[android-developers] Re: How to add Google Maps library, Maps to the Android 1.5 version device?
Hi all, I'm really interested in this subject since I'm developing an app for the google challenge and I'd like to know if it will be possible to simply (as in plain old java) include the jars of the maps plugin as it was written by me (after all why not do it this way?). This way any device with the actual 1.5 version could install it... Does anyone know where the difficulty comes from (since I'm focused on the proper app developement I really can't take a look at that, so if you already experienced, can you just tell me if it's possible): My problem is that since users have to vote about which applications they love in the google challenge, I will have very few votes even if my app had chances, only because there is only few hackers around who installed the maps plugin on their deveices.

Hi tstanly You mean I need to sign the Maps.apk again? Maps.apk is from my G1 dev phone and I want to install it to another hardware(dev board) Is it possible to porting Google Map to other targets than G1? I've been searching solution for days. Your help is much appreciated!!

Hi Delta I know how to add google maps library. Actually, I'm still finding the way to put google map application into my dev board.

[android-developers] Re: How to add Google Maps library, Maps to the Android 1.5 version device?
Hi Delta Thanks, I'm a new to android development. Can u please point out the way to add Maps to system image accurately? To install on a real dev device, I've started the following procedure, 1. adb install Maps.apk 2. adb push com.google.android.maps.jar /system/framework/ 3. adb push com.google.android.maps.xml /etc/permissions/ But I found that Maps application is still invisible.

One for the key you sign and upload apps to Android Market, and another if you want to use it against the automatically generated key that is used if you run an app from eclipse etc? Although I've been meaning to copy the production key over the top of the dev key so I only need to worry about one maps API key and it will work regardless of how I launch the app with maps embedded in it. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

Hello, where can I find those 3 files? If it's possible, can you send me those files over email? I am currently stuck with an HTC Magic with no Google Maps on it and would like to install it myself.
