alroger CM10.1, Autorotation and Google Maps - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

GM everybody,
I cannot post yet in the development forum so I have to make it here in the Q&A section.
I've installed the CM10.1 TWRP and, with the exception of the known issues, the ROM works (quite) perfectly.
Some people complains that screen auto-rotation often stops working for some reason and a reset is necessary. I never met such issue till last sunday when I've downloaded and installed from Play Google Maps with Navigator.
Once installed and started maps and/or Navigator, after a while autorotation freezes in portrait or Landscape mode depending on the latest usage for the application. To fix that you must restart the device, I haven't been able to reset the accelerometer in other ways.
Yesterday, after the n-th hang for autorotation I tried cleaning the Dalvik-Cache and system cache from TWRP but again using Maps for a hilw autorotation stopped to work again.
The only way to fix it has been to remove Maps from the device...probably it is enough to do not open it at all.
Did somebody else experience the same issue?

Wow, 183 reads and no answer.
Btw, the ptoblem looks to be Google Maps.
No idea on why it males rotation stuck.

I'm using the latest version (20130802) and no issues with auto rotation using maps or navigation.

[Q] no blue arrowhead of google map

After locating myself on google map, there is no blue arrowhead representing my location. Only a blue dot appears. With other programs, I ve found that the compass of my device is working properly.
P.S: I am using 2.3.4 and Google map is the latest version
Any opinions about what happens?
Yea u r right but when u move the arrow will appear.... i faced it too when i was driving my car....

did u have the same problem before? compass used to appear immediately even i was standing still. it would be very troublesome now.(i have not yet tried whether the arrow will really appear again!)
No i dint had that prob before... i feel its bcz of new update of map maybe....
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk
I'm having the same issue, since i installed Google Maps 6 or something. In other programs compass works fine. In Google Maps v. 5.2 or something compass also works fine.
P.S. Now on 20n with Google Maps 6.3 - and still no luck with that.
Of course arrow appears when you move with GPS fixed to the satellites. It just draws vector from your previous location to current location. Compass is another thing - it shows your heading immediately, without GPS fix and even when you stand still.
i am so frustrated now....
anyone know how to report this problem to Google map? i ve done so on feedback on android market and google map forum. but seems, they dont care
besides, no one else has come across this problem? it seems no others have talked about this in the internet
I had same problem with google maps v6. So I downgrade the app to v5.12.0 and the blue arrow is back

Also, as a workaround, installing google maps [brut] 4.6 worked for me (as I was unable to remove/downgrade stock maps from unrooted phone)
Same bug with V20E Vietnam (tested google map v6 and 6.5 stock and 6.5 ownhere)
I think kernel stock LG bug !!!!
Someone test with rom CM7....it can working???

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.

I have faced the same issue to fix it just install this fix
http://www.paranoid-rom.com/index.php?dir=&file=gapps-hybrid.zip
have a nice nagavation
I can't get it to work either with CM9 on an epic 4g (not touch).
I also have absolutely no idea how to install that paranoid thing...
I was able to install an older version, and it ran and the menus worked, but when it tried to show a map of any kind it would just stick there unless I hit the menu button to go back into the menus.
Any ideas?
Google Framework will solve your problem.
It's because your phone do not have google service framework which i guess Sygic 11.2.6 rely on it to acquire GPS signal. Latest Sygic version 12.x.x seems to fix this bug of crashing if no google framework available.
The easiest way to test whether ur phone has google framework is: Launch google maps, then trying to go to it's setting menu, maps will crash. Another way is that if you installed Google Play, it will never work without google framework.
The fix is to install google framework and if you are on 4.0.4, search/download gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip on internet and follow guides to flash it onto your phone, then you will be fine. It's quite easy and no risk at all.
You don't need to root your phone to install the framework.

...and it runs android 4.0.4.
I too suffer from not being able to get Sygic running, and get the error message that it has stopped working.
I too deleted the two files mentioned above, but still no go. Those two files get written back on initialization, but still it errors.
I have found the gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip file on the net and downloaded it.
I put this folder in the main directory of the tablet, but still it does not work.
I fear I may be placing the files in the wrong location? Is there a correct place I should put them that would trigger the program to work?
I was also unable to find the pps-hybrid zip...maybe that is what I need?
Sorry for my nuisance, but I am very raw on android, as this is my first use of a tablet.
Hoping someone may be able to assist me?
Thanks.......

hi,
I have found a solution of the sygic crash problem everytime it is started.
Just follow this:
Just before starting the sygic, switch on the wifi on your device (doesnt matter whether you have a wifi network in range or not) then switch on sygic (11.2.5 or 11.2.6) it should run normally now.
It has worked for me, I am using ICS 4.0.3. everytime after reboot this has to be done once, after that you can switch off wifi and restart sygic any no. of times. let me know if this works for u.

Kpsikand

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 ?

Google navigation disappears after running Wisepilot for the first time

Just as in title. My Google navi worked fully fine, till I ran wisepilot for the first time (wanted to just check it out, but it's not that good as I need so I never ran it again). Right now there is absolutely no trace of Google navi ever being installed on my SP. Anyone met the same problem? Is there a way to fix it without reflashing? (can't flash, away from home, no computer, and I really do need that Google's navi)

That's because of Google's maps update. Navigation is now a part of maps app and hence not anymore a launcher icon..
