Welp I just installed 3.3.0 on my G1 and now I'm getting Force Closures.
Compass arrow
Scale bar
Terrain Layer
More…
When I opened up the new Google Maps for the first time it asked “What’s new in Maps?” and it answered:
Report a problem with the map or a business listing
See businesses at an address or near a point on the map
Try out experimental features with labs
Uninstalled and reinstalled and it works fine.
Thanks for the uninstall/reinstall tip. that solved my problem. running CM-4.2.7.1
No force closes here...
The new features are cool, but nothing nearly as awesome an addition as Navigation was. Either way though, love to see that they're improving it all the time. Android's Google Maps is WAYY better than iPhone's if you ask me.
I like the fact that you can report problems right from the phone too.
I am personally getting a "package not signed" error on Enmther's TheOfficial. I uninstalled it but I still cant get it to install/
love it!! no force close after reinstall
does it have street view

Yeah it still has street view. You just long press anywhere on the screen and it brings up the next menu. As long as street view is in your area you will get the use of it. Like my area shown up above in the screen shots I do not have street view in my area so I can't really use it much.
can any one upload an apk of the new google maps, having a hard time installing it via market.

Running Cyanogen 4.2.5 and had the hacked version of 3.2.1 Maps (via XDA, before it was available on the market). Upgraded to 3.3 via market and it works fine, no FCs.

getting the same. running cyanogen 4.2.7.1 installed 3.2.1 from market fine last time. no option to uninstall from manage apps - how are you guys uninstalling?

a full uninstall (e.g. i did it with Super User File Management System (SUFMS) and then reinstall via market fixes the Maps 3.30 force close issue
Having the same problem here with the unsigned package error message - tried uninstalling, manually deleting the Maps.apk file but no luck...
Does anyone have a working APK that we can just push to our app folder and get it over with?
I'm running a modified CM 4.2.7.1 (on which people are complaining about he same issue). I don't get Google with their crap they have to do to block certain features and render the whole thing useless for all users with custom roms until someone has to spend the time and figure it all out for the rest of us...

When you are on the market there should be an option to upgrade. I simply upgraded and then when I had an error I went back to the market and searched for "Google Maps" and when it came up I used the uninstall button, followed up with searching and installing.

I just tried to download it again. Its there you just have to wait for their annoying time out thing. I'd host it on my site, but honestly I'd rather not hammer the piss out of it when megaupload works just fine.
Anybody that wants to use it just rename it to Maps.apk
Its renamed funky because of an app I have installed that renames files when I tell it to back up.
Signing issues here is another thread that addresses it.

I updated my site with version 3.3.0 if anyone wants the apk...

Hi,
I've been using Xscope for a couple of weeks, and really like it. Everything was working with it, including Flash, until today.
Today, when I try to access any webpages with Flash content, instead of the flash content, I get black boxes in those areas.
I've tried resetting Xscope to default, and also uninstalled it and re-installed it, but still no flash.
I also have tested with the default browser and Dolphin mini, and flash still works with those two other browsers, but I'd really like to have flash working with Xscope again.
Has anyone encountered this problem, or does any know how to fix it?
Thanks,
Jim

Hmmmmm... I just noticed the same thing.
Running stock, not rooted.
Same here, on all my browsers actually. I reinstalled the .apk and it appears to be working on stock and xcsope now. I wonder why it stopped in the first place?

Tried that. Still no good in xScope.
Reinstall Flash then you need to kill xscope in task manager or force close it in settings->applications to force it to restart.

I just did this and still no good. I'll try again.
Question here: I am new at xScope, but isn't closing xScope from the "OFF" button on its toolbar enough to shut it down and then it will restart the next time you use it?
No, you will need to close it completely as turning it off will keep the browsers caches for files like "flash" open.
When all else fails... reboot.

Well... I force closed xScope. I cleared xScope's cache. I uninstalled Flash. I reinstalled Flash. Rebooted. Still no good. I get the black box in place of Flash. Once I did get a Flash at Staple's site but later I only got the black box there too.

Okay, I've never seen that nor heard anybody else report this issue. So no ideas here, sorry. Maybe clear all data for xScope, assuming you don't have anything too important in there? You can always back up the app data in Titanium Backup first, then try that to see if it helps...
Hi,
Can you all check what Xscope version you have? I didn't note the version I originally installed, but I'm wondering if an update was somehow applied. Current version on my Gtab shows 6.37. *I tried to contact the developer, but no response, plus their forum has only spam for last couple of weeks ...
Also, I don't know if I'm imagining, but xscope seems a little slower loading pages since the same time...

Mine shows v6.21. I downloaded it from the developer's site (Trial). It did not change since I installed it about a week or so ago.

Thanks for checking... Since you're on 6.21, and it was working before, it's probably not a problem with an update ...

It looks like I am getting somewhere:
Using xScope I went to the Staples site and tapped the "Load Flash Arrow". The Flash box turned black.
I tapped the Menu soft key (which removed the tab bar at the top and the command bar at the bottom). The Flash box displayed properly.
I tapped the Menu soft key again (which brought back the Tab bar at the top and the command bar at the bottom). The Flash box turned all black.
This behavior appears to be consistent on several sites with Flash.
Wow! You're right, and it does that even with the 'on' setting.
Why would this have changed from before?
Same here. That trick at least got the news feeds working but only w xscope flash is not working at all with dolphin nor the stock browser where as it was a few days ago.
What has happened?

For me, Flash is still working with dolphin mini, miren, and the default browser. The only browser that's a problem is xscope. Have you tried re-installing Flash?

I don't know for sure since we don't know why it stopped working. Might not hurt to re-install the one linked on the Viewsonic favorites page.
Im on the leaked factory froyo, havent had any problems with swype in the months ive been on froyo. Installed "shootme" screen grab app, used it once, then moments later started getting the 3 vibrate error. Tried to open market to uninstall but the phone froze then shutdown. On reboot, phone was slow and continuously gave me 3 vibrate error. Switched to samsung keyboard because the buttons to the left and right of swype spacebar were blank, the error stopped and phone functions correctly on samsung keyboard. Uninstalled shootme, rebooted, tried to use swype, got the same error.. i feel naked without my swype...

I've been running Shoot Me and Swype with no problems. Have you installed the latest Swype beta? The previous versions expired. The new release comes with an installer that will keep it updated. If you haven't already, try doing it that way. You have to sign up with Swype to get the new beta.
beta.swype.com
Awesome, thanks for the help. One question, the website says "If your phone came pre-installed with Swype
DO NOT download this beta (it won't work)"
Am i missing something, or should i just do it?

Scratch that, swype is back up and running quicker than ever! Kreepyken, consider yourself my hero for the next few hours at least!

And now it has decided to give me the error again... serendipity time i suppose...
If you want to replace your Swype, you must first do the instructions from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12042627&postcount=5. Then sign up for the beta Swype (it's free) and follow the instructions there. Or like you said, just install a new Rom.
Well I went to the swype website last night, followed the directions, and got it working. That only lasted a few hours though before it reverted right back to giving me the same error. Something about a process "inputmethod". I wish I had the patience to try to rectify the problem in case somebody else has the same issue, however I decided it was just time for an upgrade
Hey everyone i thought i would bring the good news to people who are swype fans and let you guys know that the new swype 3.0 is available for download and is open for the public to join as well.
i know people on the TB were having some problems with swype in the beginning, and for all i know got fixed long before beta 3.0, but regardless the new 3.0 fixes the spacing problem on the TB and has some cool new features as well, go check it out at swype beta website

Great find.. thanks!

It seems to have fixed the issue at reboot. Don't need to toggle input methods anymore to get swype fired up which was anoying
So far so good! First time that the downloaded beta actually typed properly. Previously had to use a diff version found on xda here somewhere.

I totally uninstalled the installer & app... started from scratch... Works fantastic, no spacing or reboot issues.
The new inline word suggestion is top notch. Will see how it "learns" but maybe just a half step below swiftkey so far after a few minutes of use...

I still like Flext9 a lot...although I am using this on my Xoom because it supports tablets and Flext9 doesn't.
+100 on flext9.
Autospacing doesn't work for me when i am texting. Works fine in email and other applications though.
Uninstall and re-install worked for me.
I agree, the update is really nice. It still does not work with the pre-installed messaging app, but with apps like handcent, I will never go back to the pre-installed app.
I logged in with my account, installed the installer and the version says 1.1.26483. Is that just the installer or is something wrong?
I went ahead and installed it and my swype isn't white like in the picture either.
I bounce between Swype and FlexT9 periodically. Flex is easier with words that have double letters, but it really, really sucks in dealing with spaces after punctuation.

Thanks so much for posting this, I was lamenting my lack of swype, now I can swype to my heart's content. That reminds me, is there a way to put away the swype keypad like the stock one?

Storm, what if you can't get the installer to work? I am running a phoenix rom and the only swype I have is the beta. Unfortunately I can't run the 3.26 installer (which just came out, thereby deactivating my copy) because I'm getting an error "Swype Beta is currently unavailable for devices that have Swype preinstalled" - since my cracked copy had a beta to begin with - when a new copy was released, my copy was remotely deactivated. Is there a workaround?
I'm having an issue updating swype as well, when I go into the swype installer and hit "update" I get an error saying "There is a problem parsing the package."

Wipe data and uninstall Swype using Titanium Backup. Boot into Recovery and clear cache and dalvik cache. Then install. PROFIT!

I'm using the new Swype to type this. You don't need to clear your cache and all that. Just uninstall Swype and the Swype installer from titanium backup. Then download the new installer. Reboot your phone and run the installer and it should go through just fine. Just so you know, its really good looking.

I found his themed swypes... oops, but now after doing some more reading I see Swype has cracked down on "unofficial" themes and XDA is closing threads related to them. So I guess you'll have to find them yourself - shouldn't be too tough though.
Here's where you can get every new swype beta. Just sign up on the official site and download the installer:

The latest revision works great, but I'm having, like many others, issues downloading alternative languages pack on ICS/CM9. Did anybody figure out a workaround?

Yesterday I installed swype on CM9 B16. within an hour i was down 40% battery (edit: phone was sitting idle, screen off). Put it on charge an even that was going slow and the top of the phone was warm. Switch the keyboard back to the android default and the phone cooled off and charging went faster (from laptop USB). Using the show cpu usage overlay, it seems like the swype keyboard is always cranking away on cpu usage even in the lock screen.
Has anyone else had this battery drain issue with swype? is there a workaround? Swype was the best thing going on my carriers GB rom.

Nope I dont have this problem, ive been using it on ICSSGS Roms, no glitches or bugs works flawlessly. It might be a bad install, remove the app and redownload it..
Ive noticed that no matter what there is almost always a swype background process running so that can contribute to your batter loss.
I realize its always going to be a looming process. I did try reinstalling a couple hours ago. Its not popping up so intensely on the cpu usage monitor and have only dropped a normal amount (a few percent) of battery since then. I think the reinstall did it.
ps. I also had wiped my Dalvik cache before the reinstall for unrelated reasons, could have this been the atual fix rather than reinstalling swype?
