Hello! One of the prevalent issues in the forum is how to get map tiles to show up in the Android Emulator when developing your project. For the longest time I thought it just didn't work because I had almost zero luck with it. Well, today I sat down, got it working twice in a row, and made a video on how to do it. Hopefully this helps those of you still struggling with this feature. The tutorial is based on buzztouch v2, but should work equally well for v1.5. http://youtu.be/OGC9IuEMwBE As always, constructive feedback appreciated! Mark

Wow Nice Work Mark! Can't wait to see tiles..lol LA

Thanks...again!

Thank you very much, again... as a beginner, I thought it didn't work because I was doing something wrong, once again!! Gracias!!

...

Glad it's helping people! It's a continuous issue that it's nice to have resolved!

This was Awesome! I learned much more than just getting the maps working. Thanks for taking the time to produce the video Mark

Thanks for the props, @rossideas! Glad it helped out! Mark

Hi, I try to follow the instruction at video but stuck when notice google Map API v1 is not available. is there any tutorial for Google Map API V2?

Hey @nelaye, Google map API v1 still works but just depreciated. Check out this link to enter your MD5 fingerprint. Don't think there is a tutorial on version 2 yet. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/v1/maps-api-signup LA

hi LA, Thanks for super quick reply. It work now!!!! is there any Thanks button for me to appreciate your reply, LA? cheers

Your welcome @nelaye! Getting it to work is good enough. LA

Thanks, @LA!

hi, I'm back with problem. the google map display perfect at Emulator but not at my android device. I did refresh all data and wait till it come out but no success. should I keep waiting or is there any step I missing when install the .apk at my device. //sorry for newbie question as I'm totally zero with all of this Thanks

Does you device have a network connection? Did you sign the APK with the debug keystore, or the release one? If release, do you have the Google Maps API Key based on your release keystore? Do you have your device set to allow debugging? Mark

Hi Mark, 1. Yes 2. debug keystore. I use the same APK before I setup the Google Maps API Key. Do I need to get a new APK? 3. No, will look to find how to set my device for debugging.
