Hi
Is anyone's compass working on Google Maps while using Onecosmic's ICS RC3 Rom? My Compass is working in a Compass App and in MapDroyd.. but in Google Maps, it doesn't.
Can anyone suggest a fix? I've already replaced the networklocation.apk (which fixed the Compass App from force closing).
Thanks
Use a version of maps before 6.0 and it will work, for some reason google has done something to maps that has broken compass on AOSP based roms.
Thanks diabslosv, I'll try and get an older APK for it and try it out

can you post some working version apk of maps..or a link to the same..
also..is the "login failed" error of maps also expected to be resolved by this?

I have the same, is really annoying me.. Another apps that requires location do not work.

This is Google Maps 5.12, the last one that had a working compass.. It should work
The login failed error happens because of permissions.. but I got a triangle in the notification bar on my phone, and clicked allow for about 3 different things.
looks like it working now..
perfect...thx a lot!

Here's my current theory, I'm thinking maybe 6.0 and up is looking for the barometer (helps find your location apparently) which isn't in our phone, which is a new feature of the Galaxy Nexus.... which is somehow stuffing the compass for us..... perhaps maps 6.0 thinks our phone is a galaxy nexus .
Might be totally wrong though

which compass app you're using? I cant get it working on any app in the market.
New version of Google maps 5.12 with working compass
signed apk.
maps5.12.0-ownhere-signed.apk
http://ul.to/b63mn3qa
Maps compass solution
I just had this problem (on a different rom). After using Maps-5.12 as a workaround for months, I finally discovered that the compass will work on the newer versions of Maps if auto-rotation is enabled.
Cheers!

Yes, that's the ROM i am using. But navigation doesn't work and maps make apps with Google Maps API crash.
gmap multitouch is on the market for 2.1 device
I downloaded maps 3.4 from market but that didn't have multitouch zoom. Isn't this the version from the nexus update?

I am using a custom 2.1 ROM on Hero, and downloaded the maps 3.4 from market, but still do not have MT.
Is it because it recognizes the device as Hero? or am I missing something else in my custom rom that I need to install?
duplicate post. please delete.

mt worked for me, but no navigation.
I get: "Package file was not signed correctly." when I try to install.

I just picked up 4.1 from the market on my G1. For some reason it kept force closing and saying I was 70000meters away from where I am. I even uninstalled it and rebooted. What I ended up doing was running RA recovery, entering the utility area and then using the experimental permissions fix.
Walla it runs smooth and seems to load up pretty fast. I'm on my phone and on the run. Just wanted to let others know that it does work despite all the rambling in the comments on the market.
It worked for me too, not much of an improvement if you ask me....
FC all the time and a lot slower than the old one (I'm using CM4.2.15.1)
It works great for me. I have no idea what everyone else is complaining about.
Agreed works well for me too i'm on CM 4.2.15.
It actually seems faster than before as far as scrolling around the map
Could someone post a link to the apk?

Pulled off my phone after updating: Maps 4.1
Does this one have international navigation enabled or is it just the plain version?
plain ver. no international nav.
Shame
Don't suppose you know where there's a tutorial on how to edit the maps to add these features in like Brut does?
(Still looking for one but no luck yet)
just wait for brut to release it.

Thanks. Works fine on Dwang 1.17.1
Did anyone else get another update today? The Market said there was an update available, even though I already had 4.1.0 and the new version was also identified as 4.1.0. Strange.

yes I got this too, it crashes my phone
Yup, tried it 3-4 times and it completely resets the phone.
Had this too. Logcat said that the package manager crashed with an uncaught exception and the phone will therefore reboot.
I solved the problem by uninstalling + re-installing Maps instead of updating directly.
how do you reinstall it?
uninstall. install.
where do you go to install it?
sorry i'm new to this phone
Hey, i have Navigon 2.6.1 on my HD2 using this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060.
Installing works fine but when i launch the application i became an error message
"The application Navigon (Process com.navigation.navigator) gets closed unexpected. Try it again" (or something like that , i translated it from german)
Does somebody maybe know if its Navigon 2.6.1 which dont works on my Rom or is it maybe a buggy version and an other one would work on my rom?
Also you maybe know some equal navigation apps you could told me. ( i know copilot, is it good?)
hi,
i had the same problem with navigon. i found some fixes for the config files. but from 10 starts, 8 froze or chrashed again.
check out Sygic Aura. more pretty, fast and there is a 7 day trial version on the market
thanks, i will give it a try
Are you running gingerbread on your hd2?
If you are running gingerbread, go to settings->applications->navigon and move it from sd to phone.
theres no option "move to phone", only "move to sd" but its disabled and the only button which is actived is uninstall? so what to do?

Are you using a gingerbread build or not?
This trick with moving an app from sd to phone usually works on gingerbread with apps that force close. I don't know if this is even possible with froyo.
But since navigon is already on your phone and you can't move it anywhere, it doesn't matter anyway.
Only solution seems to be to use a different navigation software.
What's wrong with google navigation? Yes, it's online but it doesn't cost much. If you don't use navigation all the time it's a good option.
You can also try "navit" from Android market, a free, offline navigation solution.
There is a thread in this part of the forum listing the different navigation apps. Maybe you find something comparable to navigon.
try co pilot.
i use this now, having stumbled across the same problems with GB builds.
wont bother using navigon again now, copilot is a cracking bit of kit.

I've used Navigon 2.6.1 for a long time without any problems on my HD2 CoreDroid DHD ROM. On SD builds as now on NAND.
Try uninstalling it, reboot your phone an install it again.

Is your Core droid ROM a Gingerbread build?
Because the TS is using a Gingerbread build and not all apps work on GB.

Hi there!
Does Google Goggles work on Froyobread? I used to use it on Floyo 0.30 and it worked just fine, but I've installed it again (with Froyobread now) and it's frozen on the analyzing screen... Froyobread doesn't support it?
Thanks in advance!
I am using froyobread v22 and google map 5.8 works ok. only thing is to turn on wifi or 3g data after every reboot.
I suppose it is a small bug.
It happens to me when there is no internet connection. Check your Wi-Fi or data.
Both wi-fi and data traffic are on, but it still doesn't change a single thing: it's freezing at the analyzing screen... my froyobread version is 20
1st ensure you can surf internet.
If can surf, then try installing latest FB v23b and try again.
Remove the cache of map and street view may help.
V023b here. Same here. Goggles freeze at analyzing screen. It has worked in the past on previous FB v.
If you download google goggles from the market it should work perfect.My x8 Google maps works with wifi/data offline

Why are you talking about maps? I used goggles from the market on FB and it crashed. Anyway I now use GingerDX. It works on this rom.
On GingerCruz rev7 i dont have problems with apps.

Troll detected.
I didn't have time yet to make a backup and upgrade the rom, but it seems like the problem is happening with 023 too... is there a way to let doixanh know this? Should we send him a PM?
I'm thankful for every help you've given, really, thanks!

No pm. He won't answer anyway. Use GINGERDX.
Did you try fullwipe before upgrading to v023b?
I only support Xperia Active Launcher from v022 to v023. All other codes are unchanged, so there should be no problem using other apps.

Yes I do full wipe anytime I flash an update or a new rom. Not sure with wich version of FroyoBread Goggles has stoped working as I don't use it so much. Anyway I use GDX now. Wonderfull rom and Goggles works fine on it. Thank you for taking the time to answer.

working partially in FB 023b
Hi,
I'm using Froyobread 023b and google goggles does work but partially.
For instance, if I take pictures of text or QR codes it does work.
But, if I take a picture of an image (artwork or logos) it will freeze in analyzing.
IMO, the picture quality is playing us, since our phone does not support autofocus.
Could anyone confirm artwork detection in previous versions of FB?
thank you!!
Just formatted my SD Card, did a full wipe and installed FroyoBread v023b, and then Full Wiped again, and Google Goggles isn't working yet, I can't even use the text detection like mimorqleko does.
Since I won't update to GingerDX yet, is there any fix for this?
Thanks!

google now is working for both ics and jellybean but without voice search
google starts but does not show any cards
hello, this is my first post, so please consider if i am mistaken about anything.
i am using Samsung Galaxy ace GT-S5830 and currently i am on cm 10.1 (details attached ) .my google now starts but it does not show any cards at all. i have enabled the required settings for it in the settings and privacy menu and checked that the cards are turned on.
the voice search does not work ( as told by limxyz ) and now closes with the error that google tts has stopped working unexpectedly .
i am not expecting the voice search to work but would be happy even if cards appear.
thank you
