Older version of Google Maps without navigation? - Android Apps and Games

Does anybody know which version is the latest before navigation was implemented? I'm looking to sideload it onto my BB10 device but I need the apk to convert. If you have the apk, that would be even better. Thanks.

[Q] Bing Music: I can't see the icon?

Hello,
I've updated my device to mango beta.
Now I've version 7661.WP7_5_Trial?
How can it be that I don't have Bing Music?
Also, Instant resuming is not working?
Do I have an older version or something?
I have an Omnia 7.
The new Bing features may not be available in Belgium just yet.
As far as instant resuming, third party apps have to be updated to work with Mango in order for this to take place. Since, no one can publish Mango'd apps to the Marketplace yet, the only way to do this right now is develop an app of your own with the necessary update or download someone else's.

[Q] Google Maps 5.8 no longer in market for 2.1?

I just did a stock install for 2.1, and for the life of me I can't find google maps in the market. Then I went to the online webstore and it says google maps is not compatible with the XT720. Anyone know whats up? Thanks!
It's weird because I'm running on 2.1 stock rom right now and I have google maps (5.8).
You say you didn't find google maps on android market but did you change the filter in the settings ?

Thanks, I solved the problem. It wasn't the filter apparently google maps wasnt available for my country because of the 3D maps update which is really stupid. I used market enabler and got both google maps and the newest google plus.

Just installed it and loving it. Supposedly will only run on 4.2 or higher unless you wait for the official update on play store. I was waiting for this so figured I would share the knowledge.

Thanks! Seems great, can't wait to try it out
My HTC One on AT&T has not gotten the Maps update yet. I downloaded the APK from Androidpolice and it's working, but now I read there is a 7.0.1 update where they added the Offline maps selection when viewing the map (as opposed to having to type "Ok Maps" in the first release). However, I cannot find an updated APK for Android 4.1.2 devices... the two APK's I downloaded which were 7.0.1 could not be parsed because I'm not on 4.2. Anyone know where I can find the 7.0.1 APK for Android 4.1.2?
Also, for those of you with HTC One's, can you confirm whether addresses from the Phone application will open the new Google Maps app? On my device, if I click on an address from the Phone/Contacts app, it doesn't do anything now, whereas before it would open the address in Google Maps (on the older version).
Anyone else?

Same here. Actually, when I tap an address in contacts, it opens at&t navigator, which I am not using. I disabled it and now nothing happens at all when you tap the address. I was hoping that by disabling the at&t navigator it would default back to Google maps.
Also, if you just tap in the empty search bar, it will bring up the information cards. Just scroll down to the bottom and the option to store the map offline is already there in this version.

Yeah, somehow the contacts app just lost connection to the maps app with this version, so even if you don't have another app set as default, it just does nothing when you click an address. My initially was opening Glympse because I had that installed, but even after uninstalling it, it still isn't opening Maps. Definitely a bug between the HTC contacts app and the new Maps... which means it's probably not going to fixed for some time. I'm hoping that the upcoming HTC One update to 4.2 will fix it... but who knows when AT&T will be rolling that out. I'm not interested at this time in rooting my phone and installing a custom rom to try to fix this.
Thanks for the tip about the offline maps setting, I found it.
EDIT: There is still a way to get a contact address to appear in the new maps. Just start typing the name of the contact that has an associated address and it'll show up in the search results. Not as convenient, but at least it's a workaround for now!
I like it but driving along the navigation lags behind where I actually am

I received the 7.0.1 update through the Play store this afternoon (I'm on AT&T stock 4.1.2). When I click on addresses in Contacts it gives me the option to open the address with AT&T Navigator or Waze but not Maps. Not sure what the behavior was with earlier versions of Maps because I never tried it before now.

The correct behavior would be to ask you what app to use for links, including the Maps app. But since the link to Maps is broken, it is just asking you amongst your other compatible apps. If you don't have any other compatible apps, it will do nothing when you select an address.
Note that this just happens in the Phone/Contacts app though in Sense. If you use Chrome or another Google app that has an address or map link, it will still open in the new Maps. So it might be something HTC has to fix, or it might be something just broken with the API in the new Maps app. Only time will tell, but as I mentioned, you can start typing a contact name in the new Maps app, and it will show the address, so that's a workaround for now.
I had to uninstall and reinstall old version. If I zoom out past a certain point, the map doesn't render.. I'm on ARHD 12 if that matters.

It's hard to say whether it's your custom rom or not, but the maps renders fine at all zoom levels on my HTC One running 4.1.2 stock.

Google Messenger app

Google recently updated their Messenger app and some changes I don't like. I downloaded the previous version's apk file and tried to install it. I get an error Application not Installed. I am sure that because it is a Google app there is something blocking the installation. Also probably because the install in not coming from Google Play Store.
Has anyone figured out a way to bypass this issue? To load Google apps not from the Play Store server? I deleted the Play Store version before trying to install the apk file, but that did not work.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
Never mind. Found out that the apk version I was using was not compatible with my device. Found another version and it loaded fine.
Talk about a brain f--t! LOL
