Menu issues
What do you guys get when you press the menu button when in the new Music app? I'm not getting the "Settings" option, just search shuffle all stuff like that.

I get the same thing search and shuffle.

Can Google make it so when my apps are updating, it only does it one at a time? The phone becomes practically unusable when 10 apps are trying to download at the same time. Super annoying.

just don't use your phone for a minute while they update

Maybe there's a possibility, like the netflix mod, to bypass the root check by someone that has the knowledge to do that sort of thing

If I install this, can I receive another Market update in the future? Or I should again install via APK?

Alright I think I have figured out that you cannot review content that was downloaded using the other market I think? Yeah it is pretty confusing if anyone could clarify this a bit more?

I manually updated this, works fine. I do have a problem though, maybe it's me ;o)
How do you manually update an App after installing this latest Market app.
Example:
I've installed the new market place and notice that the Amazon UK app had an update this morning. I have set this app to manual update, but when I open the app through the new market, the only 2 buttons are 'open' and 'uninstall', there's no update button.
Confused? I am... any ideas guys?

so this is samsung s` voice working on 4x?

can someone please upload the file elsewhere. why the hell would i need to authenticate the download using facebook?!

When i try to log in with my fake fb account it just says "Abuse blocked". Why the hell would anyone ever upload anything to a place like this?

LG is busy with Quick Voice, this is a look a like of Sire. But i'm not sure if the 4x HD gets it.

S voice needs the Touchwiz framework for that to work. Besides, Google Now is far superior than Svoice

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?

Looking for Old MAPS apk

Hey guys I'm travelling overseas and I wanted to find the old Maps apk where I can cache offline maps, is there one floating around I can grab?

If you don't have success with the old maps, in the mean time you can cache using this method:

For me on SGS4, Okay Maps (with capital O and M worked).
