8. Recall from Chapter 9 that the LBS application requires the use of the Google Maps API key, which you applied by using your debug.keystore’s MD5 fingerprint. This means that the Google Maps API key is essentially tied to the debug.keystore used to sign your application. Because you are now generating your new keystore to sign your application for deployment, you need to apply for the Google Maps API key again, using the new keystore’s MD5 fingerprint. To do so, go to the command prompt and enter the following command (the location of your keytool.exe utility might differ slightly and you would need to replace the path of the keystore with the path you selected earlier in step 5; see also Figure 11-7):
