[Q] Google maps not saying street names - X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone else have this problem?
I've uninstalled google maps and had the default app restored and it says the street names. When I update the app again I lose the ability to have street names spoken to me while navigating.
The one thing I did notice was that I had to click accept for a "Beta" version.

New Google Maps question - Offline maps

You can still save offline maps by typing in Ok Maps on your search bar, but it doesn't tell you where the maps are saved on your phone. Does anyone have a clue?

[Q] Google Maps Update affecting Contacts

Hello all,
The recent update for Google Maps to 7.0.2 is really nice and has some nice features. But I'm wondering if anyone has noticed the impacts to their contacts/address book? I have my contacts addresses stored and when I select it, before the Google map update, it loaded in Google maps. After the update it loads only in my other GPS program, Co-pilot. I've gone to my apps and cleared the defaults for co-pilot and that doesn't make a difference. I've found a work around so far which is to search your contact in Google maps, but being able to load the address then navigate from the contacts/address book was a nice feature.

[Q] Google maps not reading street names

Hi I just bought a brand spanking new Telus Samsung Galaxy S6 and tried using google maps for the first time, only to realize that it does not read out the street names (it only says "turn left", "turn right" etc)
Anybody know of a solution? I installed Google TTS service app and that still did not help

Google account disappears occasionaly

Hi everyone,
I'm on the latest available Android 5.1.1 firmware (L00C17B851)
When I got the phone it had no gapps at all. I installed Google Play Store from Huawei build-in market app, launched it and entered my google account.
After that I got GoogleContactsSyncAdapter to sync all my contacts from xda. It worked smoothly.
Until I installed Google Play Games. I logged in with one of my games, played a little and noticed that all my contacts are gone.
My Google account is gone as well. Play Store just wont start.
I removed Play Store, cleared cash on Google Play Services, rebooted the phone and set up everything one more time.
I have been living without Play Games app since. Until today when I noticed that "backup to google" function isn't enabled. I turned it on and my Google account disappeared again. Damn!
I know the workaround for this problem, but is there a way to fix this?

Logging into Google Maps

Hi guys,
is there any possible way to let me Login into my Google Maps account? That´s like the only thing I miss on my else google free phone.
Not unless someone finds a way to Install GMS on it.
The one thing you could try is to use GMaps via the Browser then you should be able to log in
I use 10.49.3 version, to have guidance (it's the latest version where I could find that guidance).
Can't login ...
Install Gspace by searching via Huawei App Gallery and you will be able to install Google Map with your account
The only problem I'm facing is that after reaching my location by navigation I can't press done to stop the navigation.
I have Maps 10.67.2 on Gspace 1.0.6.
If I open the app and set my home as destination (being home already), it's saying "welcome home" and I can press "done" (it works).
