I am trying to release my app, but having a problem with google maps. The app contains an activity (MapActivity) that displays a map. When running in debug mode, the map works fine. I signed my app in release mode, and got SHA1. I created a new android key on Google console as required (SHA1;packageName). Got the API Key
In my App, I referenced a copy of google-play-services-lib as required. I am using ADT.
map.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<fragment xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/map"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment" />
MapActivity.java
public class MapActivity extends FragmentActivity {
private GoogleMap map;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.map);
map = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map))
.getMap();
}
AndroidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</application>
</manifest>
The only weird thing is that when I use keytool to get SHA1 I get "Signature Algorithm name: SHA256withRSA. can this be the problem? If yes, how can I change it?
I am kind of stuck here! Thank you for any help!
