Android Question problems with googlemaps example: marked location not centered

[toby]

I've followed the instructions as precisely as I could when building the example app which is attached; all you need is to set your api key.

I noticed that the map shown is always the same regardless the location of the marker. Try set the marker to anywhere in Australia and it would be out of sight. The map should center around the marker. What I did were wrong? How to achieve that?

Secondly, I want the app to zoom in automatically so that street names are visible. What I should do?

Thanks to DonManfred, now the map centers around the marker at right zoom level.

The only problem I have is the marked location is a few hundred kms away from the correct spot. The attached example demonstrates that problem (the intended location is the white house, washington DC, USA). I'm now at loss to know to do next. Could someone kindly point me to the right direction?

Skipped 46 frames! The application may be doing too much work on its main thread.
Deprecation notice: In a future release, indoor will no longer be supported on satellite, hybrid or terrain type maps. Even where indoor is not supported, isIndoorEnabled() will continue to return the value that has been set via setIndoorEnabled(), as it does now. By default, setIndoorEnabled is 'true'. The API release notes (https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-api/releases) will let you know when indoor support becomes unavailable on those map types.

Solution: use google map with fused location provider. I have no idea why the other example works for me, but not this one. My app needs FLP anyway.
