Hello, I have a map activity that I created following the Hello MapView example. But when I try loading the activity, I get only grey tiles and no actual map tiles. In the DDMS I see the "Couldnt get connection factory client" exception. I am using Emulator with Device API version as 8 and using Android 2.2.
It seems a lot of people on this forum has that issue and it has been pointed that this results in either the wrong map key or internet connectivity issue. I did try browse google maps on emulator and it worked fine. So internet shouldnt be an issue. For the maps key I did get the MD5 certificate and confirmed the API key. I dont know of any other way to find that the key is valid or not. Here is what I used to get the certificate: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_22\bin>keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keys tore "c:\documents and settings\apurvag\.android\debug.keystore" - storepass andr oid -keypass android Here is my manifest file <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="timmons.android.map" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0"> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/ app_name"> <activity android:name=".LoginScreen" android:label="@string/app_name"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> <activity android:name=".MainMenu" android:label="@string/main_menu_title" android:theme="@style/GlobalTheme"> </activity> <activity android:name=".GPSScreen" android:label="@string/gps_title" android:theme="@style/GlobalTheme"> </activity> <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps"/> </application> </manifest> Any help on this one is highly appreciated.
