Wow it's a huge upgrade from the old app. Running it now on XenonHD rom and I'm really loving the new interface, thanks for the heads up!
Update available on the Play store.
The Google Maps update, v7.0.2, is available on the play store now for AHD users . Running ReVolt ROM.
Is also built into my HoloBlur rom, loving the new app so so much.

Am i the only one that does not like it? the old version worked perfectly fine for me, and since this upgrade I don't have voice navigation... is it maybe an issue with xenon ROM? if any has the old version apk laying around I'd love a copy.
It doesn't access "starred" / favorite places. I uninstalled update and will Waite till this is fixed.

Mine talks to me and automatically pulls up my starred places..

Just found out starred places are now called "saved places" and are found by touching the people icon on the map search bar.

So is the nova 2 game on the android market working? Some ppl have sed it does but most say it doesnt. Is it possible that it may be cuz of the gingerbread roms?

It was working on my stock rom but I haven't installed it since I went to cm7 because fps don't work very well on a touch screen imo.

I brought it. It's not bad but there are some freezes/lag on multiple attack. Game looks good for a phone game.

!!!!BUY IT!!!! Then go online and google search Nova HD 1.0.3 download a un-hacked one, you already own a license, install it and then let it download its own files. Works great on Sense 3.0 roms.
I highlighted buy it, so no one thinks im promoting hacked software.

Just flashed a custom 4.2.2 N7 rom and sure enough, it's there - interesting enough, it's showing up also on my HTC DI2 running GingerBread (custom rom written over a year ago,) no prompt or option to cancel/postpone or decline, just auto-updated (except that it did not have the Location & Search sub-menu like the N7)
Suffice to say - easily integrated without crashing or freezing, enhancement across the board for all Google devices ... I think. :highfive:
The icon looks very unattractive. Now my app drawer has 3 similar icons side by side that are blue (Google Search), green (Google Settings), and red (Google+)
Hhmm, I don't have it. Dirty AOKP. I'll reboot and see

OK, after reboot it's there.

Hey quick question I'm a Swype user since the beginning.I activated Swype and away I went.I notice all of a sudden it is not working correctly when replying to emails. It works on texts and even posting here...but when replying to emails it doesn't capitalize or space between words although it is set up correctly and working on every other application but the native mail app which is very nice. anyone else experience this? It did work correctly for a day.thanks!!!

The problem you mentioned is exactly what was wrong with the beta version so I'm almost sure you are not on the latest Swype version. If you were rooted (which I assume you're not since you're on stock ROM) I would suggest to delete the apps with TitaniumBackup and buy the .99cent app on the Play Store (worth it, it's amazing). Else what you can do is wait for an OTA that may included an updated version of Swype. What you can do right now is see if you could download or update official Swype from Play.

Download the 6.9 apk file
Uninstall Google apps by dragging the icon to the edit (turns to uninstall)
Go to the apk file ( i use es explorer ) and click to install.
NOTE: make sure to remove the auto update apps in the play store to keep it from auto updating Google maps.

Most recent version is 6.14.3 from Feb 20, 2013
This version is still the 'old' style, but the most updated version of it. 6.9.0 was from June 27, 2012, whereas the 6.14.3 build was from February 20, 2013. From the same website you posted just a different link http://www.androiddrawer.com/9559/download-maps-6-14-3-app-apk/
I have 6.14.4 in a Titanium Backup set. That was the last version I got from Google Play before the crap versions hit my phone. I'll try to find somewhere to upload it.

it's not a crappy app =/
the problem it's adreno libs, try to use nokia here.com in the browser and you will see artifacts.. we can't use the new adreno libs because it's needed a new kernel supporting ION memory manager.. actually android 4.2 is running using legacy support for adreno in the kernel, it happened to every phone using adreno 205..

How to prevent MAPS from auto updating
You can prevent Google Maps from updating to the new, crappy version by selecting it in Titanium Backup. When the window opens with Backup! Freeze! Un-instal! showing at the top, swipe to the left to bring up the SPECIAL FEATURES window, and in that window select Detach from Market under the Playstore/Market heading.
Voila. Even if you are set up for auto updates to all your other apps, Google will not auto update your Maps app after you have done this.
I've tried that. Works fine.....
Until you reboot. Then it's re-attached to the Play Store.

Could something else be making it show back up in the updates after a reboot? I always turn off auto update in the play store right after it's loaded on a new rom install.
After I detach from market it won't show in updates, buy shows up again after a reboot.

have you tried turning off update notification?
Not sure how that will help?
Notifications don't include it before the reboot, do after.
And whether or not notifications are enabled, the update shows back up when I go into play store after a reboot.
What I would prefer is a permanent detach, one that survives reboots. Is it possible?

Yo! So, I know this phone is kinda old, but I'm still rocking it. My question is based on the fact that I've tried pretty much every custom ROM and I'm currently using CM10 4.2 and I'm really not digging the contacts and messaging app that comes with it and most of the custom roms for jellybean.
So, I am wondering if it possible to replace the apk with an alternative from the play store?
Any help would rule. Thank you so much to the developers for making this phone so customizable and easy to change!

Try aoip it up to date all other roms are discontinued
There are several dialing and message apps in the play store. I think the contacts app I use is Rocket Contacts, or something like that. As for messaging apps, I will have to look at which I am using, but there are several, most of which are good, I would imagine.
