Google Maps not working trying for 3 days - google-maps-api-2

I have done everything according to this page:-https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/start
But i only see a blank grey page with Google logo and +/- sign. Some people say my API key is wrong but i have generated my API key a 100 times but still no luck. My code is the same as provided on Google developer page. I have given the link above. I am done trying everything now please someone help me.
This is my java code:-
package com.example.gps;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
}
This is my xml layout code:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<fragment xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/map"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"/>
This is my manifest code:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.gps"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >

</activity>
<meta-data

<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
</application>
</manifest>
Also it is working on my emlator but not my device

Finally found the solution people.
When you export your apk make sure you export it with debug.keystore.
i.e., The same SHA1 signature which you registered with Google API console.

AndroidStudio says Could not identify launch activity: Default Activity not found"

The app works as expected. - it is only the IDE that apparently fail to upload/run it.

In your "intent-filter" tag you should have this code
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />

My App keep crashing and display "app has stopped working" I dont understand the trace in logcat

but I still keep getting the exception in debug mode. What am I doing wrong?
From API 23 (Android 6.0) it is not sufficient to declare permisions in Manifest.xml. You have to request them in runtime as described here.
Go to your applications inside your phone and make sure your have location enabled and have it turned on.
In you oncreate method call:
checkPermission();
public void checkPermission() {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {
if (checkSelfPermission(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && checkSelfPermission(android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
//
} else {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION,}, 1);
}
}
}

Error while generating APK

I'm trying to generate an APK from Android Studio for publish it on the play store.
Now when i generate the APK i got this error:
I can start the app but "Generate APK" not work and for avoid this error i copy my Facebook App Id from my string.xml to my manifest:
android:value="2132153153153535"
Instead of:
android:value="#string/facebook_app_id"
Now i can generate the APK but when i launch my app from the playstore i got this error:
Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.stable.giamma.sushichallenge/com.stable.giamma.sushichallenge.MenuActivity}: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Both context and applicationId must be non-null
That i can resolve by reversing the modify that i just did.
But if i do so i can't generate the APK again.....
What is the right way for handle the "facebook app id" and generate the APK?
p.s: i have 2 string.xml (one is for english and the other for italian language) dunno if create some problem...
Here is my manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.asd.appname">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

o
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/asd"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:largeHeap="true"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<meta-data
android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId"
android:value="#string/facebook_app_id" /> //THIS IS THE STRING THAT I MODIFY FOR AVOID THE FIRST ERROR
<activity

android:label="#string/app_name"

</activity>
<activity
android:name="com.asd.Leaderboard"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.NoActionBar"></activity>
</application>
I added:
tools:ignore="ManifestResource"
The correct code is:
<meta-data
android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId"
android:value="#string/facebook_app_id"
tools:ignore="ManifestResource"/>
Now seems work I found this stackoverflow post helpful: link

How to enable a smartphone sized Android application on larger screens

My problem can be summed up in one picture which can be see in this location:
http://imgur.com/qOiyl
The application had originally been developed for smartphone, and on a small resolution there is no problem, the application fills the whole screen. But in tablet, as you can see, only the size corresponding to a smartphone is used.
I guess that this means that somewhere the height and width values are hard set. But I cannot see where! Where is it possible to set height and width for all the application (all activities are doing the same thing).
Here is my AndroidManifest.xml :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.dombox.app"
android:versionCode="11"
android:versionName="2.0.4" >
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS" >
</uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" >
</uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" >
</uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" >
</uses-permission>
<application
android:icon="#drawable/icon"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<activity
android:name=".activity.DomboxHome"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<uses-library android:name="android.test.runner" />
<activity
android:name=".activity.list.ZonesList"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="Dombox.MENU" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".activity.list.EquipementsList"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".activity.PullToRefreshActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
</activity>
<activity android:name="org.achartengine.GraphicalActivity" />
<instrumentation

</LinearLayout>
Do you have any idea?
I think your app is running in compatibility mode, Put this piece of code just before the <application> tag in your manifest file.
<supports-screens android:largeScreens="true"
android:normalScreens="true" android:smallScreens="true"
android:anyDensity="true" android:xlargeScreens="false" />
Hope that works,
I think you need to set android:weightSum="100" to your LinearLayout
You can try to add
<supports-screens android:xlargeScreens="true" />
in AndroidManifest.xml. This tells the system that your app is compatible with xlarge screens (tablets), and that your app should be stretch to fill screen.
Yes you are obviously missing one of the important stuff.
There is no supports-screen tag in your manifest file, so by default "normalScreens" is set to true and all others false.
Here is the link for more info on Supporting Multiple Resolution.
