Whoo…after scratching ma head for so long atlast i got the solution
first i did debugging with real device using DDMS following its documentation which is fabulous then i discovered the following error
and then after few more lines of code there was another error which was eye catching
and then i realised that my api key code is a child of manifest not application which the above error pointed out and then i rectified my manifest to following
and then it went like a zoom and everythng worked just perfectly…Debugging with real device helped a lot…
