Is there anyone that got bruts map working?
The latest version, won't work for me.
First it shows the "What's new" page, and after I press OK, the program hanged.
Then I force close it and restart it again, it shows that Current Location Unavailable, but the normal GMaps works.

I haven't tried Brut's map on the NS. The only reason I used it before was the offline cacheing of map data, which the new Maps from Google does, so didn't feel the need for it any more.
Have you checked with the author to see if he's updated for Gingerbread compatibility yet?
Yeah, I posted in the xda forum main thread for bruts, the author haven't replied yet, probably he is busy and he do not have a nexus s to try with.

I haven't had my hd2 for too long so im still on stock rom if that helps any. i recently deleted ny mobi tv app by mistake. i then re downloaded it from this very forum. it installed, k restarted my phone and all was well. when i open the app i can view a channel if i hurry or i get an update message. there's no other option but to update or exit. the problem is, overtime i update and restart my phone and go to the app,it like automatically disables my 3g and says that i should enable ny connection in order to start the initial setup. any way to get it to stop asking for the update? or to stop the app from disabling my 3g? thanks for reading help would be appreciated. *by the way, sorry for the lack of some spaces. i just typed this on my hd2. i think the space bar should be more sensitive than the other keys
Moved as not software release.
oh ok. i thought that an app would be a software release. im not understanding all of this. but why move it and not offer any help.
Hello, I'm new here. I have tried to search for this and nothing recent came up but apologises if I missed something.
Google Maps never seems to close (restarts after killing). I don't know if this happened before the Maps update (couple of days ago). I have turned off buzz and latitude yet its used 11% of my battery (and I've not used it once). Is there anyway to stop this happening as my current battery life is awful?
I'm using a HTC Desire on Orange UK if anybody needs to know.
Thanks, Rowan.
Do you have Google Latitude enabled ? If so it's constantly reporting your location ...

Ah turns out I did, I thought i'd disabled but I must not have.
It's now disabled but still alyways runs but no longer is in the battery usage page, is this a problem or should I jsut ignore it?
Thanks, Rowan.

Hi. This drove me crazy too. Try this.
1. Open browser normally
2. Visit any site other than your home page
3. Set this site as your Home Page
4. Revisit old Home Page
5. Reset this to Home Page
Voila!! Google Maps stops. I assume it will work for any app that keeps running.
This is the second time in the last 2 days that I've received this error message when using Maps. I'm running a MT3G with SuperD 1.11 ROM. I've never had this problem before until now so it's perplexing. Here's the scenario:
I open Maps and do a search for a business location. It finds it and then pops up an error that states:
"Google has disabled use of the maps API for this location. The client IO provided is not valid for this site."
You can close the message box to make it go away and things APPEAR to work fine. But, I'm not 100% sure.
Has anyone else come across this? Is it something to be concerned about (functionality-wise)? Any fixes?
Thanks!
Nobody else have this problem, I suppose?
Hello!
My Galaxy R (Austria, 2.3.6) will show 180° wrong compass information in Google Maps. When GPS is not active the arrow will point to the exact opposite direction the phone is looking. When 3D-Compass mode is activated the buildings shown in front of me will be behind me.
Other Compass Apps (tested "Compass" from catch.com from Market) will work fine.
I've also compared to an ZTE-Blate, the Blade was always correct, Galaxy R always wrong in Google Maps. Compass showed the same info for both phones.
*#0*# -> sensor -> magnetic sensor:
The green line will always show North
I think this is a google maps problem, i wanted to ask for confirmation on other phones before reporting it to Google&Samsung.
Can with an Galaxy R confirm this?
Mine shows it correctly. Where do you live? If you live at the southern hemisphere your compass may be preset for the northern one, since the ROM you use is for Austria.

I don't think thats the case. The magnetic sensor works by actually detecting the magnetic field in the surroundings.
I would suggest OP to update / reinstall Google Maps, its a software problem only with Google Maps and nothing else. As it is working with other apps its working correctly.
Hope it helps.
Hello!
I live in Austria and this problem occured with the original ROM and so i updated via kies, and it is still present. It is an original Drei branded phone with no modifications except root via cwm.
My maps version is 6.2.0 (Settings->Info will show: 6.2.0 (#6020014) gmm-android-samsung with platform android:samsung-GT_I9103-GT_I9103 and i can not uninstall it, since it came within the ROM. I tried to clear Data/cache for maps and tried uninstalling upgrades for Google maps (then its version 6.0.0). NUnfortunately I was not able to solve my problem.
I am pretty sure that the magnetic/geographic poles will not switch at the equator, so no adjustment for this should be necessary.
Also all other compass functions will work correctly, even google sky maps will show north correctly.
@mrsaccess:
Thank you for trying, now i know the problem is not on all phones. I would like to know if it is software dependent. I assume you do not have the Drei Firmware, can you tell me which firmware you have?
If someone with the Drei Firmware reads this can you please test, if this will also affect you? Note: GPS must have no lock, the arrow has to turn if you turn your phone to reproduce this. Try pointing your phone to North and see if the arrow in google maps will also point to North.
I have the original 2.3.4 that came with the device.
The problem has magically disappeared on my phone... Wow....
I also had a small problem with with a website (german wikipeda fir "Gin") which would "crash" the browser everytime I zoomed in, which i could reproduce for 2 days, after these two dayse it worked fine again.
The phone seems to solve all problems by itself...
mine too..... zskk5 hong kong...
Mine too still has Gmaps problem

How did the problem vanish by itself.. Pleas recollect and let me know what could have corrected it. Even my phone shows reverse direction in google maps but all fine with the compass apps
If anybody else aware of solution, please help.
Note: I have already tried, re installing.
Hi, My google now stopped speaking some answers like what's the temperature, do i need an umbrella, whats the time, what is 1 usd in gbp
I downloaded 4 apps and played a video and turned the video volume down and this happened.
I deleted the apps, full media volume now, still the same error.
I deleted the google search, google now and reinstalled.
I deleted all history pressed retrain google now.
I checked Speech Output on.
Nothing has helped, it is still not working for basic commands, it is responding for things like add reminder,etc.
It is also showing a different search result for temperature and not saying anything.
I found that when I disable or switch off Web & App Activity section of Activity controls, it works to some extent but still not speaking, but why, I even deleted everything but if its on google now won't respond to basic things.Please help.
support.google.com/websearch/answer/465
I also learnt that when it on, all my search pages end with "You're seeing a basic version of this page optimised for your connection speed. Switch to standard version"
But when Web & App Activity is off it doesn't show this and works fine and speaks, there is no problem with my connection.
Android Version Number 5.1.1
Device Model moto g 3 xt1550
Google App Version Number 5.4.28.19.arm
Language used with "Ok Google" english us
Please help and reply, wasted hours trying to correct this. I really appreciate any help.

Thanks for your reply, I have already tried that still nothing.
Is there a way to force google search to all search pages to standard version and not basic version of this page optimised for my connection speed, without Web & App Activity off, as it doesn't show this and works fine and speaks when its off, also there is no problem with my connection.
Anyone else has any help to offer?

Did you clear the data and cache of the gnow. Do that it may work for you.
