IGO uses no internet/wifi but you need to download maps. PM me if you want a link.
Is there a way for the Kindle Fire with ICS ROM to access location services to update for example a weather widget? Was wanting to use Beautiful Widgets. The build I'm using has the Google Location Service and GPS Satellites, but the widget cannot find location. Thanks to all the devs for the hard work in providing the rest of us with such great builds for our devices. XDA rules.
Location service
Try to use GPS Tether from market.
Does anyone know the best way to provide google with realtime data from my Nexus S to help them update the realtime live traffic data?
Reason I ask is they say it is google maps which will provide them with details of my speed and location so they can work out the live traffic status but my problem is if I leave google maps open the phone goes to sleep and when you wake it the GPS has been turned to standby thus meaning it has lost my live location and stopping google from being able to use my location in the traffic.

Maps services always run in the background as needed. You do not need to run the Maps app to provide your location data. As long as you opted in location services it will provide Google your data in the background.

How when it needs the GPS to provide an accurate location so it can tell what road I am on, You can tell my GPS hasn't locked for sometime because it takes ages to find satellites so it can't be using GPS?

If GPS is not available, it uses the cell towers and triangulates your location along with other users. Not as accurate as GPS but Google aggregates the data from different users to provide more accurate traffic info.

Hi Guys/Girls,
My first post having got hold of my first Android tablet 7" MID A13 really impressed for the price I've not stopped messing with it, but I seem to have a problem. For some reason Google Maps and Google Earth seem to crash unless I use Location Spoofer to fake my location, my device does not have GPS but surly this shouldn't matter, any ideas?
Hi, if you don't have GPS, you won't be able to pinpoint your location.. unless you set it to a specific location.

Yer I understand that but Surely the program shouldn't crash on load is there anyway to permanently fake a gps position in a config file somewhere?
What options do you have checked in the location settings?
the past few days; my gps has been trying to lock my location while at work; is there an app you can recommend to help me figure out what app is trying to obtain my gps location? thanks!
EDIT - found it; please lock/delete
