'Codes Work in USA but not in China?
I am using A/Studio 2.2 My code unpacks a bundle of LatLng-parameters from a preceeding activity and displays the corresponding G/Map, works well in USA. Loved it. In USA, I used Android 6. I am in China now, I have downloaded Play Store, Google Maps, Gmail etc and installed them on a local popular low-end phone "vivo-v3m". When I installed G/Maps, a message flashed quickly across Android saying GPS is off and to authorize Google to download something to use Google maps, which I did. In China I am using Android 5.1 G/maps works well after that but my app is still not working. I strongly suspect I have to include or compile some G/Map APIs into the dependencies in the gradle. Before I start debugging why the code doesn't work here, I need to know whether it is some Google APIs I have to download to use G/Maps.

Google services is now blocked in China. So Google map is not working in china. use Baidu Maps for china

I was going through the same problem before while developing for a Chinese website and came across Baidu maps. After doing some analysis I found few links that give explanation on Baidu maps in English and steps to implement it. I hope it helps you.
