Couldn't get connection factory

Postby magpor » Tue Feb 17, 2009 12:58 pm

Ok so I just started developing for the Android. Im currently setting up a simple map application and my final goal is to get augmented reality up and running.


When I run the application I get a "Couldn't get connection factory" in the log.

1. What do I need to do to get a connection factory when running on the simulator. As I understand it I need to use the DDMS development tools to send coordinates to the application to make it move right

2. Why do I get this errror? I fetched a API key with the debug certificate etc but when I try to use MyLocationOverlay I get the error. 02-17 11:58:05.509: ERROR/LocationManagerService(55): java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: provider=network
