But how to get hold of it (UK), does not show in the Market
Been wondering the same
Isn't it only for donut and > ?
just tried on 2.1 htc here in .nl market
loads fine but having a hard time getting a fix still
I can see it in CM 4271
but cannot install it @all
Google Maps 3.2 and higher need at least Android 1.6+ (cupcake). We've been left for dust so to speak. Time to start pestering HTC for an estimate on when we get Android 2.1 goodness for real.
Need Donut or Higher!
Just tried to install on my Sprint Hero, no good.
How much longer for update to 2.0/higher???

Since updating to cm 4.1.11.1 with the new 1.6 donut I'm having some issues with apps that use google maps such as the weather channel, weatherbug, and my tracks. On all three apps, when the map loads there is a blank grid section in the lower left area of the screen. In the case of the weather apps, the issue is in the radar map section. The blank area is in the exact same spot on the screen for all three apps. However, the actual Google Maps app works fine. If I downgrade to cm 4.0.4, the apps work fine, so I'm assuming the issue has to deal with the new 1.6 firmware, but I haven't been able to find anyone else having these problems with cyanogen's rom or the stock one. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Known issue which will be fixed in the next build:

After the My Tracks upgrade it worked fine until I clicked <Send Now> when I tried to send to Google.
I am running the latest Cyanogen Mod., 4.2.13
Hy there I need some help.
I have a Unlocked, rooted, lag fixed, samsung captivate.
My google maps is the one that came installed on the phone(4.3) and I need to update it to the 4.6 version. The thing is that I can`t find the app on the market even using the QR code.
The same happens with shazam encore.
Plese help me, is there another way to update the app?
Please helppppppppp
Need more details. Which Rom are you running?
Just an FYI- A LOT of people (myself included) have had serious problems with the 4.6 update for google maps. Its causing reboots and fc's upon launch. It fc's on my captivate every time I open it. Running Cogv.2.3.b2.
Why you can't find it in the market, I have no idea, (it's showing up for me) but you might just wanna wait till google sorts this out and releases 4.7.
I know many have been eagerly awaiting the 10.2 flash release. when i searched market on my gtab i could not find it today like i could on my captivate which conviently updated to 2.2 today (joy!!). Long over due ATT...
anyways since the stars lined up just right i thought i would leave the .apk up here for all. i have run this and it is flawless on cnn....no more hiccups or freezing like previous versions!
Thank you so much for this. I couldn't find it either running calkulins rom
try going to market.android.com. I found it there and tagged for download to my "G" ( running Vegan 5.1 ) loaded and runs fine.
Thanks for the apk. I used to be able to see flash in the market, in fact that is where I installed 10.1 from. I'm on the new vegan and I could see the xoom games as well but I couldn't see some other stuff I wanted like evernote and dolphin. Online market just blocks me with compatibility errors. After doing some messing I got it so I can see those things but no longer can I see flash or the xoom/tiaga games. I can't even upgrade flash through market even though I installed it from there. Google's dictatorship over the market is in its own way is as messed up as Apple's market censorship and it is downright frustrating and disappointing. So again, thanks. I've tried to get my market back to displaying what it originally displayed but not luck. Either way I'm still only able to enjoy half the android experience.

Thanks OP.
Yes, I agree with you. Market originally let me dl Cordy, but now since it has been updated for more gameplay its not in native market, and its not compatable with online market.
I have searched the forums, and performed some "fixes", but I still can't download certain apps from the market. Specifically Yahoo FantasyFootball this time, but there are others that also say "device not compatible" when I try to download them from the market. Specs are:
Android Version 2.3.3
Kernel 2.6.32.36-cyanogenmod
ROM VEGAn-7.0.0-RC1-Harmony
Build number GRI40
Any help would be appreciated!
Mods:
Should this be moved to a different category?
This is the one that I used. I went through about 5 before I found this one. Been working great for me. Same kernel, VEGAn version and build, hope this helps.
I could not see Yahoo Fantasy Football 11 in Market as well, but a Market fix made it show up. I hadn't done one of these Market fixes in a while, as I could find the apps I needed with a build.prop olympus hack. So try...
Bringup Market , press Home to put it in background.
Settings->Applications->System Applications->Market->clear cache, force stop
Google Services Framework->clear data-> Force stop.
Bringing up Market now should give you an error.
Reboot
Wait a few minutes before bringing up Market after reboot.
Sometimes you need an extra reboot at this point.
This made Yahoo Fantasy Football show up in Market (the new Market) for me. Also some more apps show up as requiring update which did not before.
I am running TNT Lite 4.4

Hey everyone
Here is the problem: Recently I decided to update google maps to the newest version 6.0.0. This update made it simply useless for me. GPS locking is good, however scrolling around and zooming in and out is just plain terrible. Anyone know why this is? I tried to uninstall updates but it reverts back to 5.8.0 which is equally as bad. Is there anyway to improve Google Maps? I know that it has a lot of features however the usability is completely gone now for me it is very slow and laggy every time I start it.
Help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you !
I do not know ..
I also have a similar issue though I don't have a Galaxy S - I have a Galaxy Ace running BehradGH's Cyanogen mod RC2.2.
I often got very laggy maps (totally unusable) and also many "this application has become unresponsive" messages and the options to force close or wait.
I have had to roll back to 5.11 which I had a titanium backup of - this works fine/normally.
I really don't know what causes the issue, I just hope its fixed in the next incremental update.
