i wrote google maps in the market but it didn't find anything ://

Hate to ask, but which country? Maybe the market is regional, but I don't think so.
Because I just checked again, and it's there (telling me there's an update)
This is really strange....................................

yes i know :/ i just double checked the spelling and still... no google maps on my market :/ i don't believe its regional. im from Slovenia

Are you using a custom rom? If, which one?
Some customs have problems displaying some apps on the market.
Klewe

three ideas:
1. browse with your device this site market://search?q=pname:com.google.android.apps.maps
2. sign in and try installing it remote here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.apps.maps&feature=search_result
3. if this doesnt help try market enabler and check a us. provider
ps.:if this also fails, try asking in the rom thread (something with proper.build could be change this)

Google Maps 5.0 APK for Galaxy S

Hey Guys,
I have Darkyy's ROM and it seems the market doesn't want me to download the new update of Google Maps, anyone can post the apk for us ?
Thanks.
EDIT : Well, in fact it downloaded it, here are the maps.apk and streetview.apk, dunno if there is more needed. The maps.apk alone may work tho.
Push it via adb to system\app
EDIT2 : Now fixed

You have to push it via ADB (I think something like root explorer would work too), you can't just install it like any other app.

Always happens when you try to download an attachment from xda from the browser on the SGS.
Mine updated fine from the Market, but i can't get 3D to work or rotation, do the 2 finger swipe and nothing shows. Anyone else getting this?
Mine didn't work for a while then suddenly did. Make sure you are in a compatible city.

And you need to zoom in quite a bit...
Hey guys , i'm on Darky's 5.5 and the update got installed just fine.
Make sure you are looking at one of the supported city's to view buildings in 3d , you aldo need to be close enough for 3D to trigger.
Other than that , great update , maps load waaay faster!
somethings wring with update
I'm having problems though. Galaxy S i9000 2.1 stock ROM not showing any update in the market. What could be wrong ? I just go to the market and it's not there. Also any mobile google sites with links or QR are not helping me.
I have Samsing preinstalled maps, do they update somehow different or also through the market ?
Eeerm yeah still not working over here, i searched for new york empire state building, zoomed in fully and tried the 2 finger gesture to enable 3D, nowt.
if anyone have a problem with installation procedure...
and don`t know what push through Abd means...
just rename the file that you downloaded to Maps.apk and just instal it
it will work
greets

[Q] Google Maps no longer downloadable through Market

Hello everyone! New member here.
Just installed Virtuous 2.0 on my DZ 2.3.3 (downgraded, rooted and upgraded) and I realize that I now do not have access to Google Maps. I've tried Market Enabler, and none of the settings allow me to download Google Maps again. From the PC, it says it's not compatible for my device, and from my phone Maps isn't even available through search.
Could anyone help me?
I'd try looking around for a flashable gapps file somewhere that will work with your rom. Also - unless you've been attacked there before, i'd recommend asking this same question in the thread for the rom you are using! Others (who don't look in this forum) may know exactly what is wrong.

I resorted to downloading the .APK from some shady site. I have not reached 10 posts yet and thus cannot post in the Development forums ): Thanks anyway! Thought Maps should have been available for any device on any ROM ):

It is if you just flash the appropriate GAPPS package.

You can just use market enabler to fake your location, you can use another country like France or USA..

Market enabler won't work cos its not recognizing SGS2 as compatible. Its not about the location.
But simply using google or make a simple search here on xda and your would find the apk. Some newer roms also come pre-installed with it.
PS. I accidentally thank you. Those buttons are too close to each other.

i m using market 3.1.3..
Try moving market download cache to sd. You can use s2e to do this.
Need more info really. 1st does market open,2nd make sure your date and time are correct,3rd have you set up your Google account,4th background syncing must be enabled and 5th if you have set custom mtd then this could cause problems. Moving the market to and from one place to another will have no bearing on it working or not in my experience.
" once its gone,its GONE."

in order to download from the market you need to attach a google account to your phone.
yeah can you elaborate on the error/message you get..

Google Navigation

Hi,
Is there a way to unlock google navigation outside the US?
thanks
There isn't an official way. Google for some reason doesn't let navigation work in many countries (including Greece that I live in).
With every update there is a modded apk around that enables worldwide navigation. Don't have it atm.The only drawback is that you have to find the apk with every new version in play store so that you have the latest changes.

First you need to root your Hox so you can delete the old maps from system /app. Then download the hack version her http://htcfanboys.com/download/rawdealer/?action=view&file=12523

I really don't think so . If you read the op in my thread
Quote : "After a lawyer representing google contacted me on G+ and then later call me and we had a little talk ,we came to the conclusion that I'm not going to spread anymore modified maps . I'm not going get on the wrong side off Google .. And I'm considering closing the thread"
So sorry but I don't wanna get fryed by Google.
