Google Maps won´t download offline maps

Hey all,
Tried the board search for a possible solution to my prob, to no avail so far:
I am using a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, GP5110, android 4.0.3.
Fully rooted, avast! security installed as firewall, running in whitelist mode - I rather allow those few application I like internet access and have everything else blocked by default, with the ongoing permission-hunger of most app developers I figured to be better safe than sorry.
My problem: Googles` Maps App is running perfectly fine, however when I try to download any offline maps (settings -> make available offline) it just opens a tab called "My Places", showing my map indicating 0.0MB/0.0MB, download never starts.
I tried whitelisting a number of different system processes - such as was necessary to get the youtube app running - but was not successful identifying the correct ones.
Anybody out there who could help?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Chris
Can you not turn the firewall off , download the maps you want then turn it back on ? I have managed to download offline maps but avast firewall was not on ..... just a thought.
Would probably work, but I'm rather looking for a permanent solution than a workaround... Thanks for your suggestion though!
Go to settings -> Clear all offline maps
Then open Google Play, uninstall Google Maps, then update Google Maps, Restart Device,
Now it works on mine. There should be a notification section called "Downloaded Maps" which tells you the progress, as well as inside Google maps.

Google Music - Always ON - HELP

I have recently noticed that "Google Music" is always running when I check Active Application via Task manager.
Even if I End it manually it gets on again automatically even when I have not used this particular app.
I am on official latest JB and I have done things like restart phone and manually stopping it from application, but all in vain.
Plz Help

Cmon u mean everybody have same problem and they all install sum app frm store to circumvent it - Not possible.
There has to to be sum normal fix within phone - Maybe sum more ppl can chime in
Its a google app like play store and maps. It will always run in the background. There is a way, root your phone, delete the apk from system app so that it becomes a normal app and use greenify to hibernate the app. So far tested on maps, google music, google search and google plus. Apps were hibernated when not using and able to launch like a normal app.
Tried on play store and play services. End up in a laggy phone and hangs till i did a restore. So stay out of these 2 app.

[Q] Version of Google Play-Services

Hello and good morning,
as i have big issues with push notifications (gmail, whatsapp and some other apps),
could you please tell me, the version number installed in your device?
(settings - application manager - all - google play-services)
after long testing, i found at that this issue is being caused by this service,
google search will find a huge thread "Gmail app is not syncing automatically on my phone"
a silent update of google play services installed 8.3.01 (2385995-034) at my device.
shortly after that, push notifications suddenly stopped.
thank you

Have you checked your apps ops settings? Keep awake must be enabled now I think... I just fixed OMNI ROM driven S3 mini of my friend and he still kept the latest official services.
Otherwise, DL Google store 8.4.20 and Google play services 8.1.15 (2250156-034), go in to airplane mode, uninstall updates for these two, substitute your original Store and Services with indicated above in the priv system folders, do the game with terminal chattr +1 on the store, disable update service on the store, reboot, enable the net and voila. Naturally, do all the backups before all of that and you should be good for all times (my One+1 is not updating the store nor services anymore doing these steps). NOTE: I b0rking something, revert to prev. backups or previous backups and thinker it again.
My wife's S3 Mini has no problem , cause of her setup (no apps ops in between and no services disabled).

HELP!!!GOOGLE PLAY STORE and SERVICES not working on Lenovo K3 Note with Vibe UI 3.0

Hello Friends,
I have Lenovo K3 Note with Vibe UI 3.0. I have Playstore and Services both installed but the services used to again and again get force stopped. So I've disabled it right now. The problem is whenever I run Playstore, it shows up a white screen for less than a second and then exits without any error message. I have Playstore and Services both installed from beginning but they never work. Also any other app that needs play services also does not work, giving error message that your phone does not support play services. Also on opening google settings icon from home screen the force stopped error occurs. My Playstore version is 6.7.12E-[0] all 2884155 and Google Play Services are version 9.0.82. If there is any way that I can use Google Play Store and Services properly, I would like to know about it.
Any help at all would be appreciated very very much. PLEASE HELP ME OUT WITH THIS PROBLEM. THANKS.

Which ROM removes Google play services?

I'm seeing update to 604 OTA on my brand new Remix mini but I had read that the new releases remove Google mobile services, basically ruining a huge reason people buy this device. If I want to continue using Google mobile services should I just stick with the stock ROM and work with the limitations and the various bug fixes?
Wow that was several updates ago. The mini still has Google Services. It was only removed to overlay some ground work and to finish talks with Google. If it does disappear after you update, just go to the Remix Central app to download the service back onto the mini.

Thxx Amora, that's what I thought but I'm on the device right now and there is a big pop up warning on the 604 update that says if you agree to this update, Google Play services and all your apps will be disabled and removed. You can choose not to upgrade and continue using these services.
I assume this is an error in the warning from what you are stating. I'm updating it despite the warning and will see.
So just to confirm, this device still has Play Store / GAPPS? They have a 40% off special and I want one.
The process of rooting the device is still a bit unpleasant, and as such I can't tweak options and patches to get APKs working. I'd rather have the Play Store outright.

Yes. The remix can still use Google apps. You just have to install Google services and the apps yourself instead of having them come pre-loaded now.
And as is often the case with hardware, the box will come with an old version of the os installed. The first time you hook it up it will check for updates and you will get the warning since you are moving from a factory version of the os which has the apps installed to a new version which does not.
Once the update completes, open the remix central app from the drawer (or desktop if you have a shortcut there) and scroll the bottom to find Google services installer. Download and follow the instructions, and when it tells you to - reboot. Once that's done open the "app store" app (also in app drawer) and install/update Google play (handy dandy search in the top right) and the icon will reappear on your desktop/in the app drawer if for some reason it vanished in the first place.
Note if you previously set up settings/accounts - you will need to do it again (so you have to give the store your Google account again as this was wiped out during the update).
