google map android API V2 failure

Trying to add a Map into an Android application, I already created the API key and enabled Google Map Android V2; I added the permission, the google play services version and the API key in the manifest file. I also added the Google Plays Services lib in the project.

But when I launch the application it stops, I don't know why, I think it's something that has to do with the permissions, but just to make sure, I copy/Past the permissions as suggested by the Google Developpers website showing us how to add the map. But like I said, I'm not sure if this si the real deal. Here's my codes:

Manifest file: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="usthb.appusthb"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="11"
        android:targetSdkVersion="19" />


<!-- ============  PERMISSIONS: ============ -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES"/>
<!-- The following two permissions are not required to use
     Google Maps Android API v2, but are recommended. -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>

 <!-- ============ END PERMISSIONS =============== -->
            <!-- this will notify the user that the device needs OpenGL ES version 2 to display the map (as recomanded from the google developpers website)-->
    <uses-feature
        android:glEsVersion="0x00020000"
        android:required="true"/>
    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar" >
<!-- ====   google play services version:  ====  -->
    <meta-data

         android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />

        <activity
            android:name="usthb.appusthb.MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

<!-- Google Map Android API V2 === ==== ===  API key:  -->
        <meta-data
            android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
            android:value="AIzaSyCfqonheoI9OG_REcsnl7-xgmpiFwu692I"/>

    </application>

</manifest>

MainLayout:

<?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.MapFragment"/>

MainActivity: 

public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        Toast.makeText(this, "sup", 2000).show();
    }
}

Change this

 android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"/>

to

 android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"/>

since your min sdk is 11. So you need to use SupportMapFragment. For 12 and above use MapFragment.
