Hi there,

I'm trying to get the Map demos working, as provided in the Google API
sample projects.  I am using AVDs and have tried with versions 8, 10
and 11 and get the same issue.

I've generated my own debug key and added to the project.  I can see
the map on app start up, and can zoom in etc - so I am getting the map
tiles, fine.
Yes - I have the correct permissions and  library set in the Manifest
file (as per samples).

But, I cannot set a location on the map, either via DDMS or Telnet.  I
see the following error in LogCat:
MapActivity : Couldn't get connection factory client

I've read numerous threads regarding this issue, but they always seem
to be as a result of a bad API key; which I do not have, as I am
retrieving map tiles.

So I created my own project to test this further, and am executing the
following code on initialisation of my map:

myLocationOverlay = new MyLocationOverlay(this, mapView);
        mapView.getOverlays().add(myLocationOverlay);
        myLocationOverlay.enableCompass();
        myLocationOverlay.enableMyLocation();
        Log.i("funkatron: ", "ABOUT TO CALL RUN ON FIRST FIX");
        myLocationOverlay.runOnFirstFix(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                String loc = "we have a location, executing AnimateTo().
"+myLocationOverlay.getMyLocation().toString();
                Log.i("funkatron:",loc);
 
mapController.animateTo(myLocationOverlay.getMyLocation());
            }
        });

I see my first log statement, but never the second, and "MapActivity :
Couldn't get connection factory client" is written to LogCat at that
point.

I have read that there were issues with SDK v8 emulators, so I have
tried with v10 and 11 - but still no joy.
I have NOT yet tried this on an actual device - will do soon.

Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated - it's really
baffling me  ;)

cheers
