Above solutions should solve your problem  If these do not  make sure you update your Android sdk using SDK manager and install the latest lib project and then repeat the above steps again

I checked off Google API as project build target    That is irrelevant  as that is for Maps V1  and you are trying to use Maps V2      I included  jar file for maps by right-clicking on my project  went to build path and added external archive locating it in my SDK  android-sdk-windows add-ons addon google apis google inc 8 libs maps   This is doubly wrong   First  never manually modify the build path in an Android project  If you are doing that  at best  you will crash at runtime  because the JAR you think you put in your project  via the manual build path change  is not in your APK  For an ordinary third-party JAR  put it in the libs  directory of your project  which will add it to your build path automatically and add its contents to your APK file   However  Maps V2 is not a JAR  It is an Android library project that contains a JAR  You need the whole library project   You need to import the android-sdk-windows add-ons addon google apis google inc 8 project into Eclipse  then add it to your app as a reference to an Android library project

Note that once you have imported the google-play-services lib project into your IDE  you will also need to add google-play-services jar to  Project  Properties  Java build path  Libraries  Add JARs

I too had the same issue  Got it resolved by compiling with the latest sdk tool versions  Play services build tools etc   Sample build gradle is shown below for reference       apply plugin   com android application    android       compileSdkVersion 23     buildToolsVersion  23 0 1       defaultConfig           applicationId  com abc bcd          minSdkVersion 14         targetSdkVersion 23         versionCode 1         versionName  1 0            buildTypes           release               minifyEnabled false             proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile  proguard-android txt     proguard-rules pro                     dependencies       compile fileTree dir   libs   include      jar        compile  com google android gms play-services 8 4 0      compile  com android support appcompat-v7 23 0 1

Supposing that you are using ECLIPSE   Right click PROJECT PROPERTIES ANDROID  If you have a version of ANDROID checked  you must change it to a GOOGLE API  Choose a version of GOOGLE APIS compatible with your project s target version

In Android Studio goto  File -  Project Structure    -  Notifications  last entry  -  check Google Cloud Messaging  Wait a few seconds and you re done    import com google android gms gcm GcmListenerService should be resolved properly

Another way is to let Eclipse do the import work for you  Hover your mouse over the com google android gms import that can not be resolved and towards the bottom of the popup menu  select the Fix project setup    option as below  Then it ll prompt to import the google play services library  Select that and you should be good to go

From my experience  Eclipse     Added google-play-services lib as a project and referenced it from my app  Removed all jars added manually  Added google-play-services jar in the  libs  folder of my project  I had some big issues because I messed up with the Order and Export tab  so the working solution is  in this order   src  gen  Google APIs  Android Dependencies  Android Private Libraries  only this one checked to be exported

once again Make sure these 2 things happen correctly nothing more than that   FOR ECLIPSE USERS   1  copy the jar file from --  C  Users your-username  android-sdks extras google google play services libproject google-play-services lib libs  google-play-services jar   2  Right Click Project--  Build Path -  Add External Archive-  google-play-services jar
