Why Google Map is not displaying on Android Emulator?

Question

I have everything installed and prepared in order to run a google map on android Genymotion Emulator. But for some reasons it doesn't get displayed. I understand that the program is able to navigate to that Map layout page, but the actual map doesn't appear there.

Looks like this:

I have tried with different Emulator, but they are the same.

What's wrong with this?

This is emulator specification:

enter image description here

fragment_map_detailed.XML:

<fragment 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"
    android:id="@+id/map"
    tools:context=".MapDemoActivity"
    android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"/>

[NOTE: This issue refers a part of my app. My App is big, I have used list-item view & dummyContent. For activity I have used master-overflow.]

You might not want to display your real mapkey here for own security reasons. — A Honey Bustard, Mar 29 '15 at 12:21
It's been like that ever since they don't really support OpenGL ES 2 too well, if i remember correctly. — EpicPandaForce, Mar 29 '15 at 13:16
Yes, when it works in ar real device, then you at least know it has to be a problem with the emulator and not with your app. — A Honey Bustard, Mar 31 '15 at 04:59

Please note that is against the licensing terms and conditions to install Google Play Services on Genymotion. – Simon Mar 29 '15 at 13:51
Kavis, it's installed. I download that corresponding Zip file and drag and dropped it. – Riyana Mar 29 '15 at 19:52

Download google play services from here or here. Then drag and drop the file to your emulator and you are ready to go.
