MD5 fingerprint for android debug keystore

use cd command to go to .android folder
type the following command on the command prompt

keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android

if you have set environment variables properly, MD5 fingerprint will be displayed on the command prompt.
you can use this to obtain Google maps API key for debugging your application.
but you cant deploy your app with this key.
to deploy you have to create a new keystore and obtain the API key for that one.
