I have made an android app having a map which runs fine in emulator and mobile. And I signed it to upload in play store. I even zip aligned it. Then I uploaded it in the playstore. But the map doesn't load when I download it. I have been taking help from this site: http://developer.android.com/tools/publishing/app-signing.html#releasemode

I have also followed the following two sites: Google maps v2 doesn't showing after publishing in play market

Google maps, Google store publish

But still, it's not working. Its been a great problem for me. Please anyone, with a higher degree of knowledge, help me. I am in big trouble.

  • have you updated your SHA! key in GOOGLE API Console for your project after signed your app with private keystore?. – Yograj Shinde Sep 09 '14 at 04:59
  • Have you generated signed google map api key with SHA1 key and made google map feature available in google console? – GrIsHu Sep 09 '14 at 05:03

  • @mystic_knight are you sure about that you have updated your new SHA1 key in API console? verify it is given SHA1 in Api console is for debug keystore or for Private keystore with you have signe dyour .APK – Yograj Shinde Sep 09 '14 at 05:15
  • use this command and generate SHA1 key for your private keystore and verify is it same1 which you have provided in API Console? `keytool -list -v -keystore your_keystore_name with full path.keystore -alias your_alias_name` it will ask password enter that and then you will get SHA1 key – Yograj Shinde Sep 09 '14 at 05:36
  • Don't wait til the app is available in the Play Store to download it; test the apk after you have _prepared_ it for the Play Store upload (i.e. after signing with your release credentials). – ataulm Sep 09 '14 at 06:27

  • I ran into an issue with Amazon's LWA... wrote a blog entry about it. Maybe it will help: https://auri.net/2021/07/29/fix-app-no-longer-works-after-uploaded-to-google-play/ – Auri Rahimzadeh Aug 02 '21 at 15:59

  • Check the version of google play services library and update it to the latest version.
  • Then check the SHA1 key provided is the one you used to sign your application. If not provide the the correct key and try again.

Hope this can solve the issue.

The key you obtained and entered in the api console is for debugging purposes. You have to obtain sha1 key for the apk file from the Keystore file which you are using to digitally sign the apk

Procedure for obtaining SHA1 key for release mode

1) Go to the location where you have your 'keystore' file which you are using for digitally signing your application.

2) Open command window in that location. This can be done by 'shift+rightClick' and selecting the option 'Open Command Window here'

3) Use the following Command

keytool –v –list –keystore <name> -alias <aliasname>

where name- your keystore filename , aliasname - the alias name for the app

4) Then enter your keystore password

5) you will then get your sha1 keys along with other information. Use the key in the api console.
