You are not limited to Google's own MapView, there are third party Android libraries too:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Android It seems that Google treat Android MapView updates as a very low priority, see this thread: https://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_frm/thread/faeeb399c5ed5b5f/76b4fb699986825c?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=google+maps# Post #5 says: "The Google Maps add-on has essentially been abandoned. It has not received an update of any sort in several years now. I would think that the tiles would be updated server-side, but apparently that is also not a concern for Google at this time. Not much you can do about this. " I'm using OSMDroid: http://code.google.com/p/osmdroid/ It also lacks many features that the javascript API v3 has, but it's source code is available and you can (in theory) create whatever features you require. It's PathOverlay class can be used to draw a Polyline or Polygon. http://android.martinpearman.co.uk/osmdroid/documentation/native_android_library/index.html?org/osmdroid/views/overlay/PathOverlay.html Use it's setPaint() method to set the Paint.Style: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/Paint.Style.html I don't know if the Google MapView has an equivalent to PathOverlay.
