Text keys were deprecated a good while ago. Keys and values are byte arrays in hbase. If you want the key to be Text, add the Text bytes and then make a new Text on fetching.
The new mapreduce package -- as opposed to mapred following our parent's model -- has new MR classes but TableMapper (sic) does ImmutableBytesWritable as key, a Writable to wrap the table byte array key.
