You can try google map offline. Download offline map when you are on wifi.

does it also finds our location offline...

Sure! Ace has a GPS module. You can try it with a gps info app on the Play Store (fix will take a few minutes without internet connection and be sure to be outside in and open space).

U can have offline maps but they dont seem to function as well as online maps, because they instantaneously detect your location based on GPS with needs internet to locate you !
And when u want any directions or navigation better to use Online Gmaps, !

It means you need data connection for the GPS applications you use.... As I don't know which applications your are using, just search in applications thread there is a thread about offline navigation apps.
Data connection is needed by many apps, to download maps when needed. You are looking for an app that can use maps on sdcard.
All this has nothing to to with GPS itself.
Su660 has stock navigation app what is named Tmap. But it supports only in Korea.
You need navigation app that supports your country.

Yes, SU660 Has Stock Navigation App Tmap. but That has Google Maps, So you should run Google Maps Navigation Service after update Google Maps.
you should modify the parameters in GPS.conf.
For example, supl,NTP server etc

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
Notice that sygic works normally

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.
My phone not 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.

[Q] Getting MapmyIndia to work with google Navigation

The default navigation application from google is not working. Is there any way to sync mapmyindia offline maps with google navigation or any other navigation software.?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429126&highlight=google+maps
why waste money on map my India when you can use google navigation for free.. its not officially out try but the modded version from the above link will work fine, I am yet to find any bugs.
I use this often when I go to India. the map's got way more details than mmi .
I find the online maps a lot delaying . If only we could synchronize offline maps it would be much better. Any help regarding this ?

Well if you go to google maps settings, in the labs there is an option called precache map. So if you cache your route via wifi before your journey the maps will load fast and you won't lose precious mobile data.
So what do you say ?
google navigation is fantastic the rerouting feature works like a charm
And outside the cities mapmyindia hardly has any coverage
Pls give it a try and I am sure you won't go back to mapmyindia.
(unless of course you are an undercover map my India employee here for info )
If you want offline navigation
Sygic is working fine. on both gingerbread and ICS.
Navigon, Ndrive and Map my india also working fine on Gingerbread, but didn,t tried on ICS. (I always prefer google and sometime Sygic)
Im going off on a long toad trip tomorrow. Will check and post back comments. Thanks again for help.
Note : was using sygic for bada and hence was asking bout it. ;-);-)

Maps not loading on HTC WP 8S

Hi everyone,
I just bought an HTC WP 8S, and I have an issue with the Maps application. When launching the app, it looks for my position, but doesn't load any maps. All I see is the dot representing my position on a dark background. I googled for others with the same issue, but only found this thread ( http://bit.ly/VWRUGQ ) on a Microsoft forum, where there is no answer.
I tried to restart the device, and I'm sure I have a data connexion. So, does anyone else have this issue ? And maybe a solution ? (Please don't tell me to reset the device...)
Thanks !
What maps app is running on it? Bing or Nokia maps?
Well since it's Windows Phone 8 I believe that maps are provided by Nokia

What about space in your phone?

The reason I ask is because I've seen some WP8 devices still with Bing maps but any how, you have to go into the settings of the maps app and download the maps for your location before they will show up. If it's just doning nothing at all you might have to do a factory reset.
I have more than 1GB available so I think it is not related to memory.
I can't download maps without WiFi =/ But isn't it supposed to work without downloading them ?

[Q] GPS problem

Hi my gps won't lock on satellites using waze or igo... Anyone knows how I can fix that?

You could try top ntp from the play store. It worked for me on my i9001 with cm9.
Read the instructions&Good luck!
You could try faster fix app to change the ntp servers and something else, search for it. Also GPS Status or GPS Test app has an option to update your A-GPS data for a much faster fix.
