Solution 1:

I guess you have mixed some of V1 and V2 features (like using <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" /> in manifest and use of GeoPoint etc. (https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/android-developers/CGF5X1HMLuY)

Try with the sample code below :

MActivity.java

   public class MActivity extends FragmentActivity{

private GoogleMap map;
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_map);

        map = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map))
                .getMap();

        double lat = 6.796396;
        double longi = 79.877823;
        final LatLng HAMBURG = new LatLng(lat,longi);
        Marker hamburg = map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(HAMBURG)
                .title("Hamburg"));
        map.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(HAMBURG, 15));


    }

Map.xml

   <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MapsActivity" >

<fragment
    android:id="@+id/map"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment" />
  </RelativeLayout>

Remove <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" /> from manifest.


Solution 2:

Running google map v2 on emulator has several steps, so I prepared step by step tutorial to show how you can use google map android v2 on emulator(android 4.2.2) have a look at to my blog: http://umut.tekguc.info/en/content/google-android-map-v2-step-step


Solution 3:

Actually I've been adding a different project's .jar file & This helped me to correctly add a external .jar to the project.Now I don't get "unresolved type" error.. Thank you everyone for pointing me to the correct direction you people are awesome.
