google maps api for android, getting SHA1 cert instead of MD5

Question

when i try to get the MD5 fingerprint using keytool, I get a SHA1 fingerprint instead and the google maps doesnt recognize it. How do I get the MD5 fingerprint?

Answer 1

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_04\bin>keytool.exe -V -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore "C:\Documents and Settings\IBM\.android\debug.keystore" -storepass android -keypass android

Consider your jdk-bin path in the first path place and your home user directory in the second path. For windows 7 it is like "C:\Users\username.android\debug.keystore"

Use the above command you will get all the keys.
