Google Maps Android V2 application crashing

Question

I am working on a project that includes location detection using the GPS so I found this code that included a working .apk file but when I tried to compile it and run it, it always crashes. The application crashes when I try opening it in an emulator or on a Samsung S4 mobile. NB I've chosen the correct target which is API 17 and downloaded Google play services and included it in the library of the project.

Here is the code if anyone can help

Answer 1

Try moving all code that references your GoogleMap to onStart() or onResume(). The map in a map fragment isn't instantiated until after the fragment has gone through onCreateView ( link ). So, move the following to onStart():

mMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map))
        .getMap();
if(mMap != null) {
    mMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE);
    final LatLng CIU = new LatLng(35.21843892856462, 33.41662287712097);
    Marker ciu = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(CIU).title(
        "My Office"));
}

Also, the null check is necessary because the map will be null if google play services aren't installed, or the map isn't available for some other reason.
