Hi
I cant find any documentation on if google maps for android actually works with compass mode?
Do you mean that the 2D map view should rotate according to your position?
As far as I know the compass only works in StreetView mode (and then of course in Google Goggles app).
Although I might be entirely wrong
yes compass mode works but the map doesnt rotate. the blue triangle rotates.
oww... that sucks a bit doesnt it? Should be fairly easy to make the map rotate... but its better than nothing i guess. On my blackstone I have to move 10 meter in quick pace to get a gps-bearing... quite anoying when your on foot
Why when you zoom in the area you wanted zoomed in turns to be out of the visible map ?
Come on google !!! fix this !
Hi all,
I like to share my experience using Daydream VR on the unsupported Samsung A7 (2017). After following steps to root and add lines of code to the hardware XML file to enable Daydream to work, I find an odd behavior with Daydream app and any Google VR apps like street view. The double stereoscopic images open and are displayed momentarily but freezes. At first, I thought this was a total failure and the reason why the phone is incompatible or not supported for Daydream VR. However, by chance, I swiped down to reveal the the top status bar whilst in the stereoscopic landscape mode and the daydream controller and the VR view came to life and worked for as along as the status bar is revealed. I turned on the VR develop mode to check framerates and with overlays on in VR mode it didn't freeze. Frame rate was around 60 dipping sometimes to 50 on the start screen.
This is a small market for people trying VR and was wondering if anyone has experienced the same and also know of a fix or workaround to this problem. I don't believe the issue is a software type rather than hardware but I'm no expert! I've read a few topics regarding 'Immersive' mode but found nothing specific to this experience.
Thanks for reading and your input if you have any.
Update.
I've stumbled upon a work around. The Samsung phone comes with an app called Game Launcher. This places a small, movable red button overlaid onto the game when it switches to full screen. Pressing it opens a popup menu for in-game screen shots and to start video recording of the game in full screen. Anyway, I am digressing. Launching the Google Daydream app via the Samsung Game Launcher prevents the stereoscopic view from freezing. There's some jitter on black divider between the two views but other than that, the app runs and the controller works smoothly. Thought I'd share this info. Tested only with A7 (2017), rooted and stock rom 7.0.
I have a problem with some applications. They don't want to use full screen. For example Spotify. There is a black bar above navigation bar.
Is this problem related to spotify app or something related to operating system?
Do you have similar problem?
I think that maybe the 18:9 aspect ratio or the resolution perhaps isn't supported by all apps yet. I face the same problem with Ingress, but found a workaround to make the black bar smaller: By hiding the status bar for that specific app you have that issue with, here's a link: (No root needed)

I wrote a post on spotify community page, but no real answers so far. So, we have to be patient.
More apps have this problem..I asked developer of one of them and they said that in the future they plan to support 18:9 apps lol its 2018 already they should have it..
color os.5 has feature to scale any app to 19:9
so i hope someone can port the feature into aosp/androidOne
any solution?
Solution
If you're looking fullscreen + gestures (like in MIUI) you're looking for this app - Fluid Navigation Gestures (search google play store)
It works BETTER than original, allows for customization and forces all "2D" apps to render full screen. Not games though
You'll need adb as well to make that program work
I figured out that here would be the best place to ask.
I am struggling with the crappy fullscreen mode in landscape - the area around the camera is always either black or white. Did some tests - the most of the apps to not utilize the screen, where only the notification bar (being on the long side in landscape mode) does. Strangely enough, Google Maps and Google Translate DO utilize the whole screen in landscape mode, where as hangouts or gmail don't. This is with setting for full screen apps.
Did some reading and it seems like there are 2 ways - either the app forces the fullscreen or the OEMs. Did some tests with my own app at it looks like the only way for the app to appear fullscreen is to be allowed in the app. Is that so?
Does Gmail also have this blank area on other phones?
As you say, some apps use the full area, others don't, I believe the issue resides in the apps, not the device
