How to check if my Android release.keystore is correct?

I received a release.keystore from the developer that was working previously on the project. I created a custom debug.keystore based on release.keystore to test the app. Some of the functionality of the app is broken comparing to the app on the Google Play which makes me think I might not have a valid key. For example Maps don't display correctly (gray square).

Is there a way to find out if I have a right key, that the previous app was uploaded with? thank you!

don't create a debug key from it. Just sign the app with the regular key and then test it.

I believe that the maps API is tied to your release key so it will not work in your app unless you sign with your release key
