Do you have the location permission request in the code?
B4X:
Sub MapFragment1_Ready
    gmap = MapFragment1.GetMap   
    rp.CheckAndRequest(rp.PERMISSION_ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
    Wait For Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, Result As Boolean)
     gmap.MyLocationEnabled = Result
       Dim m1 As Marker = gmap.AddMarker(10, 30, "test")
       m1.Snippet = "This is the snippet"   
End Sub

a) Be sure you are using latest GoogleMaps library v2.02 from here.
b) Be sure set minSdkVersion="14" in your manifest file.
c) Be sure your android.geo.API_KEY

Your proyect is working fine here, with this changes.

we will try the android key now
if you did not used an Android key before than we have found the problem.
The Googlemap tutorial i linked in #2 explicitely mention that you need to create an Android key.
- Register your app in Google developer console: https://console.developers.google.com
You need to enable Google Maps Android API.
Then click on Credentials -> Create Credentials -> API Key -> Android Key.
You should get a key that looks like: AIzaSyCmFHamGE0O0BvxxxxxxxxXbTCSrjFVg-Q
