[Q] Google Street view - Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps

Now i'm probably being a bit thick here but I cannot seem to get street view working on google maps. I have a map open but can't see the "little man" icon to drag onto the map. I have also tried a long press on the map without any luck.
Is it possible ?

Yes it is possible. Tap and hold for a couple of seconds. That brings up a small box with an address in it. Click on that box, and then click on the little man street view icon.

Google Streetview stopped working?

Has Google Streetview stopped working in v4.0 of GMM?
Or is this an issue with the Leo?
On my Touch Pro I would just hold the stylus to the screen and a menu popped up with Street view as an option.
On the HD2 I can't see, to get to this. A finger on the screen brings up the address of where I am touching and a small picture that looks like it could be Street View, but I can't select it.
It this my fat monk fingers or has it stopped working on the Leo or in this version of GMM?
If it is still there, I'm guessing it doesn't work with the compass yet (for turning the view).
Ta,

go to menu-layers and there you will find street view hope that i helped you!
FONTS???
Hi,
see my screenshot, does anybody know how to fix the font? I suppose that's the problem. No other problem has this problem,only google maps.

was curious when i saw this post. I dont get street view near me either as i dont live in a city. I can confirm that street view is available in London but i havent tried other cities. I just held on the map until the location was displayed and then clicked that to get more options and one was streetview. im presuming other cities such as Liverpool and Manchester may have street view also.

That's bad news indeed...i've got a lot of mods done allready. Thanks for your answer I'll try uninstalling some cabs, what worked for you?
Simply uninstalling Googlemaps will also work and is quit less time consuming

reinstalling google maps does not help.it will stay the same.at least it did for me.i would try first some apps which are older or using simple types of GUI.i had this problem with GPS Speedo app as far as i can remember.
I just pressed the screen/card and get a menu. Here you can chose streetview!
I found it yesterday, but its being a bit flaky finding places that I know have streetview (as I've looked at them before on my Touch Pro).
It seems that in this new version (4.0) you hold a finger on the screen and a cross appears. It then automatically tried to find the adress where that cross is.
When it find the address a ballon pops up over the cross with the adress AND a small streetview picture.
Tapping that Streetview picture does nothing!
You have to press the 'Select' softkey at the bottom which brings up a menu.
Briefly, at the moment, I see 'checking streetview' but streetview is not an option on the menu that pops up. Yesterday streetview WAS on that menu.
So... that's where it's gone in the new version, bt it seems to be being a bit flaky at the moment.

Install latest maps update and choose maps in live wallapers. Very simple.

Check the market for the latest version of Maps... 4.1 will leave a new Live Wallpaper to utilize...
Shouldn't be that hard

Thanks, I was looking inside the maps application. Didn't realize it was added to live wallpapers.
Tapping on the maps wallpaper zooms in. Is there a possibility to zoom out again. Cannot find a way.

Yeah, I noticed this too...
only way i managed was to go back to live wallpaper, select the map. Once there by pinch/zoom motion i finally managed to zoom out though took a bit of trying.
needs a fix

Tap with two fingers to get it to zoom out.
Tried to update mine, but I'm getting an error, package file incorrect. I'm on Modaco's custom alpha 15.
Can't get mine updated as I could even find the map...sigh in Malaysia by the way anyone got the apk
Looks like the map wall paper does not use the GPS to find the location. The location on the wallpaper is far off from the correct location. Is there a way to make it use the GPS?
i updated and no live wallpaper...
Hi,
I wonder, will this also work with HTC Sense on my Legend??

needs 2.1. so it is only working on the nexus one for the moment
I got mine working on a rooted HTC Hero running Damage ROM. It's pretty cool I must admit however I can't zoom out like someone mentioned earlier and it takes the speed boost from the 2.1 upgrade back around the speed of Fresh 1.1. It's cool though, although I feel I will be switching back in forth to my Sense.
Single tap with two fingers to zoom out
Double tap with one finger to zoom in
Crashes sometimes...
Please don't resurrect dead threads.
Thank you.

Chrome copy/paste

How do I copy past url addresses from chrome to things like email / sms? I tried to long press the Web link in the address bar but all that does is zoom in on a specific word.
Any ideas?

i faced with the same trouble
the solution is double tap, but u have to move finger down in second tap. So tap - tap+down.
Not the best thing after moving from ios.
still have no clue how to copy text in playstore
Ah I think I've got it. Try triple tapping the text

Kind of a triple tapping but the logic behind it is that the first tap is to get focus (just move to the text area) and then the double tap will bring you the options to copy-cut-paste.
Nope. I cant select text using double tap. Not even after focusing.
It's mostly system wide (email, sms, etc). Tap to focus, doubletap to select all. Move sliders to select what you want

Weird that it doesn't work for you. I was puzzled by inconsistent results over the last few days but clicking once to select the URL in chrome, then double clicking (without moving) brings up the two markers and the usual options at the top of the screen every time. It's annoying that you can't copy text from the Play Store, though. Why can't I copy text from every app, always, in exactly the same way? With the power of Android/the Z3 it should really be possible to copy text from images, not struggle with this basic stuff which has worked on Windows for 20+ years!

As i mentioned earlier, i have to tap+(tap+down). Strange behavior. My device is z3 compact, maybe, that is the point ?)
In a fact, my colleague with Samsung on 4.1.2 cant copy text from Play Store too
double tapped worked for me, thank goodness for this thread I was freaking out big time.

Hi @Flyview cool concept. You asked for feedback. I think you should allow the transitions to be slower 2 seconds is to fast.
I don't really understand the seconds of the transition is it random ?
You might want to show a small overlay as a tutorial on first start I found the one tap to pause which is nice and the two tap to like, but I liked a picture without knowing what the 2 tap would do and I don't know which one it was
I'd like a go back feature too, if you see a picture and right when it disappears you notice something but you can't go back, so just a see previous like a swipe right.
Living in Paris I learned with your app that most pictures on instagram are of the Eiffel tower
Getting a blank screen many times.

It will show a new picture whenever there is a new one available (up to minimum of every second), this will be configurable. I have to think of a good way to show previous pictures. I was thinking the old ones would become scrollable below but if someone new comes to the app they may think it's like Instagram where the point is to scroll down. And yes, intro overlay should be added as well. That's awesome about Paris haha!

What mode are you in? Are you watching a tag or area?

good idea, but this is what I get right after connecting. no access to anything!
btw does it work with gps only or can it localise based on network?
Cool idea but I think the suggestions above are a must. Keep it up man

Hmmm that's not good. Do you have Google apps installed? What's your Android OS and ROM? It'll work with whatever location provider is available, GPS is not necessary.
Do you mean "Google apps device policy"? no
I run 4.4.2 on Asus A86 device
@Flyview nice app i have few suggestions
1. Ability to select the distance range for nearby pictures
2. Ability to click the user of the pic uploader, which takes directly to their profile so that we can follow them.
3. Custom picture refresh time.
4. Add an overlay which has buttons to Pause/Play Previous/Next buttons.
tried uninstall, reinstall and login.
there is an error warning warning telling me i have to enable cookies in my browser, or disable private mode? then this blank screen all the time. only way to reach login page is uninstall/reinstall

Oh ok that makes sense then. You need to enable cookies in Chrome (or whatever browser the Instagram login page is using). Otherwise LivePics can't log you in to your Instagram account.

well i checked and cookies are enabled in every browser installed: default, chrome, firefox, opera. not sure witch one instagram is using. will dig deeper in settings.
Same problem, I only get a white screen. Running KiKat on a stock TMobile Note 3. Tried clearing data. Hangs on login screen usually, then it will give the login/cookies error message. If I get past that, back to white screen. Tried uninstalling, then reinstalling - same results.
04/14 - update installed this week - fixed the problem - working fine now.

So do you ever see the screen where you enter username/password for instagram or does the message come before that? A screenshot would be great!
error message appear after login. then blank screen.
