Team EOS Rom and Maps issue - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello-
So, I've been on the nightly for a while now. I've noticed that the Maps application launches every time I perform a boot of my Xoom. I've been on the Team EOS Nightly 89 for a couple of weeks. Is anyone else experiencing maps launching on boot? I also look into my running apps and I see 2-3 map apps running. Not sure how that is possible. Not sure if this is ICS or the ROM.
Let me know if this is a known issue or if there is a fix.

It is normal for Maps to be running the NetworkLocationService at boot, and other services periodically.

Zanshin is right.
If maps is part of system/app you really don't have a choice.
It is possible to make it to a user app though and freeze it at startup using Autostarts from the market though without suffering ill effect.

Need some help guys (nexus s 4g)

Hello all I need some input on custom roms. I have tried about three different roms and so far they were all the same... Well same problem... I've used apex, codename android and now I'm on cm9 but with all those roms I lost my navigation. I don't care about losing all my Google apps but I really use my navigation a lot, is there any custom rom that let's me keep it.
I mean on the Site nexus hacks he seemed to have kept navigation on both apex and codename android but I lost them. I usually wipe everything install the rom then gapps then matrx1 if I feel like using it. My main thing was trying to find a working rom that would allow me to use Gamecih on ics 4.0.4,but now I also need my navigation.
Also I seem to drop 3g more with cm9.
My guess is that something you are installing is causing the issue with navigation. I would do a full wipe, install cm9 and gapps. Then install Google maps and try navigation. If it works with nothing else installed, then it's one of your other apps.
I lost it also when I use the apex from. Just go to the play store under "my apps" and download google maps again. Then you'll get navigation back. That's what I do.

Ok wow I'm dumb lol I thought google maps and navigation were two different apps, thanks guys that worked like a charm, Gamecih still don't let me do certain stuff but that's just cause ics.
Guess now all I need is to get my matrx1 back then I'm good.
Oh be for I finish up is there any reason as to why my 3g seems to be lower at most times? Or any way to boost it and wifi

[Q] Waze not working on [ROM][4.1.2][STABLE] CyanogenMod 10 ♦ Gierdo's Nightly Builds

[Q] Waze not working on [ROM][4.1.2][STABLE] CyanogenMod 10 ♦ Gierdo's Nightly Builds
I am using [ROM][4.1.2][STABLE] CyanogenMod 10 ♦ Gierdo's Nightly Builds rom, version dec. 2 .
Great rom, with a few drawbacks on my transformer: google search fc's, no big problem.
However, when I install WAZE social GPS app from the play store it does not work. It does not fc, it simply shows the WAZE startup screen and then nothing. Just throws me back to the start screen. When I look at apps in settings it seems to be running. But nothing happens when I shut it down. I have tried to delete app data, user data, reinstall, wipe dalvik/cache: nothing.
I really need waze and hope someone can help me get this to work on this rom.
Fixed it!
Well, that was a quick fix.
It seams that the team EOS gapps 10.6 (for Xoom I think) is not working completely as it should on my tf101.
After installing a different gapps package Waze runs as expected and the search function also works as designed without fc's.
Anyone else having problems with Waze on Transformer tf101: try different gapps.

[Q] Updated Google Search App Issues on Xoom

I am having problems with the latest Google Search App updates since Dec 5th (or so). The last version that I have working is 2.1.12.516912. I was hoping there would be another update to fix the issues but the update today, 2.2.10.546669, is the same. I have a Wingray Xoom running the last 4.1.2 EOS Nightly (155). When I open the Google Search App, as soon as it loads to the page where cards show, the app crashes to the home screen. It does not force close, it just disappears. The app is working fine on my Galaxy Nexus.
Am I alone? Any suggestions? Thanks...
Edit: I think I found the best answer for a workaround in the EOS 4 thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35329721&postcount=369
Its because officially hot word does not support non neon devices, before it just worked, but now with the latest few versions it does not work.
Doing as I posted is currently the only work-a-round

Google Maps is crashing the Xoom

Hi there
I'm running CM10 stable, but the xoom is crashing when I launch google maps, or it's related apps (navigation, local, etc)
Any idea how I can fix this?
Have you tried clearing the data and let it redownload?
Hey, sorry I missed this reply. I've since been using CM10.1 nightlies and the app also crashes. This includes after a fresh CM flash. how can i better report to a dev so the users cash be addressed?

Maps Extreme Lag

Hey
Running public release version of O on my Pixel with a clean install and no root.
Maps has been lagging insanely since day one and the device heats up more than normal when running maps.
Tried everything and I'm at my wits' end as far as this goes. Anyone experiencing the same? Any solution?
Thanks!
The only thing I've noticed with maps is that it often fails to load the map until you start zooming in or out. Seems a little buggy to me given it's one of the most widely used apps
I use maps every single day several times and I've had no issue. I'm on the final O. Have you updated Maps to the latest version? Are you signed up for the Maps beta in the Play Store and forgot?
I use maps everyday also, I use the beta since day one, no problems here, now you can change the voice from US to UK
