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

Offline maps
Hi Everyone,
I heard that Google Maps 5 supports offline maps.
How to download the complete map or a the map of a country/city?
Thanks,

I love this magazine and I'm paid subscriber, and I last night I upgraded my custom ROM to ICS 4.0.3 and I'm getting 'this app is not compatible with this device' error.
I have a SG2 running a custom rom.
Any pointers?
Thanks guys!
Where are you getting the error message? From market download?
Usually, most of the apps are running well on ICS. So, if you have an app already downloaded or backed up, try to install the app using backup.
If you don't have any backup, only the way would be going back to previous rom and download the app, backup and coming back to ICS. Try install the app from backup.
My one more question is, did you change the lcd density?

Thanks for your reply.
I tried installing this app by clicking directly on their website, which in turn sent me to the android market and at the top it says 'this app is not compatible with your device'
Unfortunlally I didn't back up any apps.
And no, I didn't change the lcs density, to be honest I dont even know how to do it, lol.
should I actually be doing that?
Is this a mobile echnomist lite?
I was able to download from my ICS FC15 Rom.
[update] never mind. I found the app also from their website and linked to google market.
It seems like only the way would be going back to GB (if you were able to download from there), and save the app. Then comes back to FC15 again to manually install the app.
Ohhh that's a pain in the a.......
maybe I could download the apk from a a website and try it that way?
I DO not recommend but if you can, that would be easiest way until ICS is formally supported.
For me, it worked like a charm in that way.
Now I'm removing the app from my phone.
I have the file, I think it will work for anyone that did not the backup
here it is
edit, I have to have more than 10 post to share a link, I post it on the economist forum ...
Come on Economist!
You would think for $100 a year they could provide a recent app. Think they got their heads shoved up their ipads.
I used airdroid to download the apk from my phone and then upload it back to the new tablet, worked like a charm. However, the app IS laggy with jellybean, definitely something needs fixing, scrolling is very jerky.

Bump. I'm also looking for thel latest version posted above. Still not quite compatible with JB but supposedly works MUCH better and has fixed the scrolling issues, etc.
Thanks in advance.

Settings/App(Google Play)/Clear Data/clear Cache/Clear Defaults then when you go to Play Store and sign in again it should work. This is how I always clear the not compatible error.
Hi there , New to this site and i must say this is just one big book of knowledge about phones haha!
Anyways.. I installed last night the XDark ICS (Android 4.0.3) and realized that when i slide i my gamepad up that the launcher never came up so i went to the play store and found the installer so i downloaded it and every time it gets half way to being installed a error box pops up and says.. "Incompatible with other applications using the same shared user id" SO I THOUGHT OKAY AND THAT MEANS WHAT EXACTLY!?! so i searched around this forum and found people giving download link for apk files so i downloaded it put the apk on my sd card and tried installing that but this just gives me another error and says application not installed.
I do realise that this rom may not support the game launcher but there is no mention of it is the post and thought that someone out there could shed a little light on this matter.
I am not that botherd if i cannot get this running but i find it useful when i was running the normal stock software.
The link to this rom is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1729250
If anyone could help it would be most apprrciated! :good:

I think the game launcher doesn't work on ics.
Sorry for my bad English. It's not my native language.
Ohh okay I never knew. A bit dissapointing but thanks. And no your English is perfect and very understandable
There is actually the Game Launcher from the leaked ICS builds that looks nice. I have it on my 2.3.3 Xplay and it works great. just look up ICS Xperia Game Launcher and you will find it.
Thankyou I will search this and let you know the results.

It looks nowhere like the old market, idk what are you talking about.
This version seems slower than the previous one.

old market
New Play v4
old Play
So i think the new Play looks more like the old market than the old play.
I haven't used the new play so much, but the old one wasn't that fast, too. everytime i downloaded some updates lets say 4 the complete Desire stucks.
Install failed
I been trying to install the new google play for over an hour and every time it fails any ideas i removed the old version.

Copy the apk in /system/app, set its permissions to match the other apps in that folder, then reboot.
Play Store 4.0.26
md5: 0991490d2d600504ccd771dff60cc886
use an app like systemcleanup to move play store back to system/app, or do it manually with root filer explorer as above.
tested and seems to work fine (still nothing under categories here in UK as expected, yet to fully roll out, but otherwise everything works fine). clear app data and cache if it throws up errors.

as above, use an app like systemcleanup to move play store back to system/app, or do it manually with root file explorer and change permissions

the changes aren't that major, mainly cosmetic as far as i can tell and from initial 'reviews'
very easy to install the apk just to have a look though. if you're still having it crashing, try clearing data and cache of play store in manage apps.
Hi,
since a few days now every time I want to run Play Store i gets " Unfortunately, Google Play Store Has Stopped" :/
I've tried clearing cache and data - no luck, force stop - no luck; downgrade - it worked and I had stock version of Play Store (uhm, odd feeling seeing that version ) but after a short while (i guess it auto-updated itsefl?) the issue returned and I'm again unable to access Play Store :/
Any idea what's happening? Possible (different solutions)?
If your running a theme, try returning to stock theme.
Otherwise you may need to flash an older play store.APK zip in recovery

that was it - yay! it works again! thanks a million!
tho - bollocks as the system theme is a bit so-so - prefere Thyrus Black... would update to it fix the issue with play store?
