google-maps-android-api-2

I found lots of questions regarding this - and I am almost ashamed to ask it myself. But no matter how hard I try, I simple do not get the Maps API running at all!

So if you are trying to include any animation using GIF images, it will not be supported and only a single image from the GIF will be shown as the icon. An option to achieve changing marker image is to programatically remove() the marker after a certain time and

I spent a long time tonight trying to figure out how to get my Google Map that worked in the debug version of my Android application to work in the release version. There were a few different problems that came up. Some fragments of Stack Overflow posts helped, but I thought it would be useful to list more detail for the whole process, including the problems I had, which were: 1) How/where do you specify something different for your release version? 2) How do you run the keytool executable needed to get the release version fingerprint? 3) Why was I getting the "keystore file exists but is
