[Q] no blue arrowhead of google map

After locating myself on google map, there is no blue arrowhead representing my location. Only a blue dot appears. With other programs, I ve found that the compass of my device is working properly.
P.S: I am using 2.3.4 and Google map is the latest version
Any opinions about what happens?

Yea u r right but when u move the arrow will appear.... i faced it too when i was driving my car....

did u have the same problem before? compass used to appear immediately even i was standing still. it would be very troublesome now.(i have not yet tried whether the arrow will really appear again!)

No i dint had that prob before... i feel its bcz of new update of map maybe....

I'm having the same issue, since i installed Google Maps 6 or something. In other programs compass works fine. In Google Maps v. 5.2 or something compass also works fine.
P.S. Now on 20n with Google Maps 6.3 - and still no luck with that.
Of course arrow appears when you move with GPS fixed to the satellites. It just draws vector from your previous location to current location. Compass is another thing - it shows your heading immediately, without GPS fix and even when you stand still.

i am so frustrated now....
anyone know how to report this problem to Google map? i ve done so on feedback on android market and google map forum. but seems, they dont care
besides, no one else has come across this problem? it seems no others have talked about this in the internet

I had same problem with google maps v6. So I downgrade the app to v5.12.0 and the blue arrow is back

Also, as a workaround, installing google maps [brut] 4.6 worked for me (as I was unable to remove/downgrade stock maps from unrooted phone)

Same bug with V20E Vietnam (tested google map v6 and 6.5 stock and 6.5 ownhere)
I think kernel stock LG bug !!!!
Someone test with rom CM7....it can working???

navigation not working

hello guys my google navigation isn't working its waiting for location all the day
why??

Already tried this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494862

i have no root

Try "gps test" from google play. Go outdoor start gps, turn off internet access, start the app and wait until 30 min, if the can’t get satellites and fix them after 30 you have a hardware problem. In other case all is OK

Notice that sygic works normally

Search for another version of Gmaps in google, an instalable .apk

Also google maps gets my location perfectly but only navigation

Navigation is a part of Maps!

So how to download it??
**I had old lg one also wasn't work but the message is different "Not enabled in your country"

Just search in google for "Google Maps 6.3.0 Apk", or "Google Maps v5.12.0" or what you want.

http://www.apktops.com/google-maps-6-3-0-worldwide-navigation-activated.html
I found this but Application not installed I don't have root
What is the solution??

Normaly there is no need to be root, it's signed. Have you try to install it?
I have a Optimus black, an no problem with maps and navigator. I have the actual Map 6.7.0. The only issue, is that the compass don't work in maps. The compass works in 5.x versions.
Just try you can't destroy nothing.
Regards.

I tried
it told me app not installed
May it cuz my location??

Try this: http://www.mediafire.com/?ah6v4zd4gtdo542

I will try to use navigation now

only google nav has problems here
hi there,
Do you recognize this?
Google Navigation constantly looses its gps fix, almost at every turn.
Other navigation software like NavFree has no problem at all.
It is almost as if Google Navigation resets the GPS sensor when it is too slow to keep up (not driving too fast though).
Any ideas?

why do you want so badly google maps??? if sygic works for you its a very good navigation program. also google maps need gprs connection to work charging you instead of sygic that it's maps are on the phone.

[Q] Is there a way to make google maps works ?

Hi.
I try to use google maps with no success yet.
I use null rom, and share location with GearLocationBridge (and muck location is enabled)
Google maps launch but i cannot locate myself on the map.
On launch it says i must allow google app to use my location.
I didn't see the location menu on the parameters app from the gear, but i can get to it using google maps, and the sliders for allowing to use my location is ON.
But it didn't seems to have any effect.
I tried with both Maps 6 and 7.
Someone have a idea ?

Maybe because the gear doesn't have a built in gps?

There is no offline map program to install on the smartphone so the Gear can get the turn-by-turn text notifications? Maps is not supported as we know. Tried TomTom. I can activate notifications but... TomTom has no notifications at all, lol. Maybe Sygic? Anyone tried it?

I tried Sygic with an older version of Null ROM, the app was starting fine without the maps (but gave an error that they are missing) and when i installed the maps i only got black screen and crash..

It seems that some Sygic version is FC on some Note 3. On mine it crashes too. Should try Waze.
I'm on stock rom and unrooted for now. Got the watch a couple days ago so still messing with stock rom. Don't know if I could really get beneficts from Null rom for my kind of use.

[Q] Is there something like pebble nav me ?

Google navigate through Google maps works with gear location bridge

Not exactly the same.
With navme, google maps works on the phone and on gear only map and notificación of address appears
In this way, it is easier to run google maps cause its no necessary load google maps on gear and share gps by BT

[Q] Google app doesn't work via WiFi

I have android 2.1 (rooted) on my sony xperia X8.
I can't using google maps (app) with wifi connection, only when gsm data transfering is on I can load maps and streetview.
The same situation is in google translator (works only via gsm data transferring).
All other app (games etc) working fine using only wifi connection. This is like google app problem. I try reinstall them, no result...
What can I do/check in this issue?
