I think its because the uploaded apk is for android 4.2. What rom are you using and what android version?
Apparently, you have to type or say " OK Maps" in the search bar to view offline maps.
OP- the download worked for me. Thank you.

I had to uninstall this update. Its missing my maps functions. I use my PC to route my 16-20 stops and save my map. Then I use my maps to navigate the city. With Google! It makes it almost unusable for me. Or did I miss something? I looked in all the menus and didn't find.

From the blog post:
"My Maps functionality is not supported in this release but will return to future versions of the app."
I'd post the link, but haven't had enough posts yet.

Yea I was disappointed at first when I found the same problem, but this seems to be the answer to this for the time-being. It doesn't allow as wide a view when caching, it seems I can just barely get all of NYC into one screen anymore without being told to zoom in.

Installed perfectly on my UK HTC One. Lovely, many thanks!
Thanks for this, mate! :good: Works good on both my nexus devices! But just so everyone knows this is still partly (Nav & certain other stuff) in beta Guess they are really dumping Latitude just like they did with Reader. Good move on their part though. Never really found it that useful anyways :victory:
Loving the update... Thanks a ton!
This APK doens't install on my Gnexus with SlimBean v7, can anyone help me?
Thanks!

I wonder if they did this intentionally, since the new map app directions look similar to new navi just not green at the top, also don't see any navi installed, so it could be built in to the maps app.
Anyone else have keyboard cut off issues in landscape mode?
Otherwise it's a good update.
I'm also finding the new saved "ok maps" feature actually loads up much quicker, even when zooming in/out, likely since the save file is of a much smaller area.

Navigation has always been built into the Maps app, they just removed a shortcut.

Well if built in meant there was a button that launched another app then yes it was there previously.
But then now we'd also have to say Google earth is built in to the new maps app since it is listed under the side slide menu, yet still launches a separate app, which needs to be installed.

UPDATE: this thread is not needed anymore. Everything is working fine now, read this.
I can't find Google Earth in the Market on my Defy.
If you can, please post here your build.prop, ROM, firmware, and all the info you can gather. If you don't know how to do this, you can ask here or PM me and I'll help.
I am asking this because I suspect there is a problem on the Google's side validating Defy's fingerprints, and with enough info from somebody that can find and download Google Earth from the Market, we could fix it

When i had the 2.34 blurless rom with the JIT update, i could'nt find that app;
but now with the chinese 2.2 froyo i've installed google earth in the defy through the market.
I think the problem came with the market update. When you go to settings-applications-market and you uninstall the update you will see google earth again and other apps that are missing after the market update like vplayer. The problem will be back after the market is updated again automatically.

Nope. I uninstalled several times the update, searched with the old Market, and Google Earth didn't come up.
@ellendel, can you post your build.prop? It's located in /system/build.prop and you will need root.
I was unable to find google earth with the stock Android 2.1 US ROM and the updated market. Installed the 2.34 Central European ROM (still android 2.1) and was able to find google earth in the updated market(downloading it now).

Maybe you can open it with Root Explorer and copy/paste it? Or upload it with the Dropbox app to your Public folder and post a link...
Have you tried installing from here:
http://www.google.com/mobile/earth/...-us-bk-earthandroid&utm_term=earth on android
That just redirects to the Market, which says that the requested element can't be found.
Anyway, just to be clear: this problem is not about Google Earth. It's about Google not recognizing Defy's full specifications. There are dozens of other apps that we can't download. I just chose Google Earth because it's supposed to be available everywhere.
If I wanted Google Earth I'd just download the APK somewhere else.

I wonder when and why it changed? I can't find it in the Market either, but I do have it installed already. I downloaded right after I bought the phone in Nov.
Try something. Go to Settings > Applications. Find Market and clean data and uninstall updates. Try searching Google Earth in the Market now.
Don't worry, minutes later the Market will be updated again to the current version.
Found this on another site, not sure if still works:
view the below link thru mobile browser.. it will automatically starts to download and install...
http://sites.google.com/site/droidlife10/home/google_earth.apk
Actually just tried it on my computer and it gave me: google_earth.apk
Well, thank you. But read my other post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10650634&postcount=11
It's not about Google Earth, it's about why some apps are not in the Market.
Sorry, got lost on the journey. When I first got the G1 there was nothing on the market but a hundred different fart apps. (Yes, exaggeration). But I really did stop relying on the market and honestly can't recall where I got Earth as it does not show up as a market download.
Can you find Rocket Bunnies or Jet Car Stunts? Those don't appear for me, either.

Earth, Rocket Bunnies, and Jet Car Stunts now shows in the Market. I think it need to be updated (the Market that is). I happened to catch Lookout "Scanning Market", and I thought "Hm why?". As I looked up the Market in Applications I noticed the version was higher than the day before (I read around there was a new version, so I checked mine), so I looked up the apps that I couldn't find before, and boom, there they are.
You're right!
Market just updated from version 2002207 to 2002211 and Google Earth, Rocket Bunnies and Jet Car Stunts are appearing!
If somebody doesn't get the update: go to Settings > Applications > Manage applications. Uninstall Market updates and clear its data. Then enter the Market, close it, and a minute later you should have the new version.
Wheee!
I just checked its up now under free apps.

Google Play Store 3.9.16 - Remove Entries From All Apps, Keep Track Of Position In Lists, Expandable Notifications, And More
Posted by Artem Russakovskii in Apps/Games, News
Google just started rolling out an updated Google Play Store version 3.9.16 that follows the previous version 3.8.17 from August. Good news, everyone - we've already got our hands on the APK for you to install manually thanks to our loyal tipsters.
What's New
The most notable and immediately apparent new feature is the long overdue ability to remove apps you've previously downloaded from the All Apps list. If you like to try a lot of apps, that list is likely very cluttered. With the new Google Play, you can trim it to your heart's content.
Update #1: You can multi-select by long-pressing any app in the list and then tapping more apps, then delete them all in one go (added 2 new screenshots demonstrating it).
Update #2: The new Play Store now keeps track of your location in lists, including My Apps and All Apps, so when you click into an app and back, it drops you into the same spot. I had variable luck with this, and it didn't seem to work in All Apps at first, but I just reproduced it on both the EVO LTE and the Nexus 7. Brilliant.
Update #3: The notification icon that shows up when you have app updates has changed, and notifications are now expandable. I've added more screenshots showing the differences.
Update #4: The notification icon after installing an app now shows the app icon instead of something generic.
The size of the Play Store APK actually went down, so Google must have trimmed some extra fat. We're still digging through everything - in the meantime, check out the screenshots and grab the new version from our mirrors.

have you done it as described ?
long press on first app, so it´s marked, then short press on further apps
works for me im on SGS II GT-I9100 on CM 10-20121011-NIGHTLY-i9100
Works for me too on SlimBean 2.6
About time they started doing something about that list, but ...
Google need to implement features to be able to sort lists, especially that All Apps list. In the past it used to be sorted by the date the app was last installed, but now it is on the date when the app was first ever installed on the account, which is annoying.
Sometimes when I do a full wipe, I like to do fresh isntalls of all my apps, and the All Apps used to be ready handy for that as all my recently installed apps (and most requently used) will be at the top and all the apps that I installed and removed and never used again would be at the bottom. Now its just a pain trying to scroll through that entire list. An option to sort it how I like would be priceless.
Multi dpi compatible?? I'm planning to use it on 208 dpi

What's so great about version 7? With version 6.*, all I have to do is tap the microphone icon and speak. With version 7, first I have to tap the search bar, THEN tap the microphone, speak the address I'm wanting...THEN tap it again to route the map.
Version 6...One tap and I'm off to the races.
Version 7...three taps to do the same.
Would you mind explaining your shortcut to eliminate the extra inputs?

Nothing's "great" about 7. But it's better than having to avoid the update in the market. No matter what you do, TiBu detach, etc, it WILL show back up as an update, and that's just annoying
As for the shortcut to Navigation, that's simple. I did it in Nova in seconds, but your launcher may vary.. Long-press, Create Shortcut, Activities, Map, look for the Navigation intent. Created the typical blue pointer icon etc.
BTW, 7.2 makes Navigation less pokes. I agree that 7.0/7.1 you had to tap about 5 times to navigate which seemed pretty silly.

Actually no, even though Nova is much nicer than the AOSP launcher. But you don't have to change, there are apps in the market to create shortcuts.
I don't use any of them since Nova does it itself, but this seemed to find some: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=create shortcut
Sounds like I should take the Nova for a drive. I've heard about it,just never had the need...'til now.

Google Search - Latest Update
v3.1.8
Changes:
It officially brings Search version 3 (3.1.8 to be exact) that shipped in KitKat to all devices running 4.1+. This includes an updated UI, new refresh animation, among other things.
Because Search houses the Google Experience Launcher (GEL) inside, this update also brings GEL to all devices running Android 4.1+. All you need to do after installing Search 3.1.8 is install the launcher app from here, and voila - GEL for all, not just KitKat devices. I have it running on 4.1, 4.3, and 4.4 on both phones and tablets, and it finally looks perfect.
As I mentioned above, 3.1.8 completely fixes the wonky GEL layout on tablets. As you may have seen yesterday, several things on the Nexus 7, for example, were out of whack - the keyboard was popping when you tapped Home, the icons were old, and the Search box was off-center. All fixed.
Remember: GEL does support transparency in the navigation and status bars, but you need KitKat for that to work. And Google disabled it system-wide on the Nexus 10.
New cards:
Website update card
News topic card
What to watch card
Traffic incidents using Waze on maps.
Recurring reminders.
Real-time scores for rugby teams
See when your packages are ready for in-store pickup.
You can now bring back dismissed cards by pressing Undo.

I figured it out. I went and installed English(US) from the "Offline speech recognition".That seemed to do the trick for me. lol
As a last question, anyone know how to access the HTC one widgets? I can't see them under the widgets section.
i get google search force close with GEL . Xperia S 4.1.2
Works for me on Android Revolution 31.5, but is there a way for this to replace the locksreen? It's awkward with this launcher but the Sense lockscreen.

Those are Sense widgets and they only work on the Sense launcher

Managed to get my cards back, changed my system language (not the just the google voice language) to US English
As soon as i did that i get all the cards back including the new ones
I just updated Google Search and skipped GEL....The new Google Search works flawlessly on ViperOne 2.7
Great all working. " Ok Google" works only in English US. Hope will be quickly available in French.

Ok I've installed both apks but in settings I don't have the hot word detection setting. Am I doing something wrong. I have the language pack installed but I still don't get it. I'm using revolution 31.5.
Just received the official update and works great.
I get a "placeholder text: google search not found" when i try to launch GEL, but I have everything needed installed
How do u create folder in GEL

Google Maps Gets A Huge Update To v8.0 With Better Offline Maps Management, Lane Guidance In Navigation, And More [APK Download]
What's New
Before we dig in, here's what's new in v8.0. Items in italics are not on Play Store list.
Turn-by-turn navigation now displays distance, arrival time, and quick access to alternate routes
Save and manage offline maps in a custom list for when you're traveling or have a slow connection
Transit results now display total walking time of your trip and the next scheduled bus or train
Sign in to see your “Places to review” list from recently saved or searched-for places
If you have the Uber app installed, open it right from Google Maps when comparing route options
Bug fixes
Lane guidance in navigation mode (US and parts of Canada/Japan)
Adjust and name offline maps before saving
Search filters (price rating, open, from circles)
The Navigation app gets a slight UI tweak this time that brings it more in line with Google's new aesthetic. Navigation also includes easier access to alternative routes and other relevant data about your trip. For some reason, Google didn't include lane assistance in the changelog.

I completely agree with this update. Especially with the xposed map zoom invert...
Don't like how Google changed it...
