Please Add this in your Manifest section .

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

You are misisng a meta tag in your manifest file which is a child of application tag

<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"   
android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />

You don't require

<permission
android:name="com.example.testmapact2.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
android:protectionLevel="signature" />
<uses-permission 
android:name="com.example.testmapact.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE" />

Also require

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>

If you want to display map read the docs. I don't see a MapFragment anywhere in your layout posted

You logcat clearly said:

 Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: The meta-data tag in your app's AndroidManifest.xml does not have the right value.  Expected 5077000 but found 0.  You must have the following declaration within the <application> element:     <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version" android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />
  07-24 11:23:34.259: E/AndroidRuntime(4433):     at com.google.android.gms.common.GooglePlayServicesUtil.x(Unknown Source)
  07-24 11:23:34.259: E/AndroidRuntime(4433):     at com.google.android.gms.common.GooglePlayServicesUtil.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(Unknown  Source)
  07-24 11:23:34.259: E/AndroidRuntime(4433):     at com.google.android.gms.internal.hc.connect(Unknown Source)
  07-24 11:23:34.259: E/AndroidRuntime(4433):     at com.google.android.gms.location.LocationClient.connect(Unknown Source)

You should add Google play service version as <meta-data> tag under <application> tag in your manifest.xml

  <meta-data
        android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
        android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />

also add below permissions in your manifest.xml

  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
