Hi, iam also from Indonesia, you can download google maps 5.0 from forums..
But you cannot experience 3d view in maps of Indonesia in this new update. The only new thing available is the rotating compass view. Anyways have fun..
Cheers...
3D maps are only available in 200 cities for now

no need to throw tantrum guys. its indonesia. what do you expect.. most of 3rd world country also don't have turn by turn google map road navigation. the only solution is get out from there, work and live at places like Singapore, or US.
i thinks we cannot buy apps from market as well at indonesia right?
can you give me the link?

ada link nya ga? mau donwload niii,,, haha
There are simpler way, just root your phone using z4root, download market enabler and set to T-Mobile [us], then you can download latest google map, new market, and it's update without having to search the .apk everytime.

You will hear the voice only when you are in the navigation mode and a direction is needed,like left or right.other times it will be quite

Never going to happen, sky's inbuilt protection is ridiculously good now. We cannot even edit the app anymore as it does a server side check for a particular signature.

So were gonna have to wait another year for Sky to make it work with JB, they're so slow its ridiculous.

Look at the Xbox 360 Sky Go player still hasnt had an update to change it with a metro style. I am not holding my breath.
I dont think sky are slow its just sky prefer iphone over android.
No the problem is sky don't trust android users so they spend too long on trying to build protection into the apps.

SkyGo on Note
I have the original Note running ICS which I run SkyGo on using a side loaded APK.
I guess the issue is the O/S rather than device as GT-N7000 isn't a supported device either.
I work for Sky and I'm currently beta testing the app and it does work on both the note 2 and on jb. See my post on the themes and apps section. The current version of Sky Go in Google Play does work on the original running ICS

lets not get peoples hopes up regarding root though. Sky will always block this for no legtimate reason (although they quote that it is because their content providers are worried about copyright infringement, which is nonsense as jailbroken iphones still use the same app).

So when will it be ready.
I paid a lot of money for the note 2... And pay a lot of money to sky from the subscription.

I'll try to address all concerns here. I don't think Sky will ever allow the app to work on rooted devices. Not sure why though, beat in mind I work in sales, I'm only testing the app. As to when it's available, I'm not sure. It's in phase 2 of beta testing right now. Also bear in mind, Sky Go is a free app. You pay for what you get on the tv, the app is an added bonus. I will ask though about the rooting issue and as soon as I get an answer I'll post on here
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
I dont see the issue with rooting tbh....seen as though sky go is all server based (you cant hack it to get a free account etc) I dont see why they blocked rooted devices from opening the app in the first place :duh:

Offline satnav/gps for us east coast?

Im going to America in july for about a month and will need a sat nav app to use offline as i will be in airplane mode with gps on.
Preferably free or cheap
Leave me your recommendations.
I can't comment on east coast coverage... But I've used copilot for a couple years. It's relatively cheap and works well enough. A lot of people like sygic too.

Download the area in Google maps app(menu -> make available offline) and you won't need data connection later. There won't be any live traffic info but at least navigation will work.

You can't download a big area so it is kind of useless

Check CoPilot on Market
There's free version
But the one with full voice navigation, only $10
Will need to download maps, could pick either whole usa or some states
Uses tomtom maps

I have downloaded navfree but my provider accidently cut my phone line so i have had no way to download the full maps, i will give sygic and go and copilot a download once im back online.

Can use them for Navigation?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using xda app-developers app
yes, you can navigate, but area you can save is limited to somehow size of a larger city. I'm looking as well to something like Nokia have, where you can download whole countries and be done with. If you travel outside your country chances are you won't have good data plan and your Google's maps are useless when needed most. Even in your own country how can you anticipate which location has poor service and you need to download data ahead, especially with limited size. it offers.
Don't know in which continent you are living, but you can try MapFactor from the playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mapfactor.navigator or Navfree (https://play.google.com/store/search?q=navfree navigator)
Hello, try Maps with me pro or Osmand +, it works perfecty for me
Re
Hi you can try google maps offline mode which is in beta now.
