Yes it is ... be default it will draw an image for each item in its
collection. (super.draw())

Right.

Wrong. It should be drawing whatever you tell it to, which in this case is
it's collection of icons (super.draw()) and exactly one circle (the rest of
your code).

Because you're only drawing one circle, so that's what you get. draw() does
not get called for each item in the list, it gets called once for the entire
collection. It's up to you to iterate through your list of items and draw
your circles at the desired locations.

Probably a separate issues. Most map crashes on tap issues are due to the
way it selects items. You have to be VERY careful about how you select,
unselect, and remove items from the list. The class does a terrible job in
checking for and preventing these sort of issues.

No, don't, I won't have time to look it over.

 I can't promise that, but I mean well, I swear =)

And if you're just learning the language, I'd suggest you try something
that's "vanilla" Java (having nothing to do with Android) while you get the
concepts and language down. Jumping into Android, especially the
fairly-complicated and buggy Maps API, will have you ripping your hair out
very quickly.

Good luck.
