Android google maps v2 unknown error

Question

well I try to make this sample at he developer page

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/start?hl=tr#obtain_a_google_maps_api_key

this is my java code:

package com.example.mapdemo;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    }
}

and xml code:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <fragment xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              android:id="@+id/map"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent"
              android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"/>

but if I try to do this on REAL DEVICE, Log cat says:

This video helped me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fitjMdZ8jqM I think The problem is Debug.keystore or google play service because I changed them, the problem vanished.

Also I wrote the solution on my webpage:

Answer 1

It seems that your using a wrong pattern for inflating.

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity 
ComponentInfo{com.restroomgames.urfarehberi/com.restroomgames.urfarehberi.MainActivity}:
android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #2: Error inflating class fragmen

Answer 2

You can't test Google Maps in emulator. It does not have Google Play Services.
