Android Google Maps Failed to find style 'mapViewStyle' in current theme

When adding a google map view (I extended a MapView, used the xml editor to add it to the Activity, and added my google maps api key to the layout xml file manually)

My permissions allow Internet in the manifest file

What i'm wondering, is in the xml editor i get the error "Failed to find style 'mapViewStyle' in current theme" but i seem to have everything set up correctly.


I had the same problem when I try to build a simple app, following the Android MapView tutorial.

The app showed this exception in AVD for the file file main.xml :

Failed to find style 'mapViewStyle' in current theme

At last I found that there is a mistake in file AndroidManifest.xml :

The element <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" /> should be a child of the <application> element, not immediately within <manifest> .

Hope this was any help to you.


For what its worth...

  • My experience is that I got this in the UI Designer, but it did not break the build . I assume it is an Eclipse / Android SDK bug.

  • My app has been working perfectly on the store until I upgraded my SDK to version 20. It leads me to believe this is something to do with the SDK.

  • Of the various answers to this question (and duplicates) I found, none of them helped:

  • not changing the target SDK

  • not clean & build

  • not declaring a style manually


  • Finally, these questions are all duplicates (and mostly useless as confirmed by Ewok):

    I had the same issue when creating a Google Map view that worked well until I cleaned the project after placing a new icon.png in a drawable folder (Project >> Clean). Many times the cleaning process will install an import statement at the top program code, which overrides the R.java file in your project. The solution was to simply remove the following import statement:

    import android.R

    after the project was saved and rebuilt without issue.
