I think I found a bug in the latest version CM7 with combination the latest version of Google maps.
When I go on google maps, the sensors of the device (accelerometer) freeze until i restart the device.
Other GPS aplications work fine (e.g NDRIVE).
Anyone confirm?
Correction:
Only happens in google latitude
Same situation for me!

Co-Pilot was crashing on me all the time.
Hello,
I've rooted my Wildfire and as I'm not in US, I've uninstalled the original Maps app and replaced it with the hacked version of Maps 5.7 that has unlocked navigation (also so that I don't have 2 Maps apps on my phone). However, now all apps (including maps) cannot find the location using the network location mechanism, only if I turn on GPS, then the location can be found (I also need to be outside for the GPS to work, but that is normal). Using the location via the mobile network doesn't work at all. Is there a fix for this, or do I somehow need to reinstall the original maps? I use the stock HTC froyo ROM.
Thanks a lot.
Cheers...
I also use the hacked maps, but network based locations works well. Anyway i downgraded to a lower maps version because the fonts in newer versions are not very clear on my wildfire.

Im using Aurora (Ive tried on 3.1u5 and 2.04) and the compass mode in google maps seems to not work.
The compass itself works though. I got smart compass from the market and it points in the right direction. Anyone has ever had working compass mode with Aurora? Is this a problem with the ROM or Maps itself?
This is ICS AOSP problem. Compass mode works in older verzion of maps, not sure which. Maybe 5.x.

For those that haven't noticed, the latest version of Google Maps (6.10.0) now has a fully working compass mode. It also fixes the "spinning compass" issue seen on CM9/CM10 ROMs.
Yay!

Try downloading the app "GPS Test" from the play store, and after you open RunKeeper, open GPS Test, wait for a lock. I don't use RunKeeper, but whenever my phone can't get a lock for no obvious reason, opening the GPS Test does the trick. Has saved me countless times.
