Maps doesn't work

Every time I open it, I see my location, then a white screen and then it closes. I force stopped, uninstalled and reinstalled and it still happens. Anyone else having this issue..
I just noticed that it only happens in landscape mode.

Try Clearing data and cache.

I've also had those same problems. They dont happen all the time but nonetheless when they do happen it annoys the heck out of me. I've just learned to live with it. Hopefully JellyBean corrects the problem.

Same happens to me. Google maps just crashes constantly and is generally unusable. I'll try to clear data and cache and see if that solves anything.

Mine works great, I cached a 4 hour road trip and used it for navigation yesterday.

clearing the cache is not available. I opened Maps in portrait mode and it works fine. After opening that way, i tried landscape again, and it now seems to work.
i was trying to do this cool feature i found. Go to maps, find a location, tap it, and the go to street view. after in street view, click the menu and choose Compass Mode. You will be able to tour the location by moving the tablet around. And its nice and clear as well

I just cleared all the data and cache and it seems to be working just fine now...

Why does Google Maps act so busted on the Infinity at times?

I'm noticing that I have to restart my tablet often when I want to use Google Maps otherwise the app will force close on me back to the home screen when I launch it.
I know I can't be the only one experiencing this issue.

You would probably get more responses in the Infinity forum, which can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1661
Personally, I haven't had any issues with Maps force closing (or any apps FCing, really). Is Maps updated to the latest version? If so, try wiping the apps data and cache under Settings > Apps > Maps and see if that helps.

whoops, didn't realize I posted this in the Prime board.
Mods, do you magic and please move this thread.

yep, i experienced this as well. especially in landscape mode.

Here is how I have solved it on mine for the time being.
1. Clear cache, data and uninstall updates from apps
2. Shut down infinity and restart holding down volume down and power to instigate a cold boot (clears cache)
3. You can try maps if you want but I then installed the upgrades from the market and it has worked fine since.

My Google maps is also very much broken and crashes all the time... Very annoying.

From what I've read, the Maps issue is mostly due to the well-known "OpenGL Out Of Memory" issue, which exists on all of Asus' ICS releases (even on the TF101). This "bug" causes all sorts of instability in a lot of apps including Maps and Gmail. Any time you start having issues, just open a terminal window and type this to see if that is your problem:
logcat -d|grep -i opengl
Usually, you'll see the OpenGL out of memory errors...
Unfortunately, other that waiting for the Jelly Bean update (which, from my understanding, *does* fix this issue), there really isn't much you can do other than rebooting the device - that will get rid of the problem for a few days until it comes back.... It's a really bad bug that Asus never addressed in ICS, for whatever reason...

JB Update Now - How's It Going?

I''m just now installing JB. It didn't seem to run as smoothly as I expected so I''ve done a complete factory reset. I'm having a little trouble getting the weather widget to run . It keeps saying there' s no connectivity yet I know my WiFi is up and running . I''m also downloading all my apps, so everything is kind of slow right now. I thing I''ll be using Apex Launcher since the default launcher still doesn't have many features. It also doesn't us all the possible screen real estate.
Looks like I finally got the weather widget set correctly. It took a factory reset but I think a factory reset is the way to go for this new softwear update. I''ll update after all my apps finish downloading.

I didn't factory reset and mine already runs amazing. Not sure if I necessarily see need for it.

Got my factory reset all done and downloaded all my Google Play apps. I'm getting a constant notification that I have a Google Chrome update but everytime it trys to download, I get an error. It says something about "cannot download due to server error.
Everything else seemed to download pretty quickly. I am using Wizz widgets and have noticed that I cannot log in to the Facebook or Twitter wideget unless I have both applications on my tablet and have already logged into them! Not sure that's the way it always worked.
I did install Apex Launcher and it's running pretty smoothly. The only problem is that I cannot get the weather widget to showup after a reboot! I'll need to work on that. I have also noted that some of the app lists don't seem to scroll as smoothly as before or as I would expect. I did have one Apex Launcher crash so far but it recovered pretty quickly.
My TF700's been running JB for only a little while. I"ve shut it down and restarted a couple of times just to see if it gets better. Time will tell. Now to try out Netflix and Hulu+ to see if they work OK.

All is well with my update, I suppose. Had to disable Browser2ram. Kept getting permissions notifications, over and over.
Biggest issue fro me so far: I no longer have a power control widget. What's up with that?

We'll so far everything is working just great. I've looked at a Netflix movie, Hulu+ movie, and viewed a number of YouTube vids and all ran very smoothly. No stuttering or anything. I also noticed that Netflix scrolling is smooth the way it should be. I've ran both the default browser through a number of web sites and haven't experienced a single crash. The same with Boat browser. I finally got Chrome to complete it's update and I'll be giving it a try.
I still can't get the ASUS weather widget to stay on screen visible. Once I put it on my screen and then go to something else, I come back to an empty space. If I try to put something else there, it shows me the outline of the ASUS weather widget but there's nothing visible. Very strange. I've switched to HD widgets for now.
One thing I did notice with Jelly Bean, you can now place widgets from alternate launchers (Apex and Nova) from the widget drawer. You don't have to place them by holding down on a screen.
Everything seems to be smoothing out. I hope this keeps going as well as it has so far.

My wifi isn't as fast anymore, my phone with cm10 on it gets triple the download speeds using speedtest app side by side. My tablet a little bit of lag that it never had before. I did factory reset also.

So far so good. Loving jb on the 700. Everything seems to be working fine on mine hopefully everyone else is going good also.
To the person above with weather widget I had to fix my settings and that fixed it for me.

Didn't have to do a thing. Exemplary execution of the bean. Everything is smoothly operative.
If I run into anything while more deeply into an app I'll report back.
Thank you Asus.

Running great so far. Haven't tested much outside of the browser and come apps. Overall seems way better and smoother. About to stream it up to the tv so hope all goes well there...

So far so good. Only 1 reboot. Restored to factory. Reinstalled all software. A bit disappointed as I was hoping for better I/O performance and quadrant score. Device still sluggish when reading and writing to sd card.

Anyone tried Google Now?
Tried to trigger it after the update. I tried the unlock ring method as well as the press "Back", "Home", or "Recent" buttons with an upward swipe. I get the little google target. It starts for a split second, then I see the small popup at the bottom saying "network error. Check your connection...". The google search screen comes on and that's it.
Not rooted and I haven't done a factory reset yet as everything else seems to be working well and thought I would post here first to see if anyone else is having the issue.
Thanks, Jim

Games seems to be working well. I've never been able to play Nova 3 before it would always freeze and flicker. No longer. Runs well. Trying out MC3 now see if it gives me those known issues with getting disconnected in multiplayer mode.
Update: MC3 no longer disconnects during gameplay on multiplayer. JB has been a welcome change indeed.

Have you tried factory reset yet? If not I highly suggest this. This solves a lot of issues people are having.

gn works great for me. first time i got that error as well. just go in to your app drawer and set up google now (google icon).

I'm happier with my tablet now, the update makes me feel better about ditching my Note 10.1 for the Infinity.
Some forum apps are loading kind of slow though.

Jelly Bean is a little sticky.....
Downloaded JB this morning and really happy to see Google Now, but didn't really see much of a speed improvement. Maybe cause it was fast already with ICS. Two things are a little confusing. I thought that JB was making the stock browser CHROME, well I still have the ICS stock browser and flash works fine. The other thing is that the tablet sometimes freezes at seemingly simply tasks and completely re-boots.
Do you think a factory reset would help?? Or is there a setting I need to tweak??

I have yet to have problems to that extent. I would highly recommend a factory reset.

[Q] Asus weather widget stopped updating: Answer please

Right after I changed the refresh interval of the widget,it just stopped updating. Putting it back didn't help either. How can I fix this?

Got the same problem.
But i found a thread with some tablet widgets that are edited for other tablets. So i installed a edited asus wheater widget.
I lost the trhead but i'm sure you can find it.
Sorry for my bad English Sent From My TF300

I tried installing one but it gave me an error saying that the signatures didn't match

You could try
Settings > Apps > All > ASUS Weather > Clear data
Although after this you will probably have to set your location again.

I have already done that to no avail. What I did find out though is that it updates if I'm connected to a wifi network OTHER THAN the one I have here at home -.- I'm quite sure the problem is not with my router since everything else works with it except this widget.

Cleaning the data to nothing lead.

same problem
I bought the tf300t 6 days ago. It was black iso blue, has JB iso ICS and weigth is 56 gram less then what Asus says.
Nice tablet. 2 problems. Mylibrary does not work and wheather widget does not update.
I replaced it with beautiful weather but that has the same problem.

do you guys have your sync setting "on" from notifications panel?

Same situation here. Cleared data to no avail. Manual refresh failed. The only fix was to manually input current location.

Google Keyboard has stopped (Docked)

Hey folks - used my dock for the first time in a long time, and it seems that since the latest Google Keyboard update, I get "Unfortunately, Google Keyboard has stopped" every 30 seconds or so in any app. I'm running the latest Cromi-X (5.1 I believe). Anyone else seeing this behaviour? I think it's related to the keyboard dock... switching keyboard defaults and clearing data doesn't seem to do anything...
Thanks in advance!

I *just* went thru the same problem.
Go to Settings -> Apps, find Google Keyboard, and clear BOTH cache and app data.
Do the same for Dictionary Provider. I then rebooted, not sure that's necessary.
Fixed it for me.
