In order to use google Map Service,

Please visit code.google.com and get you ApiKey.

create a project there->go to services->Activate the Google Maps Android API v2. Then Create Key for your application.

Add the following permissions to your manifest.

 <uses-permission android:name="com.anchit.locationapi.maps.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

use

 <meta-data
            android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
            android:value="your_apikey" />

also add

<permission
        android:name="com.anchit.locationapi.maps.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
        android:protectionLevel="signature" />

    <uses-feature
        android:glEsVersion="0x00020000"
        android:required="true" />

inside your Application Tag in manifest.

Use

map = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map))
        .getMap();

in your code.

and set the other required properties. Now Run the Application.
