This is what worked for me (on TnT Lite)...
1) Install My Fake Location from Market. Set my preferred location (I used the map to find my location coordinates).
2) Install Location Spoofer from Market. All I did was install it. I didn't do anything with it.
3) Run My Fake Location by selecting Set GPS Location. Uou will receive a notification that My Fake Location is Started.
4) Install Google Earth version 1.2.1. The APK is located in this posting.

Thanks for this fix... Worked for me!

Thanks you!

Google Earth works right of the bat on Vegan 7.

I have TnT Lite 4.4 and it didn't work with the steps mentioned in this thread. I have tethered my EVO 4G with the g tablet and get GPS working in Maps and navigation but Google Earth wouldn't work at all. It would install, but hang in launching. I then tried with the apps My Fake Location and Location spoofer, but no luck.

My fake location doesn't show up in market anymore for me since switching to TNTLite from stock OS and a sub-TNTLite market fix. I got the apk anyway, and Google Earth. Earth just gets stuck searching for location and eventually force closes or crashes my gtablet. MFL usually crashes it too, turning on or off. I found another fake gps app in market and it also crashes.
And when I say crashes it, the screen goes black and the gtab doesn't turn back on for a while.
I can't believe I had a fake gps and google earth working with stock OS but can't get them working with the mod.

I used a modified version of Butch1326's tutortial. I am running Vegan Beta 5.1.1 and this method does work on my tablet. Here is the method I used:
DO THESE STEPS IN ORDER! If you already have Earth installed, uninstall it before you do step 1.
1) Install Location Spoofer from Market.
2) After installation, go to: Settings --> Location & Security. Check on "Use wireless networks" and "Use GPS satellites" if these are not already. These options NEED to be checked on for this to work. Location Spoofer complains if they are not.
3) Go back and open Location Spoofer and click "select from map". I found a location near where I live to work with, you can do this for where ever you live. I don't think the actual location matters. Once you have found a location, select "Use this Location" at the top of the screen.
4) Change the duration to 5 minutes. This is just so you have some time to work with and the app won't stop running in the middle of the setup process.
4) Check the option, "Spoof GPS Location Too"
5) Click "Start spoofing"
6) Now install Google Earth found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10426487&postcount=9
(If this link doesn't work go to Butch1326's original post for the link)
7) Once Earth installs, click done. Then open your app drawer and open Earth. It will start to load. Your tablet may crash at this point, mine did. Though, I was a little eager and was trying to use the app while it was loading. Let it sit a few minutes and see what happens. If it runs on the first try, your done. You can stop Location Spoofer and uncheck the options under Location & Security. Enjoy Google Earth. IF YOUR TABLET DID CRASH GO TO STEP 8.
8) After your tablet reboots, let it sit a minute or two. Give the OS time to finish booting and the OS to stablize.
9) Open Earth again. Don't worry about Location Spoofer, we don't need it anymore.
10) After Earth launches, DO NOT TOUCH YOUR TABLET. It is necessary to let Earth load all the way before you do anything. I didn't touch mine for two or three minutes and advise you to do the same.
11) You're done. Earth should be running now.
If this did not work for you, there is a possibility one of the steps got messed up or you are not running Vegan 5.1.1, as this is the only rom I have tested this on. And the standard line: If you mess up your tablet, I'm not responsible.

Google Earth 2.x works without fuss
The best way to install Google Earth on the gTablet is just to find a copy of the latest version 2.0.1. It installs and runs without fuss, doesn't care if my bluetooth GPS puck is connected or not, and uses it if it is.
Just install and enjoy!

Hmmm?
I just installed Google Earth on my GTAB directly from the android market and it's running pretty smoothly.. No issues what so ever...

+1 Downloaded Google Earth 2.0.1 from my new fixed Market. Works like a champ! TNT Lite 4.4 GTab

What build prop are you using? I'm using olympus and it doesn't appear...

Amused, I posted this this morning and it is the 1st thread at the top in this topic.
"+1! First of all I am running TNT Lite 4.4. I too had tried the standard Market fix many times and just could never see all the cool apps I wanted. Went ahead and changed the build.prop as iamchoco had suggested and BINGO! Although the ro.build.fingerprint already had this line correct, I changed the ro.build.tags and the ro.build.device lines to match iamchoco's instructons. Did the standard Market fix again and it works awesome. It even seems a little faster than before. All the apps I could never get are there and downloadable and have been downloaded and installed...
The programs that I had sideloaded previously are now showing up in the Market and I am updating them through the Market now."
I haven't learned yet how to extract my .apk's yet from my GTab but if you do this fix above, the Market should work for you and show the latest Google Earth.

Alright thanks I'll give it a go

No go...what iamchoo suggested wad exactly what I was using...is it a location issue? I'm in asia.
Could you help to post the apk? Its mightily easy with root explorer. Just go to /data/apps/???.apk long press and select copy. Then paste it somewhere accessible, like the root of your internal memory which is /sdcard/ .
The ??? is the apk name. Should be something earth?

Let me know if this is right. I did as you asked. It is an apk file but the only one I found in that directory was com.google.earth.apk. Here it is...

Thanks! WOrks perfectly

You're welcome Amusedkid,
Lets get your market working. What ROM are you running? I can help you get the Full Market if you have the same ROM as me. I tried everything and could never get the Full Market. But with the tweaks from iamchocho AND then the normal Market fix, it works perfectly now. I am running TNT Lite 4.4 on GTab FRF91. Let me know if you want the exact procedure I used...

What keeps USAA Mobile from loading?

The Market app is happy to download the USAA app and attempt to load it, but it's always unsuccessful.
Any ideas why and whether something can be done about this? I'd really love to use this application.

As a 30+ year member, I wanted it too and got it to work once when I first loaded it, then no joy. Cleared data and uninstalled.
I just use Dolphin HD to go to the actual site. Works fine and goes to USAA Mobile without issue.

I was having the exact same trouble with the USAA app when my tablet arrived in the mail. I have found that the fix described in the following link will get it working for Vegan Tab 5.1 (and I would assume for any other ROM where the app is displayed but it will not install):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845175
Please post back on here if you have any luck!

Works for me
The app works fine on mine, running VEGAn-Tab 5.1.1 and Clymsen's Kernel ver. 9.

That won't let you use the camera to make deposit, though, will it?

"Working" in the sense that it will install and run for you? The market fix just changes the search results, so I can't see how that would help with installation. I have no difficulty locating the app, nor in downloading it. The problem seems to be entirely on my tablet when installation is attempted.

Would you be willing to post a copy of the .apk you're using? One can easily be created using appack.

Pulled from my Titanium Backup
Here is the .apk, though in fairness it does not work on my wife's Nextbook2 tablet. It would be nice if CWM was loadable on it, it is a decent piece of hardware, even better with a decent rom.

Thanks for posting that. Unfortunately, I can't get it to sideload.

I haven't tried to load the market on mine so I can't install the app on the Tablet. My cell phone seems to use the google mapping GPS function with the USAA mobile app. Could that be whats causing the refusal to install? I know I had to enable it to get the app to install .

That would have been my guess, but michaeljwestii has it running on his g-Tablet.
I did try using location spoofing apps and tried installing it with the CyanogenMod 7 ROM that has functioning location service over WiFi. In neither case would it even install.

mine doesnt install either

I cannot get the app to display in market on my gtablet (running CM7 nightly or stable) and I cannot get android market from the web to push it my gtablet either. So I had my son install the app (version 3.3) on his epic and i side loaded it. Run just fine for me. What kind of error is everybody getting when they try to side load the app?

The standard, un-helpful "Application not installed" notification in Package Installer.

Maybe a kernel issue. It installed from the Market just fine on 4349 (1.2 kernel). When I downgraded back to 3588, it again wouldn't install.

Works on my tab...running Vegan Ginger.
3.3 version of the USAA app.

I have had that error in a couple of situations which I think does not sound they apply to your case but here were my solutions. One was To go into ROM Manager and have it fix file permissions, reboot, then try to reinstall the app. The other one was when I already had an older app installed and tried to install a newer app. I used Titanium Backup to force uninstall the older app and then exit Titanium Backup and install the newer app. For some odd reason the older app did not show up in market.

I had the USAA app installed at one point. I was able to use FakeGPS app (from android market) to manually set my location, but that was only required for the mobile check deposit function (which worked!). All other functions were working without that.
I'm now having trouble finding the USAA app on the google market, on either my Viewsonic Gtablets (one Brilliant Corners 1.2.1, other is TNT lite, 4.4). I lost the app when reformatting my tablet. I did the market fix, although not clearly different markets (is there a way to tell?). Anyone else able to find the app? Guess I'll try to sideload from the link above.

[Q] Google Earth on Galaxy Note?

Have any of you been able to successfully install the Google Earth app on the Galaxy Note? I put the APK in and installed it, it opens but freezes on the opening screen...
Works fine on my Nexus though. If I go to the Android Market it shows that it is not available in my country so I cant download it. Strange that it works on my Nexus, though Google Earth was pre-installed in it.

Works fine for me.... I'm in the U.S. just downloaded it and played around to make sure.... I think I'm keeping it on here!

I'm not in the U.S.A. and I'm thinking it's more of an Android Market geographic restriction, and not hardware related. I have a Nexus that has it pre-installed and works perfectly.
I'm going to give the apk install another try and post back with results.
EDIT- update. installed it, but again, same results. laggy, and my phone was getting insanely hot after about 10 minutes of trying to use it. uninstalled.

Works fine here (Norway).

Works fine here in UK

Hoi, and also works fine here in Germany. Install, Start, and the blue (here are you point) shows my home place.

Wow, seems like I'm the only one with the issues.
Did you guys get Google Earth straight from the market, or was it installed manually?

Google earth working fine here ln Australia, I got mine from market

I could never get it to obtain a GPS lock. German imported version in the US. Every other GPS app works fine. Strange.. I'll try again - deleted after frustration weeks ago.

Works fine here in India installed with the market enabler there's probably just something wrong with you're apk

i don't want to root my phone, so i can't use market enabler.
i tried installing the apk file again (google earth 6.1) and same thing. it installs fine, i am able to open the app itself.
however, it will stay on the opening screen (earth in space with stars) with the rotating circle for minutes, then finally run but very laggy.
i'll try another apk and see if there's any improvement.
EDIT / UPDATE: tried another apk and now everything is smooth as butter. thanks!

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

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
This works 100% in my rooted.

How I have said, this in normaly no matter. If this doesn't work it's a matter.

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.
