Answer 1

Check if u have the map key for the package name u provided while creating the map key. I was getting white map screen but i inserted map key of the package i was testing. Then i created new project but used the previous map key hence getting white screen.

Always remember you have to use new map key for each package you create. Genereally people forget that thing..(atleast i forgot to generate new key for new package).

Hope this will solve ur problems.

All the best

Most likely you're using release SHA1 fingerprint for generating Google API Key. Since you're using Eclipse for debugging your application is signed using debug key. So, you should use debug key instead to generate Google API key.

As soon as your app will be ready for publishing - just switch to release key.
