title: Getting Android Google Map v2 working in release version by generating SHA1 fingerprint for API key
body: <p>I spent a long time tonight trying to figure out how to get my Google Map that worked in the debug version of my Android application to work in the release version.  There were a few different problems that came up.  Some fragments of Stack Overflow posts helped, but I thought it would be useful to list more detail for the whole process, including the problems I had, which were:</p>
  
  <p>1) How/where do you specify something different for your release version?</p>
  
  <p>2) How do you run the keytool executable needed to get the release version fingerprint?</p>
  
  <p>3) Why was I getting the "keystore file exists but is empty" error when running keytool?</p>
