HI,
My google navigation was working fine on previous Cyanogenmod, but after i installed the newer version of Cyanogenmod 4.2.8.1, all of a sudden i dont see navigate option on google maps anymore.
Anyone have clue whats going on or how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated.
I had the same issue. This solution worked fine for me.

That did it
Thank you for the information. Google nav is now working fine.
I just wanted a few people to check something out for me. If you have the latest Google maps update can you go into navigation without it force closing?
I ask because I think there is an issue with the gm update. I make a rom for the HTC view and one of my users reported that for the past two versions of my rom navigation would force close every time. So what I did was flash an older version of my rom and sure enough navigation worked. So I go into the market, update maps and then navigation starts force closing on me. I uninstall the update and it started working fine again. So I flash a newer version of my rom that has the new maps included and confirmed it was force closing, I pushed the older version of maps over and it started working. So I then picked up my tf and fired up navigation, it ran fine. I then updated it to the latest version of maps and guess what? Navigation started force closing on me. So I'm pretty sure there is an issue with the update that is affecting hc devices so I'm just trying to confirm it (it works fine on my phone after the update) so can anyone just check to see if you can reproduce it? Thanks

Same on my TF101. Navigation force closes with latest Maps. Uninstall map updates and Navigation works fine.
Jerdog discovered something. If you open navigation through the app drawer icon, it will force close. If you access navigation through the Google Maps app, it works fine.

Can confirm this behavior for Motorola Defy on CM7.1 Stable. I don't use navigation on my transformer due to having the wifi only model.
Did you come to any solution besides using Navigation via Maps only?
It's not Transformer related, the same bug exists since the last update on my Galaxy Tab 10.1. According to the stack submitted with the bug report, it seems to be a problem with a function related to fit the activity to the screen size. All android tablets are possibly suffering under this force close.
It's broken on my TF101 but fine on my Motorola Atrix, so that's consistent with your theory.
i'm having the same issue, any chance they are working on a fix?
Just uninstall the update if you need to have it working now. I also disabled auto-updates so it wouldn't break again. I'll check again later after Google maps has been updated on my Atrix.
There's an update today that fixed the FC problems
fixed
Yes, the update fixed it for me as well.
I had the same problem on my Nexus S with ICS 4.0.3. The Navigation was force closing even when going into it through Maps. Uninstalling the maps updates helped and now it works again. Thanks for the advices found here!
Do you know if there's any official news on this issue? Haven't seen any...

Well, doesn't work for me :/ I have uninstalled and installed updates at least twice and still the when entering navigation it force closes...
Hopefully the next update will work for me.
So after the last update of the Maps everything works fine...
Has anyone also Problems with the inbuilt Compass of the One? Lately I wanted to use Google Maps while walking and discovered the Compass is working within Google Maps. So i tried a few other Compass Apps, where some do work and others dont.
I did create a Issue on this, but it seems I'm the only one with this Issue so far: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-731
Im on stock CM11S, so it cant be any Mod / Custom Rom / Kernel Problems.

Compass issue related to encryption
Hi,
I have the exact same problem. At first, I thought it might be a hardware defect, but that isn't the case.
Is you phone encrypted?
As bizarre as it sounds, it seems like the compass stops working as soon as the phone is encrypted. I did a factory reset - compass started working again. Encrypted phone again - compass no longer working.
Daniel, if your phone is encrypted as well, please update the jira ticket - it will help the developers reproduce / fix the issue.
Bye,
Till
Same problem here, but not encrypted
My Phone is encrypted NOW, but I really dont know if it was back when I encoutered that the Compass does not work with Google Maps.
I will try to Factory Reset if Ive got the Time and see if this does something to Google Maps. I wanted to try CM11 (without S) anyway.
Prior to encryption, my compass was just way off. Generally around 25 degrees counter clockwise. Now that the phone is encrypted, the compass doesn't work at all.
Anyone know if these issues are present on the "Vanilla" CM11 snapshot and/or nightly roms direct download from the CM site?

According to the Jira Ticket, this also does not work on CM11 nightlys.
Compass was always broken even on Nexus 5. I was hoping it would be fixed in 1+1 and so many Google Maps updates and yet this is still an issue.
It doesnt even work on N5 when encryption is enabled? really?

Thats weird. but I dont see the connection to the OPO then, Compass is fine when Phone is not encrypted.
My compass works but it's just way off lol
//edit
Actually I just tried it now since maps got updates recently and now it's kinda right and isn't off by much
Phone isn't encrypted
Sent from my A0001 using XDA Free mobile app
cm11 night 20150105 ,not encrypted.
Compass only worked in notification drawer widget,all other apps didn't work.
My compass was 90 degrees off in Google Maps earlier today. It was 180 degrees off a couple weeks ago too. What causes this?
Same problems here. Anyone an idea?
Compass works on my end but the orientation is off 90 degrees in CM11 I believe. It really throws off walking directions but driving seems ok
try this. download GPS Status & Toolbox @ playstore. calibrate the compass, like here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rak2xhnk0qE
couldn't test it myself yet.
Currently running LOS14.1 build 20170707
Has anyone experienced GPS issues? In particular when using navigation apps like Google Maps or Waze? The GPS can find your location but besides that doesn't aid in navigation. GPS apps keep saying searching for GPS signal...
Does anyone have a fix for this?
Navigation was working fine for me in CM 13.1
GPS in los14 isn't as good as cm13. Nothing you can do about it.
My Snapchat app crashes I don't know why. I've hid it from magisk and not installed Xposed. Running on stock rom. Anyone facing this issue? Any fix?
I think almost everyone with a Anderiod device has this promblem, due to some kind of update, mine is not working either so my friend will have to hold my streaks. I hope snapchat fix this problem soon...
It's a mistake from Snapchat servers.
I reinstalled and that fixed it.
