theUnwired posted yesterday about a new Google Maps with street view, and it is listed on the Google Mobile Maps site, but I can't get the thing downloaded. When I try to download on the phone (in Opera) Java opens for some reason and then hangs. Anyone have the CAB? And you can't download from your computer, have to get it directly to the phone. Thank in advance...
*edit* just thought of trying with PocketIE, will post back if it works...
Ok, it works with PocketIE, downloaded the CAB and installing now! Silly Opera...just go to m.google.com/maps and download...
yep it works pretty well, still no UK coverage of street views,but I "took a walk" around paris last night ;P
There was a direct link to it on the dev&hacking forum I think.
confirmed works great! but im disappointed to see that the iphone wins over again in functionality - streetview on ppc is limited to left and right 360 degrees whereas the new iphone app has ful spherical view with up and down aswell oh well its better than nothing
How do i get the PPC Version? I only get the jave version there..that the java version has Streetview is nothing new...but the Java version comes without GPS support.
You have to go there in PocketIE and NOT in Opera...as I said in the second post...

Ok thanks...i havent read that far.
what are the benefits of this version of google maps compared to the pre-installed version already on the phone?
anybody have problems with their phone freezing up after installing the newest version of Google Maps with Street View?
I tried the new Google Maps today while driving home with the GPS turned on and the phone froze 3 times on me, requiring a soft reboot before the phone could be usable again. I ended up uninstalling the new version and resinstalling the version which came with the phone.

just before i d/l this, what are the benefits again?
Comes with Street View, and some more menu features.
You're not loosing anything, so it's worth it in my view.
Hey everyone,
I have a problem running google maps, it installs fine but everytime i want to run it an error pops up saying that it isn't signed or that a component might be missing. The strange thing is that it was working before when i got the device and installed it and after a hard reset it doesn't anymore. It kinds of bugs me because i use it quite often!
if anyone is able to help me please don't hesitate!
Thanks!

with your mobile, go to http://mobile.htc.com/uk/01_applications.html and download it from there. then it will work again. before doing this, uninstall the installed version.
Thanks, it worked!
Got my google Maps back up and running.
Cheers
Math

I just did the update and now the Maps search Touchflo 2D menu option does nothing. Maps itself is fine. Any ideas how to get the search option to launch Maps again?
Tried soft reset already?

Try installing Google maps to the internal storage, should work then.
However, does anyone know if there's a way to make location tab work even with google maps installed on the card?

Doh! Thanks for that, it works from main memory. It would be nice to have the option to run from card though.

Hi there. The unit I got in Malaysia doesn't come with google maps. The icon on the touchflo is missing. Where would I start if I want this application? Thanks.

True. Sophisticated Google maps capabilities do not work in some locations, Malaysia included. You may need to use M2DC to enable the "Location" tab in TF. See here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392

Hi Guys,
I got to know that Microsoft has launched new version of MarketPlace which allows
1. Install softwares on Storage Card.
2. Choose different locations.
Have a look this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hy7fweX5F-Q
In my HD2, Marketplace is installed on ROM. So how can i get this new version in my phone.
Please guide.
When you launch Marketplace it will check for the latest version and update itself for you.

Hi,
Its not updating my marketplace.
Go to settings, and applications. Remove marketplace, then launch it using the icon in the Windows menu. Should reinstall the new updated version.

Thanks Buddy.. Its working
No problem, I was getting a little confused too! Thanks for the heads up. Only problem i'm having is that I have nowhere near as many apps when selecting the US Marketplace as the guy in the video.

Same here. I have more apps in the UK store than the US store.
Only showing 76 apps in the US marketplace for me....this is some bull****!
You are right. Marketplace is not having enough apps and very few free apps.
My friend with iphone keep on teasing me, they have app for every damn thing.. Now its diverting my mind towards iphone....

If you can't find it on the market, you can always use google for off-market versions.
De4Ler,
Can I hijack this thread? or should I make a new one?
Is it possible to access market from a forbidden country?; Im currently in a vacation in Sudan (which market is not supported there) and VPN is not working either.

no no, this is not my problem. I was in Saudi Arabia (which has the free market supported) and I was able to get paid apps using market access.
But in Sudan, whenever I launch the Market it just loads the loading screen for a few seconds then closes without any error or a message. when I try to install apps using the website, it says "sorry, this application is not available from your country" for all apps. When I did a little research on that it turned out that Google has forbidden access to the market (or should I say most of its services; I get "error 403" whenever I try to access Google's features)

Check your maturity settings, press the menu and make sure all the boxes are checked maps should be there without using the enabler

I know, but it is a PITA finding all the apps I want on the interweb and I'm not always near my computer, furthermore I want to upgrade my current apps and install others I couldn't find on the internet.
I've tried using VPN on HyperDroid, it connects successfully however I seem to not be getting any connectivity. I will try to look further in it. Thank you all for your suggestions.
Hi
After i install the market enabled, that means i can download paid apps for free??
Hi, all
I've been searching these days for an offline GPS navigation software for Wave 3 and found only an outdated NDrive with very old maps.
Is there any decent one?
Thanks

C'mon man.....
Go to Menu -> Settings -> Location (or GPS, i dont know how its called in english) -> scroll down and you'll find "Be On Road". Enable it, then relaunch the application.
Simple as f***k
