If your having issues finding the debug key path or dont want to use the adb you can get the fingerprint in eclipse:

go to window-->preferences and find the android section. Select the build sub-setting.

enter image description here

for the production fingerprint when your exporting your signed application using ADT right before you click finish the hash will be there. just copy it.
