Are you seeing any "permission denied" messages in the console while your application is running?
Another wild guess: Are you sure that the debug.keystore you are using to sign the app is the same one that you associated with the API Map Key? You can check out the SHA1 fingerprint of your APK by first unzipping it, and then typing : keytool -printcert -file META-INF/ANDROIDD.RSA at the command line. Maybe just compare the two fingerprints to ensure that are are the same.
