Hi,
Just a small tips to get the last google maps on HTC HD2.
I'm using official HTC HD2 rom (1.66.406.1) but I think that should work on all versions.
Cleaning part :
Remove \Program File\GoogleMaps folder
remove \Application Data\GoogleMaps folder too
Install part :
get the "last" google maps there : google.com/gmm/GoogleMaps.CAB (or there google.com/mobile/maps/ )
Or get the v4.1 with voice support in MykeChester post (thanks to him) there : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6274597&postcount=37
then install it on main memory of course (otherwise some apps won't be able to find GMaps anymore like compass, footprints,etc)
and voila.
You have the last google maps on your HD2 and saved a little space by cleaning.

Thanks J6B, Maps 4 is a big improvement!
Tried to download it to my Tmobile UK 1.72 ROM phone and was told it wouldn`t work on my HD2. So downloaded the CAB to my PC bluetoothed it across and installed it anyway and it works perfectly. Don`t know what Google are on about.
Works like a charm. Thank you bro!
Works fine on my HTC HD2
when i tried to install it using opera it didn't like it very much so i used win exp and now it is downloading.
which is the latest version? 4.1?
Wow - just followed the instructions and installed it on latest (8th July) NRG Maxsense ROM and its much better than the original Google Maps App.
Don't understand this thread. I have 4.1 on my phone, but when I go to m.google.com/maps it offers me 4.0.0.
Are you saying there's a new version available if you clear your device?
google maps is n1
but I want google maps navigate 4 WM
thats nicer!
for some reason, on Opera, google detect the phone as M850, so it didn't work. but it work fine with IE.
I also have 4.1.0 installed on my ROM. Is this a downgrade?
Hi!
i've been doing this for a while now and Google Maps has been working well.
unfortunately i came across that this method of saving space also breaks the Digital Compass' "choose destination" function (to indicate the heading and distance of your destination)
has anyone found out how to preserve this?
Hi,
@Kev007 : I just tested it again on my phone and everything working fine (dot on the compass and distance left is displayed)
Could you give us more info on your setup : rom used, etc, ...
Tried clearing both folders and reinstalling. Still 4.0 gets installed. I'm on stock rom... pls help..

Hey all,
Like the subject says: does the Google play store automatically install the arm64 version of apps like Google chrome ? how can I check that? I didn't found anything about it when looking in the "about " section of the settings

Hello,
how to download the right version of an apk file from google Play Store with the apk downloader?
http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/
For example: I try to download the facebook app.
After it is on the SD card I try to open it, then the phone say "Parse error".
I guess it doesn´t get the compatible version with Android 2.3.7 .
The Phone is a LGP500 running CM7

Well if your downloading the latest Facebook apk it will not work on that old of a android system think you need Android 4.0+ which is why it isn't working. I would look up the latest Facebook version that works on android 2.3.7 and try to find an apk for that.

Yea I know but they are available through the Google Play App too.
So Google Play has to have them somewhere. But how to access this older versions.
