Is there anyway to use Navigation/GPS with the offline google maps?
Since google has released maps to be downloaded for offline use, its been really useful. But I find that I couldn't use the navigation function, I could only look at the map. Is there anyway I can use just GPS to do the navigation with the downloaded maps and not need to use 3G or wifi?

No you can't use Navigation/Directions/routing functions of any sort while offline. Google Maps relies on it's servers to provide it with routing data. Use HTC Locations or Navfree if you want offline navigation. Can't comment on whether this will be possible sometime in the future with Google Maps. Maybe they'll do something like they did with the offline voice recognition engine in Jelly Bean.

Why don't you use the free Google turn-by-turn navigation.

Because I'm from Romania and google doesn't have detailed maps and i whant the navigasion to be on a big screen.
Have you found any full screen working navigation app?
For example IGO works fine but only in half of the screen
Google maps?

In greece works only when connected to the internet (we dont have gps free support...so you have to pay for a data plan in order to connect at the internet and use gmaps). So we mostly use cracked navigators like IGO,Sygic,Co-Pilot,Navigon etc...
Has anybody got a Sat Nav App with offline maps that def works. Have seen Co Pilot ICS ready but have seen posts where it is crashing for some.
Some others have offline maps but need to connect to get postcode searches ect (FreeNav) which I do not want.
Anybody out there using a workable Sat Nav for the SGN
Copilot works fine, sometimes it closes itself straight after opening but opening it again is fine, never had it crash while using it.

Hi, I'm using Navigon 4.01! This is working offline!
So far working properly on GNEX. Only problem is, when you force 2D Hardware acclaration, then it is not working anymore.
Copilot updated today works perfectly

Try the latest version of Sygic . It is quite nice and there is a 7 day trial version available on market :https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sygic.aura&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zeWdpYy5hdXJhIl0.
Cheers~
Search for Google Maps Brut, believe it's here on XDA, IIRC ....

Hello All !
i'm looking for an application that uses google maps in tracking .
I've Tried a bunch of apps , but some don't do tracking and some that do tracking won't use google maps and other that track and use google maps , won't do it offline !
any hint appreciated
any one ?!
try Sygic
Thank you for you reply , but Sygic has its own Map and is not using maps of google I think.
It uses TomTom's maps. They're the best in my country
I think that there aren't any gps navigator with google maps...
Did you find any ? I am also looking for the same...

what's the point of having GPS in the tablet, Wifi Version, when it only works with wifi? Yea, I can download offline maps but still.

I think it is still very useful features. Even the gps sensor is much better in my note 2014 (wifi) compare to my note 3.
Just use good apps like sygic, or download the offline map in google maps.
