I get this when I try to showMap:

do you have any other plugins installed? mapkit shouldn't be using any Camera related stuff

I do have the cordova camera installed, but it works fine

*Problem Solved See Below

I am also getting an app crash in android. I'm not getting a specific error message just a message "Unfortunately, TestApp has stopped".

iPhone functions fine.

Any ideas?

Solution was to switch to the "Google API's" system image. I was using the wrong Android emulation settings. I needed to install and use the "Google API's" system image from the Android SDK and switch to it.

All is working now.

Hey jpmetcalf can you explain a bit more in detail? Where did you changed the Google APIs? What version?

Dec 08 '14 22:12 fidoboy

I am currently using Android 4.4.2 (API 19).

The solution for me was to launch the "SDK Manager.exe" from my android-sdk install and then add the "Google APIs (x86 System Image)".

Then I reconfigured my Android virtual image via the "AVD Manager.exe" from my android-sdk install.

I am currently using the following settings in my Virtual Device: avd

Thanks for the info @jpmetcalf! I'm also using API 19, with newer versions the plugin fails to compile. But i'm testing on real device (not simulator) and even with v19 it crashes... :(

Finally i managed to solve this using the right Android API KEY :) :facepunch:
