In my actual project I need to draw a MapView with a given running/walking/cycling path on top of it.

I don’t need the current position so I added an overlay just for the path (no MyLocationOverlay). The path is painted but I don’t see the Map in the emulator – only the grey tiles. The apiKey is set in the layout (MapView) and INTERNET permission is set in the Manifest.

So I’m wondering if I need more. Is it the emulator simply not working well (I do have 3G and 2 bars in the emulator) or do I need something else? Do I need to build an additional overlay or add additional permissions (xxxLOCATION) to the Manifest.

    You’re describing what what I’ve only seen when I’ve got the map key wrong. Did you generate it yourself? If you’re running the unsigned .apk in the emulator you should be following these steps.
