You miss the -v parameter in the command line (for verbose i assume). without the -v only give you the SHA1 check-sum. with the -v give you all of them: MD5, SHA1, SHA256 and all info about the certificate.

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_04\bin>keytool.exe -V -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore "C:\Documents and Settings\IBM\.android\debug.keystore" -storepass android -keypass android

Consider your jdk-bin path in the first path place and your home user directory in the second path. For windows 7 it is likeC:\Users\username\.android\debug.keystore

Use the above command you will get all the keys.

The google API key is here.

The above answers show how to obtain the md5 key but newer versions of the jdk generate more keys and display the SHA1 as default. To obtain the md5 key for 1.7 and later:

1 go to command line 2 go to dir of keystore C:\Users\Gideon.android 3 enter this command keytool -v -list -keystore "C:\Users\Gideon.android\debug.keystore" android

4 look for the code with MD5: mine was:

For developing google maps application in android,the first step is to get Google APIs(containing maps.jar). If its not available in your Eclipse IDE,you can download it in eclipse by going to windows>Android sdk manager>...then select the required Google API. Create a new AVD with the target as google APIs this is where you run the google maps application.

To get MD5 fingerprint run the following command in cmd

keytool.exe -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore “C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.android\debug.keystore” -storepass android -keypass android

before executing this command, 1.change the path of cmd to keytool.exe's location which is generally inside program files>java>bin 2.inside double quotes enter the path to your android keystore,which can be found in eclipse..windows>preferences>android>build

while tring this the issues that i faced were 1.keytool error: java.lang.RuntimeException: Usage error, and is not a legal command----because of unwanted spaces 2.tried to insert -v command for verbose

After getting MD5,go to the following link http://code.google. com/android/maps-api-signup.html and sign in with your google account.to obtain the key which you can use in your application.

http://mobiforge.com/developing/story/using-google-maps-android refer this link.

Use JDK version 1.6 instead of 1.7 because 1.7 generates the fingerprint with SHA1 by default.
