Remove xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" from the <fragment> element, and consider moving xmlns:map="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" from the <fragment> element to the root element. For example, this is valid: <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:map="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" android:id="@+id/foo" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"> <fragment android:id="@+id/map" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment" map:mapType="satellite"/> </RelativeLayout>
