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.
Is anyone else seeing in appbrain that Google Maps has an update but there really isn't one?

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?
Am I correct in thinking that the new update can do Google Maps Navigation? If so how do I download it?

Ok so I've got smoked glass 6.0.1 running great on my phone but I'm one of the many that are having problem with google maps. I opted to uninstall after installing the rom but I don't know how to do it. I've searched everywhere and they all say just go to manage apps and uninstall from there. I don't have the option to do it from there!...I then saw that you can try filtering and choosing one of the com.google......things that are listed but I don't have the one for maps. Lastly, I saw somewhere using adb shell does the job but I have NO IDEA how to do that.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using BB V0.4 and maps.apk is in the system/apps folder. Ive tried removing it from there and installing through the market and it wont install. Ive tried removing and putting another Maps.apk back in the system/apps folder and it still wont work. Ive changed the permissions to make sure its like the other apps in the apps folder. It doesn't even show up anywhere on my system. I also have Fabs X theme running on top, but he doesn't theme the Maps.apk. I don't get it, whats the problem?
View 5 Replies View RelatedMaps is very powerful and I think it's one of the best features of the Droid, but I still feel like I don't understand a lot about it.
Sometimes I'll look up directions for a place I want to go later. How do I save that location? I know I can look it up with a PC and save it in "my Maps", then possibly access that layer on my Droid. But I just want a place to save destinations that I might want to go to later.
This is one example of many things that should be easy to do, but I don't understand how to.
Sorry if this has been posted else ware but I have not been able to find it nor figure it out.

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/

View 40 Replies View RelatedHow do you create and save a map on Google My Maps and then get it into navigation on the droid? I have created and saved a map on My Maps (on-line.) I started Maps on the phone and successfully loaded the map from the web. The map shows up on the phone, but when I try and go to navigation I have to enter start and end points. Is there a way to get the My Maps map to transfer straight to Navigation?
