Question

Answer 1

I have compiled your code and I get maps working. I think I discovered the problem: wrong credentials got cached.

The first time I ran your code, it was using wrong credentials. Although I have fixed them, I was still getting the "authorization failure" error. Then I simply uninstalled the app, ran it again and then maps got working.

Apparently Google Maps credentials are cached somewhere. Simpling running the app again does not overwrite them.

That also explains why I only got maps working after running my other app using Debug As (not Run As)...

I had the same problem as you and I got maps working only when running the application on a real device through "Debug As > Android Application".

I'm a newbie in Android development. I don't know if this is just the way things are or we are missing something :)

Please see already posted answer on SO, it will definitely help you..

Need to import project from \extras\google\google_play_services\libproject\google-play-services_lib

Update :

Make sure your device have Google Play Services apk installed and its version should be > 2
