If you have an MBTiles offline layer you would like to use, the following code should work.
// Retrieve GoogleMap instance from MapFragment or elsewhere
GoogleMap map;
// Create new TileOverlayOptions instance.
TileOverlayOptions opts = new TileOverlayOptions();
// Get a File reference to the MBTiles file.
File myMBTiles;
// Create an instance of MapBoxOfflineTileProvider.
MapBoxOfflineTileProvider provider = new MapBoxOfflineTileProvider(myMBTiles);
// Set the tile provider on the TileOverlayOptions.
opts.tileProvider(provider);
// Add the tile overlay to the map.
TileOverlay overlay = map.addTileOverlay(opts);
// Sometime later when the map view is destroyed, close the provider.
// This is important to prevent a leak of the backing SQLiteDatabase.
provider.close();Copyright (c) 2012 Jonathan Baker
