I have a different setup than the tutorials I have been seeing for the Android
SDK. I am trying to setup a virtual device that is compatible with the Google
Maps API. I have three areas I need to fill out: the device and the target (the
tutorials only show a target) and the CPU.
I have put Google APIs – API Level 17 as the target but I don’t know what to put for device to get it to work.
I don’t know what to put for device and CPU to get it to work.
Here is my log output:

I’ve just experienced this issue because of a wrong usage of the AVD creator.
If you select the AVD Target before selecting the Device, the target will be overwrite with the device default Target.
I thought i had created a Google Apis 17 target, when actually it was a Android 14 without google maps.
I would double check the AVD configuration just to make sure you didn’t fall into the same issue.
