If i understand your problem correctly its that when you try to move around the map its not doing anything.. It might help to add theese two lines inside your XML

android:enabled="true"
android:clickable="true"

It should look like this inside your snippet:

<com.google.android.maps.MapView
    android:id="@+id/mapview"
                 android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                 android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                 android:apiKey="0PmsmqKFKflNmHXD2fwG_vPWnR2gA-YB2QVlIQA"
                 android:layout_weight="2"
                 android:enabled="true"
                 android:clickable="true"
                 />

So try add the two lines inside your XML at the MapView object and it should work.
