Android Question Google Map V2 and older Google Play Service

[mkh_fx]

I have a big problem
In my application, I have been using the latest version of Google Map V2
But the application does not run on mobile phones that have an older version of Google Play Service
Is there any way to run the app without having to update it
For example, the latest version Google Play gets inside the app
I found a solution but the error below is displayed

#AdditionalJar: com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps
    #AdditionalRes: C:\AndroidSDK\extras\google\google-play-services\libproject\google-play-services_lib\res, com.google.android.gms

This is the tutorial about google maps for your b4a version

The resources are no longer needed and google have changed the old playservice into smaller parts.

I guess you should follow this tutorial.

Hello,
Sorry to bother you, but I read your post and I have the same problem.
I have also followed DonManfred's instructions on ::
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/google-maps.63930/#post-404386
but I still do not solve the problem.
My Apk worked perfectly after upgrading Oreo Api 26.

Now updating google_play_services_8487000_r29 I have the same error:

#AdditionalJar: com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps
#AdditionalRes: D:\0000AndroidEstudio\gps8487000r29\google-play-services\libproject\google-play-services_lib\res, com.google.android.gms

If you managed to solve the problem, can you help me solve this puzzle ?
If you have solved it, could you tell me how?
Thank you very much in advance!!!

orry to bother you, but I read your post and I have the same problem.

you should start a new thread for YOUR issue.

I have also followed DonManfred's instructions on ::
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/google-maps.63930/#post-404386
but I still do not solve the problem.

No, you did not follow.
As stated the line

#AdditionalRes: D:\0000AndroidEstudio\gps8487000r29\google-play-services\libproject\google-play-services_lib\res, com.google.android.gms

should not be there

Now updating google_play_services_8487000_r29 I have the same error

This really sounds like you are reusing a old SDK Folder (and NOT using the B4A SDK Manager).

You can find the Setup-Instructions here. https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html
You also can watch this Video as it describes it clearly.

Start with a new Blank folder like you see in the Video.

I suggest to switch to B4A 8+
