Answer 1

The else of this part:

            if(isChecked){
                boolean success = mGoogleMap.setMapStyle(new MapStyleOptions(getResources()
                        .getString(R.string.style_json)));

                if (!success) {
                    Log.e("TabFragmentMap", "Style parsing failed.");
                }
            }else{
                // What goes here?
                // mGoogleMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_NORMAL);
            }

You need to uncomment it

            else {
                // What goes here?
                mGoogleMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_NORMAL);
            }

Answer 2

In your else code, you are using setMapType while you should be using setMapStyle with a null parameter to clear the previously set styling, as mentioned here.

Set to null to clear any previous custom styling.

So, your code should go like this:

        @Override
        public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
            if(isChecked){
                boolean success = mGoogleMap.setMapStyle(new MapStyleOptions(getResources()
                        .getString(R.string.style_json)));

                if (!success) {
                    Log.e("TabFragmentMap", "Style parsing failed.");
                }
            }else{
                boolean success = mGoogleMap.setMapStyle(null);

                if (!success) {
                    Log.e("TabFragmentMap", "Removing style failed.");
                }
            }
        }

You should also return the Switch back to its previous checked state in both your if (!success) conditions and show a Toast to the users so they can understand what is happening.
