I have faced the same issue but finally i managed it in this way.
First of all i create separate MyMapFragment class which extends android.support.v4.app.Fragment
here is the onCreateView method
if (view != null) {
ViewGroup parent = (ViewGroup) view.getParent();
if (parent != null)
parent.removeView(view);
}
try {
view = (ViewGroup) inflater.inflate(R.layout.map_frag, container,
false);
setUpMapIfNeeded();
showMap(maptype);
} catch (Exception e) {
}
return view;
after that i create one xml file
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/my_fragmentView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
</LinearLayout>
You can add this layout file into your map layout place
and finally you have to add map view using this one in your activty class
MyMapFragment newFragment = new MyMapFragment (1);
FragmentTransaction transaction = getActivity()
.getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.add(R.id.my_fragmentView, newFragment);
transaction.commit();
It's working fine at my side i hope it helps you.
MapFragment Code is here
public class MapFragment extends Fragment {
private View view;
private GoogleMap mMapView;
public TouchableWrapper mTouchView;
LinearLayout map_fragg;
String userLat, userLon;
int maptype = 1;
Marker lastMarker = null;
public MapFragment() {
}
public MapFragment(int maptype) {
this.maptype = maptype;
}
@Override
public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
super.onAttach(activity);
getView();
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
if (container == null) {
return null;
}
if (view != null) {
ViewGroup parent = (ViewGroup) view.getParent();
if (parent != null)
parent.removeView(view);
if (mTouchView != null) {
mTouchView.removeAllViews();
}
}
try {
mTouchView = new TouchableWrapper(getActivity());
view = (ViewGroup) inflater.inflate(R.layout.map_frag, null, false);
view.setLayoutParams(new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));
map_fragg = (LinearLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.map_fragg);
mTouchView.addView(view);
setUpMapIfNeeded();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return mTouchView;
}
@Override

}
}

mMapView = ((SupportMapFragment) getActivity()
.getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map))
.getMap();
// Check if we were successful in obtaining the map.
if (mMapView != null) {
setUpMap();
showMap(maptype);
}
}
}
private void setUpMap() {
mMapView.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
}

}
}

} catch (Exception e) {
