Google maps not showing in emulator

The google Maps are not showing in the emulator. I found the debug.keystore file and got the MD5 using this command line: $ keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android I then got an API from Google and inserted it into the AndroidManifes.xml file. What should I try next?

Sorry, I meant to say: I put the API in the res/values/strings.xml file

Where should the maps.xml file live?

There's also a part in the readme file where you have to un-comment/delete a section in order to get it working.

As recommended by Mark, I watched your video. In the Read Me, you should really include that bit from the video about updating the API in res/layout/screen_locationmap.xml file. I never got it to work in the Emulator; but when I published it, the maps functioned beautifully. Thanks for all your hard work and effort. I really appreciate what you are doing for our community.
