I downloaded and installed BB 1.0 today with Adamz Smoked Glass Theme and I'm having trouble with Google Maps. It won't install after downloading.
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust got off the phone with two VZW reps who couldn't give me an answer and suggested that I use VZ Navigator since Verizon can support that software, LOL. My Problem: Used Google Maps Navigator for the first time today. Was using my Motorola Car Dock I purchased and got the address put in and everything then tapped "Navigate". Si there I am and have my nice map view of the route I'm taking and every 30 or so seconds it would flip to a grey screen with multiple tiered options, first of which was "my location" and the address. Below that was the option to tap "Navigate" again which took me back to the map view as it should be. Problem is that it just kept popping back into the grey tier screen every 30 or so seconds. I took it off the dock and this doesn't seem to be happening while not on the dock although I get another message telling me to detach the charger from the wall to conserve battery...WTF? After speaking in depth with VZW reps they seem clueless. First rep told me to try and uninstall Google maps and reinstall (which come to find out I can't do after speaking to the second rep) while the second rep seemed to want to glorify his Droid Incredible and how great it was over the Droid X. he offered to reset my phone but advised I would have to sync all my contacts again, redo all my widgets and reconfigure all my e-mail addresses. Anybody else experiencing this problem with the car Dock and Google Navigation?

I tried yesterday and got an error that I think said something about a problem w/ the service pack.I tried probably 5x last night to install it from the market but didn't have any luck. Today I tried twice and again I get an installation error, however it doesn't say what the error is specifically.It takes about 4 minutes to download then when it gets to installation it says "installation unsuccessful"

View 4 Replies View RelatedI used to really love the Latitude interface, when I clicked on a friend in Latitude, I got a screen with many options, including Navigate to, send text, etc.
One really cool feature on this screen was "what's nearby" which showed stores etc. that were near my friend.
Also, the background was black and the text was white.
NOW (after the last update): I lost the "what's nearby" feature AND the background is white and the text is black.
What can I do? Is there a way to revert maps to the older release?
i took the captivate on the road and used it as navigation. it worked great for the first 3 hours of the trip, reception or not. i was amazed until i received a notice that my phone internal app memory is low and i need to uninstall my apps. theres no way my memory should be full because i've checked it every few days and i've had 1.6 gb free. all of a sudden i've got 126mb. i'm guessing that Google maps had downloaded the maps in advanced and had just filled up the internal memory. unfortunately i have no clue how to clear the maps. until i can figure this out i cant receive emails, or texts or any messages because the memory is full. does someone know how to clear the old maps from the navigation app? i'm on the road so i havent been able to look at it extensively. i will research it more when i get a chance and post anything i find.

View 6 Replies View RelatedSo I flashed back to sbf then rooted. Now I downloaded ROM manager and tried to boot into clockwork recovery through it to update back to 2.2. Well, every time I click "reboot into recovery", it just restarts my phone. I've tried clearing cache, uninstalling and reinstalling rom manager but nothing will boot into recovery. I've tried downgrading to a different clockwork mod recovery, but it gives me the error message "an error occured while downloading your recovery".

I'm running Cyanogenmod 6. I just noticed that I can't find Google voice or Google maps in the market. I do have the apps installed, but can't see them int he market to get updates. I tried out LFY1.7 and Ultimate Droid 1.0.0, and see the same issue.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAfter receiving the Froyo OTA update and realizing that it totally broke all of the features I use on my Droid (streaming audio, silent mode, etc.), I have downgraded to Bugless Beast v1.1.
I am finding that BBv1.1 is continuously downloading the OTA update from Verizon over and over in the background. If I go to Settings | About Phone | System Updates, I see a status bar indicating the download progress for the OTA update. The OS never requests to install the update, but it keeps downloading repeatedly. This is absolutely killing my 3G bandwidth, making web browsing nearly impossible. It is also killing my battery life (about 10 hours on idle).
How the hell do I stop BB v1.1 from downloading this OTA update that I do not want?
Is anyone having issues with Google Maps being able to pinpoint your exact location while using the Evo?I used to use Google Maps all the time on my MyTouch, and it would always find my exact location with no problem. But I used it for the first time today on my Evo, and it was always a couple of streets off (not "general" location with the transparent blue circle, but "exact" location w/no circle). This is very inconvenient when using Navigation because it keeps wanting to redirect from a place that I'm not at.I made sure my GPS was on before I started using Maps. I haven't tried using Sprint Nav or any other Nav apps, so I'm not sure if it's a problem with Google Maps, or the Evo GPS.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've scoured forums and seem to see only talk about people receiving the OTA, or using the About PhoneCheck for updates to get it, or downloading a custom rooted ROM with it.
I have a normal, unrooted D2 and I've not had an OTA, and every single time I try to do the check for updates, here is what happens:
Over wifi: The checking for updates spinning circle never stops.
Over 3g: Message Box: "Check for update was not available at this time. Try again later."
I've had this since result the 28th of October. Am I missing something?
I just installed VillainROM 10.3.0 Final and so far I noticed that Google Maps is not working.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble with Google Maps in my HTC Desire. When I look at My Location, it is completely wrong. When I rotate my phone, the arrow turns round, but the location is nowhere near where I actually am. Anybody have any idea what I can do about this, as I really need to use this feature.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an application here that has a feature of showing a POI on the map. It's only one POI and it is only drawn when it's actually within the visible screen area. It works perfectly for a while but if I play around zooming in and out and dragging, it will eventually crash. According to Logcat, the reason is always an OutOfMemory error.
At first, I thought it was a bug on the Google Maps API. After some researching and seeing some Romain Guy posts, I was kind of convinced that I had done something stupid on my app that kept me running out of memory from time to time. Then I ran some more detailed tests with Heap Analyzer (Eclipse) on and I saw that even though I had 2+, sometimes 3+ megabytes left of free memory, I was still getting those annoyings Force Close messages caused by OutOfMemoryError. Most of the times it crashes when trying to alocate some 614kb chunk of memory regardless of how much I have left.
This problem happens a lot on Nexus One 2.2.1 and on HTC Evo 2.1. After some little testing, I got no crash neither on G1 1.6 nor Samsung Galaxy S i9000 2.1. But I cannot say for sure the G1 and Galaxy will not show this problem after more testing. I can only think of a memory fragmentation problem. I hope this problem has a solution. I will also be glad if I can just catch this error and prevent the app from crashing.................
New Maps update in Market to 3.3.1...
Apparently to fix some issues users were experiencing with layers.
Ultrabrief: Google Maps hits 3.3.1 to fix a problem with Layers [Symbian, Windows Mobile]
2 Questions:
1> I know I'm old and senile, but I swear that before the update I did not have this "My Location" thing glowing a big blue ring around me on the map (and, nope... no male enhancement products in use either). I wouldn't mind so much if it was actually at my location, but it seems to be the location of the nearest tower or something. I see in the menu a button that says My Location (and I think that has been there for awhile), but pressing it does not make the blue ring go away. And it's not in Layers (or More Layers). How do I turn that off? I see how it can be helpful (in the menu you can see some businesses nearby), but I'd rather have the option.
2> According to all of the generic Maps Update on countless blogs, we now have access to "Starred Items". Okay - I give.... what the heck are those? I've gone through my maps on google on a PC and I don't see anything. I've gone to Starred Items on my phone and it tells me that I don't have any - duh. I have a number of contacts listed in Favorites, but that doesn't appear to be what Starred Items is.
I'm using a Spice Mi-350 phone (It is the same as Lenovo A60). On the stock Google Maps worked perfectly. But recently i flashed Yonip 5.3.7 Rebirth ROM. Since then Google Maps does not work anymore. When ever i open it, it says 'This application requires a working data connection'. I have a fully working data connection and every other app on my phone can access the internet except for Google Maps and it's related apps(like Navigation,Places,Local,etc).
Here is the download link for the Yonip 5.3.7 Rebirth ROM. [URL] .....
when downloading this in rom manager it asks about google apps..whats included in google apps if you check it?

I have noticed everyone here in the states have voice turning gps. I have the motorola android phone but I do not have the navigation? why is this? how may i acquire this software? i am willing to pay what ever cost.
Does the dx have Google maps and navigation pre loaded or do you have to get from the market. Or do you have to use vz navigater.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI used the Droid/Google GPS over Christmas to get from Tx to Fla... smooth as butter. Satellite view of the route was amazing.Since then I've rooted with SMUpdater and installed the newest Google Maps, as well as SetCPU, running at 800,000.I used the GPS yesterday and though it worked great, it was a bit laggy, took a while to fill in with satellite view from time to time, especially if I tried to zoom in at any point.Is the rendering of the map reliant more upon the speed of the processor or upon the speed of the internet -- and could any of the updates or mods affected this/
