This video is the 30th in a web series that I am creating to help you learn Android programming so you can create apps and eventually how to learn to write games for android phones. I want to explain things in a way that everyone can understand, even if you have no experience with Java, XML, C++, OpenGL, or as a matter of fact, any other programming language.




If you do have a lot of experience with programming, these first videos will be really slow for you, but my goal is to get everyone sprinting, but for now we have learn to crawl.

not working for me.

i have an error in logcat:

MapActivity  Couldn't get connection factory client

and nothing shown on the emulator!!

do u have any idea what's going on and solution for this???

[CornboyzAndroid]

@TheTangkarl most likely it has to do with the api key, check out the next tutorial to see if you can get the map working with the debugging api key.
