I'm using google map v2 in my app but I get the blank page like this:
I did these stepe for adding this feature to my project.
First of all I updated google play services
Added
D:\AndroidSDK\extras\google\google_play_services\libproject\google-play-services_libas a dependency to my main project also the jar file in the libs folder of this path.
Activated google map android APIs v2 in Google APIs Console
Created new Android key and the result is:
After those steps I added the API key into the manifest file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.test"
android:versionCode="1"

<!-- Maps API needs OpenGL ES 2.0. -->

<meta-data

And finally this is my layout that I use
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<fragment
android:id="@+id/map"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"/>
</RelativeLayout>
