSettings().setMyLocationButtonEnabled(true);
}
public void initializeMapLocationSettings() {
googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
}
public void initializeMapTraffic() {
googleMap.setTrafficEnabled(true);
}
public void initializeMapType() {
googleMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_NORMAL);
}
public void initializeMapViewSettings() {
googleMap.setIndoorEnabled(true);
googleMap.setBuildingsEnabled(false);
}
}
i got the code in my main from a tutorial and modified it just a little, in this way i managed my app to not crash(if i don't use this code my app will crash). this is what i get i'm using a motorola moto g3 phone to try it So i tryed to download aLogcat on my phone from play store, but i get nothing on it, maybe i'm using it in the wrong way. this is the tutorial i used the most
Can someone help me to view a map on my app? I can't understand why it's not working I'm trying to get the Logcat now
