Couldn't get connection factory client - fighting with Google Maps
- by iie
another day another problem, I finally managed to set up correctly google maps on my android application, or at least I thought I've done it, the whole progam starts, it even call the class which should "print" a map, but the only thing I can see is a grid with google label on it [ in the corner ]. I've checked the dalvik monitor and the error
E/MapActivity(394): Couldn't get connection factory client
occurs. I've find out on stackoverflow website that I should sent a gps signal or sth like this from dalvik monitor, and I've done it. Nothing happend, also I got the api key one more time, but nothing changed.
here is map.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
