Any of you guys having this issue?
My Android TTS is working, Navigation works, and everything. The only thing is that it began giving generic directions instead of the previous TTS street names and the like.
Lots of people are having this issue with the GNex on 4.0.2, but reports are that it's allegedly fine on every other version of the OS, 4.0.3+ included. This issue has allegedly existed ever since Maps 6.6 dropped.
Can anyone confirm/deny? I'm currently on HK Sense 3.6 stock and have had this problem on Virtuous Inquisition and Wajee's Desensed also.

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
I recently installed Teamhacksung 4.0.3 on my Captivate. It has some bugs, but so far nothing I can't live with. The one issue I am having that I can't figure out is the Voice Navigation.
I'm using SVOX's Victoria UK voice and it works fine on my other apps, (ie, reading txt, alarm, etc) The problem I'm having is with Google Maps - I've updated to the latest and used an older version of maps with the same problem. When giving directions the voice starts giving me saying: xlms version equals 1.0, state version equals 1.0, www(dot)wfree(dot)org/2001/10/.
I've tried uninstalling the voice and Google Maps as well as updating both, but still have the issue. The visual portion of maps is fine, but the verbal is driving me crazy.
I've used this in the past with Froyo without any glitches.
Again, it works (reads my text) fine on other apps.
Thank you
Ever since Google Maps was updated to v6.0, I've noticed that certain things, such as highway shields, show up as blank squares. I've tried each subsequent version up to 6.2.0, but the same thing happens. I've tried clearing the app's cache and the dalvik cache, to no avail. I have screenshots, but can't link to them, as I'm still a noob here, so I've attached them to this post.
ubJSH.png is Google Maps 6.0.3, but all subsequent versions do the same thing.
MsZNV.png is Google Maps 5.12 after uninstalling Maps 6.0+ and installing the 5.12 apk.
All Google Maps v6.0+ work perfectly on the stock 2.1 HTC Hero, so it seems to be a problem specific to Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 (can't vouch for earlier CM versions). It must not happen on other phones, or we would be hearing more about it.
Any thoughts?
I've seen the same thing on my phone. It may have to do with the phone being under powered?
confirming the glitches
The same thing is happening to on my Hero. I get the white boxes that show up on the map. The text for street names also is all messed up. This seems to happen randomly but usually almost always occurs when scrolling/moving around on the map.
Does anyone notice that the maps app is unusually jittery or choppy on the HTC One? More specifically, I'm comparing it to the Nexus 4. Scrolling/panning and pinch-zoom in google maps on the N4 is much smoother than my HTC One and I'm not sure why. The One will frequently not register some swipes/pinches and often the scrolling is quite jittery while the map is loading while scrolling. On the N4, I can pan freely and it won't miss any inputs. I've tried this on both 3G and wifi with both phones and the results are the same regardless of the connection type. Both have the most up to date version of the application as well. Could this be a 4.1 to 4.2 issue?
Still no one bothered by this? I have tried many HTC One's as well as a few Galaxy S4's and they all have the same problem. It seems Google Maps for 1920x1080 devices suffer from this problem. I have frequent crashes too (the application just closes and dumps you to the home screen).
Guess there's nothing that can be done but wait for Google to update the application I guess...
Yeah, I noticed that too on my HTC One. It really bothers me, I'm surprised that they haven't fixed it already. I noticed it with the official 4.1 and 4.2 android versions as well as a custom 4.2 HTC sense rom. I haven't tried it with stock android (Google Play edition HTC one) yet, but I definitely will. My old HTC Desire S with cm10.1 works perfectly with the new maps, without any jitter at all. Come on Google, get this fixed.
I just got a US version of the Zenfone 8. It looks like it's running the same software as global versions as one of the updates indicated VoLTE support being added for some EU carriers. Currently on WW_30.11.51.67.
All apps are working fine, except Google Maps which crashes as soon as you try to open it. Is anyone experiencing this issue?
Nope, no crashes whatsoever
No crashing either. You could try to use OrganicMaps as a replacement that does not track you and is open source.
