Using a PC and Eclipse 2. Emulating Android Virtual Device 1.6, API level 4 What I have done: Got my android debug key and followed the instructions in the README.txt to enter the values, though I did enter the debug key into both string values. I did not create a release key (I couldn't figure out how to create or sign the apk file) When I try to view the map I get the error: Maps not configured properly (which shows me I uncommented that portion correctly) Any suggestions would be appreciated. Many thanks, Scott Title Comments Greetings all, I'm currently trying to get the location map to work: 1. Using a PC and Eclipse 2.

If you can, connect your device. If you cannot, we'll help you struggle through ;-) If you're seeing the 'Maps Not Configured Properly' message, this means you HAVE NOT uncommented the code correctly. Maybe we're confusing each other. Have a look at Act_ActivtyBase.java in the /src folder. Scroll down to around line 280 to the showLocationMap method - is this uncommented or commented?
