Android :: Loading Route Directions In Google Maps From PC To Phone
Aug 7, 2010
Is it possible to move routes/directions from Google maps on your PC web browser to maps and navigation on your phone?
I have worked out how to export kml files from Google Maps on the PC.
It would have been nice to be able to save routes in My Maps (maybe you can, but I don't see how).
Also, is it possible to build a route with multiple destinations in Google Maps/Navigation on the phone?

Frustrating - but apparently the capability is I can customize a route online with Google Maps, save it to my maps and send it to the phone but it sends the static map.Ridiculously, all this power and I can't take those directions from the PC and turn them into turn by turn directions on the phone.

Dear Android community, i've a license/legal question regarding asking Google directions to be drawn directly into the MapView. Some of you know that asking google http://maps.google.com/maps/nav will give directions in Json + a Polyline encoded form.What i would like to know is, where is the Terms of Service regarding this functionality? It is for Google internal use or not? There's also the KML which gives similar informations. Please note that it is NOT for real time driving directions but a path to be drawn from a point to another and your position NOT refreshed in real time and of course it is for an app downloadable free of charge.

I am using Google Navi to take me somewhere I have never been before. It tells me to get on the freeway and then it says "Destination On My Right." I finally figure out where the place is after calling them. But that was weird.
I then get home and look up directions on Google Maps. It literally says:
7.Take the ramp on the left onto US-59 N
Destination will be on the right

I am using Google Maps on my PC to create a customized route to a destination. When I do a Google Directions search it charts out a route that I do not want to take.
So I use the drag and drop method to change the route on the map and save it to My Maps. When I log back into Google My Maps on my PC, it shows me the modified route and the correct turn by turn directions using the new route. So far so good.
But when I load Google Maps on my Droid and show the layer I just created which is the new route to my destination. It shows me the new route traced on the map, but does not give me the correct turn by turn directions. Instead it always forces me to search for and load the "default" directions that Google found in the first place that I do not want to use. It does this with Google Navigation as well.
Why doesn't it use MY directions that I just created on Google Maps on my PC ?
How can I create a new route to a destinatioin and save it so I can get turn by turn directions using that new route that I have chosen?

At the moment I am using this code to inquire google maps for directions from an address to another one, then I simply draw it on a mapview from its GeometryCollection. But yet this isn't enough I need also to extract the total expected duration from the kml. give a little sample code?

Anybody know how to "see title". After entering source and destination information via google maps, is there a way to forward the resulting directions whether it be via text, email, or otherwise to another person. Alternatively, is there a way to forward basic GPS location info via the same methods. I have not been able to find this option via HTC Footprints either.

My app needs to show Google Maps directions from A to B, but I don't want to put the Google Maps into my application - instead, I want to launch it using an Intent. Is this possible? If yes, how?

Is it possible to provide directions on a map on Android from 1 place (e.g a specific lat/lng) to another specific lat/lng? I realise this is doable with the Google-maps API but can you do it within Androids native implementation?

Is it possible to get google maps to find directions for local bus routes? I know my local bus organization uses google for bus directions, and I can access it through the browser, but I'm wondering if there's a way to do it through the Maps application.

I am looking for a way to keep my screen from blacking out and going to the lock screen when using the directions in google maps. I am sure I missed a setting somewhere. Is the only way to achieve this is to go to settings and click the never time out option?

Is there anyway to store a route or track using the google maps on the g1. I have a garmin that when on automatically stores your route and it can be saved and uploaded to the computer. It seems logical that this would be available on the g1, as it has all the capabilities already available, ie gps and maps. I can't find any mention of it or a way of doing this with existing software. It seems this would make for a very powerful tool if enabled. What about being able to sync routes and tracks with google earth? I have seen the new application "my maps editor" , but it only enables you to manually place lines or shapes.

Been searching for the life of me for an app (or some way in Google Maps) to go to a spot on the map and draw a line down the street along a certain route and store the run to My Maps. Am I missing something?

I've seen more than a few users in the OTA section commenting on the new Navigation Shortcut for Google Maps. This is NOT part of the OTA, per se, but is due to a Google Maps for Mobile update that coincidentally debuted today.
This is from the Official Google Mobile Blog:

Looking through the searches I can't seem to find anyone who has asked this question before and maybe this is being addressed with the 2.1 update. When I'm in the Google Maps application and I've entered my start and end point the route it give me is on a toll road or a highway I know to be very slow because of traffic. I know that when I'm using my computer for directions I can drag the line to add a via point / alternate route. Is there a way to do this in the current Google Maps on the HTC Droid Eris?

I was playing with Google Maps after the 2.1 update and on one occasion for a trip a screen came up that listed (3) different routes with the total miles and time for each route. One was for I295, one for I95, and one was for US202. Since then I can't seem to replicate that screen. Any answers? Suggestions? UPDATE: Found the answer. After selecting Navigate for a route, click Menu and a screen will come up with (3) symbols on the bottom. Left most one is the Symbol for Navigate, the symbol with a couple of arrows is the one to PRESS. This will give alternate route info that you can select. UPDATE AGAIN When I tried again, the option I mentioned above was grayed out and no longer works. I'm not sure what is going on.

I am looking for a way to overlay a route in google maps.
What I want is to take this map Greenways Oak Ridge Google map and get it to my google My Maps. Then I can pull it up in Maps and use my location to see where I am in relation to where I need to be in case I want to take a different route to need to shorted the ride due to darkness.
Most rides I do I can find these maps but cant do anything with them.

1) Is there a way to save addresses or driving directions? Like if I know i'm going on a trip tomorrow and want to prepare for the trip, can i put in the addresses and get directions, then save? Also, can I save my HOME address? So whenever I'm anywhere, just say "home" and it route my destination?

I just got a new 2014 Chevy Sonic and I have paired my Huawei H881C to the car stereo. Once for "Phone" and once for "Music". Right now I can play the car radio music OR press a button on the car stereo that says "Media" and select "Bluetooth" which turns the car radio music off and lets the GPS voice directions come through the car stereo speakers but no music. I can't have both, the car radio music and GPS voice directions at the same time. Seems like the music volume should mute while the GPS directions are given then return to the previous volume and continue playing the music I had going. Instead it's "either or". ?

Since I installed (might just be a coincidence but I did update Maps via the market) 2.1, Google Maps takes so long to update when showing directions. For example I'll be in one street and have walked to another and it will still show me in the previous street after 30 seconds or so later. Also I noticed today when using it, that the arrow wouldn't move and just stays in one spot but the arrow does change direction though.
I could have sworn it wasn't like this before and I could just use it like a real gps unless I've overlooked something.
Also I get the "Current location temporarily unavailable" message all the time when searching my location unless I tick the Use Wireless Networks in the Location settings of the Hero. When I had 1.5, I didn't need to do this and just used GPS satellites.
What am I doing wrong here?

Is it possibly to have a button in my app that switches to the phone's Maps application while passing in a destination for directions? And how would I do that? Haven't been able to find anything about it.

Before I updated to android 2.2 and updated to latest Googlemaps the navigation was perfect. It calculated the route in seconds and was a joy to use. Since the updates, it is taking ages to calculate route, so long in fact that I exit the programme and start again, and then I just give up and dig out my atlas.

I would really like to incorporate turn-by-turn directions to our application, but it appears to be against the TOS. Is there any way to get permission from Google to allow this for our application? I have what looks like one other app allow this interface.

For some reason I cannot get my first maps application to work. I have gone though the full process of getting the MD5 fingerprint for the debug.keystore, registered for the key on the website, put it into the xml file. Even had changed my computer's locale to US English. I also signed the application with my private key and pushed it via ADB to the emulator. All attempts so far resulted only in the grey Google Maps background with the tiles not loading. JAVA_HOME environment variable points to my JDK file. Not sure what else I can do. Even upgraded from SDK 1.1 to 1.5. No improvement. I am really stuck here. I am running WIN XP, Eclipse ganymede, SDK 1.5 r2, with the latest ADT. Here is my class file code: package com.mellagio.maps; import com.google.android.maps.MapActivity; import com.google.android.maps.MapController; import com.google.android.maps.MapView; import android.app.Activity; import android.os.

Who studied the way to load in maps in google maps? When we move the screen of google maps, the small maps will be loaded in quickly and pieces to pieces. I want to know the loading-in way or materials.
