Change this

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

to

public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {

You need the below

<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />

In application tag its outside the tag

@hiddenhazard the meta tag is outside application tag. check developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/…. also mark the answer as accepted if it helps by clicking the tick next to the answer

@Cassini why not? what is the problem. If you do it right i see no reason why it won't work. this did not help is vague comment. does not help. I worked for the question poster.

@Raghunandan I used MapFragment inside activity. But is not working samsung duos 2.3.6. Getting InflateException Binary XML file Error inflating class fragment. Same code working for another devices. Xml code <fragment android:id="@+id/map" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" class="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment" />

@MuraliGanesan you need to use SupportMapFragment if you need map below api level 11

I got this error when the one of the permissions were missing in the AndroidManifest.xml file. adding the following permission solved the problem:

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

While this may answer the question, it would be best if you could provide some explanation for why it does so, for example what permissions were missing and how did you add the new ones.

@DavidPostill ok, I wrote the permission that caused the error.
