How can i use MapBox on Android [closed]

Answer 1

OSMDroid is terribly documented, but the way they designed it makes it very flexible and self-explanitory if you look at the implementable methods. Here is how you use Mapbox tiles with OSMDroid as of January 2015.

    mvMap = (MapView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.mapview);

    String mapCode = "mapbox.streets";
    final String accessToken = "myAccessToken";

    OnlineTileSourceBase customTileSource = new XYTileSource("MapBoxSatelliteLabelled",
            ResourceProxy.string.mapquest_aerial, 1, 19, 256, ".png", new String[]{
            "http://a.tiles.mapbox.com/v4/" + mapCode + "/",
            "http://b.tiles.mapbox.com/v4/" + mapCode + "/",
            "http://c.tiles.mapbox.com/v4/" + mapCode + "/",
            "http://d.tiles.mapbox.com/v4/" + mapCode + "/"}){

        @Override
        public String getTileURLString(MapTile aTile) {
            String str = super.getTileURLString(aTile) + "?access_token=" + accessToken;
            return str;
        }
    };

    TileSourceFactory.addTileSource(customTileSource);

    mvMap.setTileSource(customTileSource);

Quick tip: If you're using Android Studio, use break points to get the value of any variable. This helps with debugging and understanding unfamiliar code. That's how I figured out that getTileURLString() returns the full URL of the tile.
