Map activity in android
android, google-maps, mapactivity
Solution
Old MapView has been depreciated. You can't create a new Map key for publishing your app. You have to use new Google Maps for Android v2 API. Here's a link to the documents and example. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/start
