Android - Google Maps integration empty grid

Question

I have tried to use Google Maps API in my app. I have made key fingerprint, inserted into app, I tried to see some map (doesn't matther what map is it now), but all I see is a empty grid. I have in manifest

< uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" />

I have my build AVD targeted at Gogle Api's, and all I see is the empty grid. Do you know, what can be wrong? My next thought was about to use build maps and link to them from my current app, when I will additionally show my position. But is it possible?

Manifest:
