Update: I tried on an Android 7 device..same result.
Using a contribution by a community member I was able to show a map obtained attaching a .map file in DirAssets, but that's not the functionality I was used to.
So, again, what else can I check in order to display a Mapnik map starting from a given center point's coordinates?

I opt-in here. I am playing with a new wrap for OSMDROID (based on V6).
I can not get a Map visible. Scalebar, Copyrightoverlay, Compass, Minimap and mylocation overlay is working. But i do not get any Map shown using Mapnik Tilesource as of now.



I´m interested in any progress

Edit to add: I am using it on my Android 9 Device. Maybe this is the issue...
I´ll do a test with a older Device....

Hi Manfred,
at least I'm not alone..ehehe
I tried a few other sources but the result is always no map showing. Here's the code I used to list and select other sources (if you want to try on your porting)

B4X:

'Let's list available factory sources
Dim tsf As OSMDroid_TileSourceFactory
Dim abc() As OSMDroid_TileSource = tsf.GetTileSources
Log(abc.Length)
For i = 0 To abc.Length-1
   Log(abc(i).Name)
Next
'Let's try Mapnik
Dim tsource As OSMDroid_TileSource = tsf.GetTileSource("Mapnik")
MapView1.SetTileSource(tsource)

I am playing with a new wrap for OSMDROID (based on V6).

Click to expand...

Great news

B4X:

//5.6 and newer
   Configuration.getInstance().setUserAgentValue(BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID)

As we are not using a BuildConfig in the Buildchain with B4A i changed it to

B4X:

Configuration.getInstance().setUserAgentValue(ba.applicationContext.getPackageName());

In the wrapper initialization and NOW the Map is showing...

I also have the same problem. But I don't understand how to put the above solution in my program. I have put the line in Activity_Create but then I get an error message.
Can someone explain to me where I should put that rule?
Thanks in advance.

The Config class is added to OSMDroid in 5.6 so it is not available in the old OSMDroid library (3 and 4)

The code i posted is what i am using in the new wrapper i am developing.

Thanks for the quick response. Will OSMDroid 5.6 soon be available for B4A?

It depends on many objects which are not working as of now.
My Holiday (and having time to develop) ends this week. Unfortunately i can not release it as of now.
Don´t know when it gets released.

I´m working on a wrap for V6.1 btw
