Google Maps Android v2 Authorization failure
android, authorization, google-maps-api-2
Solution
Solved it.Very stupid mistake on my part.Used wrong api key.Was using the api key for the signed app.Replaced it with api key for debug keystore and solved the problem.
Problem
I am testing the sample google code on an actual device having 2.3.6.I thought it might be the problem with the key ,so I created different key on a different account through Google's API Console.Still the same problem "Google Maps Android API-Authorization Failure". Here is the log: ``` 12-07 10:31:30.476: D/dalvikvm(17791): DexOpt: couldn't find field Landroid/content/res/Configuration;.smallestScreenWidthDp 12-07 10:31:30.484: W/dalvikvm(17791): VFY: unable to resolve instance field 24 12-07 10:31:30.484: D/dalvikvm(17791): VFY: replacing opcode 0x52 at 0x0012 12-07 10:31:30.484: D/dalvikvm(17791): VFY: dead code 0x0014-0018 in Lcom/google/android/gms/common/GooglePlayServicesUtil;.b (Landroid/content/res/Resources;)Z 12-07 10:31:30.718: D/dalvikvm(17791): GC_CONCURRENT freed 197K, 46% free 3063K/5639K, external 408K/517K, paused 3ms+4ms 12-07 10:31:30.789: W/dalvikvm(17791): Unable to resolve superclass of Lmaps/a/du; (411) 12-07 10:31:30.789: W/dalvikvm(17791): Link of class 'Lmaps/a/du;' failed 12-07 10:31:30.789: W/dalvikvm(17791): Unable to resolve superclass of Lmaps/a/ej; (2363) 12-07 10:31:30.789: W/dalvikvm(17791): Link of class 'Lmaps/a/ej;' failed 12-07 10:31:30.789: W/dalvikvm(17791): Unable to resolve superclass of Lmaps/j/k; (2379) 12-07 10:31:30.789: W/dalvikvm(17791): Link of class 'Lmaps/j/k;' failed 12-07 10:31:30.789: E/dalvikvm(17791): Could not find class 'maps.j.k', referenced from method maps.y.ae.a 12-07 10:31:30.789: W/dalvikvm(17791): VFY: unable to resolve new-instance 3571 (Lmaps/j/k;) in Lmaps/y/ae; 12-07 10:31:30.789: D/dalvikvm(17791): VFY: replacing opcode 0x22 at 0x007d 12-07 10:31:30.820: D/dalvikvm(17791): VFY: dead code 0x007f-008f in Lmaps/y/ae;.a (Landroid/view/LayoutInflater;Lcom/google/android/gms/maps/GoogleMapOptions;Z)Lmaps/y/ae; 12-07 10:31:31.281: D/dalvikvm(17791): GC_CONCURRENT freed 297K, 46% free 3222K/5959K, external 408K/517K, paused 3ms+4ms 12-07 10:31:31.523: D/dalvikvm(17791): GC_EXTERNAL_ALLOC freed 227K, 45% free 3397K/6087K, external 431K/517K, paused 52ms 12-07 10:31:31.648: I/System.out(17791): 0 12-07 10:31:31.734: D/dalvikvm(17791): GC_CONCURRENT freed 188K, 43% free 3531K/6151K, external 544K/1029K, paused 5ms+4ms 12-07 10:31:32.125: D/libEGL(17791): loaded /system/lib/egl/libGLES_hgl.so 12-07 10:31:32.132: D/BRCM_EGL(17791): eglCreateContext() context: 0xd7090, VC context 1, Thread 17810 12-07 10:31:32.148: D/BRCM_EGL(17791): eglCreateWindowSurface() surface: 0xd70d0, VC surface: 1, Thread: 17810 12-07 10:31:32.148: D/BRCM_EGL(17791): eglMakeCurrent(0xd7090, 0xd70d0, 0xd70d0) Thread: 17810 12-07 10:31:32.859: E/Google Maps Android API(17791): Authorization failure. ``` Here's is my manifest: ``` <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.smartapps4u.googlemapslib" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0" > <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" android:targetSdkVersion="16" /> <uses-feature android:glEsVersion="0x00020000" android:required="true"/> <permission android:name="com.smartapps4u.googlemapslib.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE" android:protectionLevel="signature"/> <uses-permission android:name="com.smartapps4u.googlemapslib.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/> <uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES"/> <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" /> <application android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@style/AppTheme" > <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY" android:value="My API key"/> <activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:label="@string/title_activity_main" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> </application> </manifest> ``` Any help would be appreciated.
