G2, google maps 5.5 i think it is, running CM7 RC3 and pershoots kernel,
google maps works fine, but when i go to naviage, it FC all the time....any ideas?
edit.
ioops i forgot the usual. i did a fix perms, rebooted same thing. i uninstalled the app, downloaded it, still a no go.
i just tried maps v 5.4.0 and still no go, wiped dalvk, cache, fix permissions, and then reinstalled gapps zip and atill not working
edit..reflashed cm rom and now it works, i must have deleted something i need regarding voice services that made it force close, which i usually delete these thigns from the rom because i dont use them
TTS is probable the problem
I have a rooted stock room with TWRP. Using GoLauncher. Have complete access to the Android market.
I've heard some people talk about Google Maps on their Fire, but it doesn't seem to be available. I know we have no GPS or cellular data, but that doesn't stop you from running Google Maps.
Anyone?
You can use Google Maps without GPS but normal location obviously doesn't work.
You can use GPSTether to get location information which works fine if you have the server on your Droid phone.
As for obtaining the app, you can get it from the GAPPS file off the CM site instead of installing it from the market. Just search for GAPPS and you will find the link.
There is a link to where to get the Apk somewhere in this thread:

Hello,
since recently my play store does not update my apps automatically anymore. Manually it works fine as I can see my apps require update but this should work on its own.
Using Dirty Unicorns ROM and iirc the update worked before but just recently it stopped somehow. I tried to clear cache and delete data for the play store app but did not change anything.
Maybe the update automatically setting in play store is turned off?
Nope, although in many cases it may be the most obvious solution but I checked already
What Gapps are you using ?
I can see that DU includes TRDS, a Slimkat rom feature.
We do have the same problem on Slimkat, it's due to the modified playstore included in the slim gapps (the one modified so it can change from white to black with the TRDS feature).
Download this : (it's safe, it comes from android police and i used it myself)
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23487008491963661
and install it.
You will get the latest playstore, unmodified, and things will be fixed (apps auto update).
The only downside is that your playstore won't be black anymore, even if TRDS is switched to on...
Hi
I have Axon 7, A2017 (Chinese) with Android 8.0.0 software (ZTE_A2017V3.0.0B11). On the previous version 7.1.1 the problem also occurred. On the Marshmallow version (the first software from the news) everything was fine.
The problem is that some applications such as Google Chrome, Google Maps, Google Dev, Google Canary, Maps Go (uses Google maps) and a few others; SOMETIMES they hang on startup (usually the splashscreen). In the case of Google Maps sometimes hangs immediately after the start (when showing the map). After a temporary suspension, I receive a dialog that the application is not responding - I can close it, wait or send feedback to Google.
This problem does not occur every time. I do not know what it depends on, but sometimes these applications start and work normally. Unfortunately, most often they do not work when I need them most ...
I would like to add that if any of these applications has such a problem, each of the others listed will behave the same - no response. However, if this problem does not occur (the application worked), the others will also start correctly and I will be able to use them until Android does not kill their process.
Does any of you have a similar problem?
------------------------------------------------
To get rid of this bothersome problem, I tried to restore the phone to the factory settings and after the reset do not change anything in the phone / application settings. Did not help.
Next, I tried to downgrade to the previous version of the system (7.1.1) using the official EDL packages provided by ZTE., from: zte.com.cn/china/sitecore/content/device/home/support/detail?id=B4C0ACE418834F588FED0C72D6046C78, package ZTE_A2017V1.0.0B15. On this version (7.1.1) there is the same problem, with the difference that the applications are jamming at startup, with white background (I see splashscreen on Oreo).
Since I remembered that everything worked well on Marshllow, I decided to do a downgrade version 6.0.0 (also from official sources, package: ZTE_A2017V1.0.0B15). Unfortunately, this version of the system from the official source does not work properly for me! Firstly, the phone does not search SIM cards at all. Secondly, WiFi can not be activated on the phone. Third - i can not enable USB debugging! (ie, debugging itself can be enabled, whereas after connecting the phone to a PC, there is no dialog window on the phone with the option of accepting a PC fingerprint). I had to use an SD card to update the system.
Does anyone of you also had a problem with this compile version after roolback?
Regards,
Xerphis

I only experienced that with the chinese oreo betas. Every google app wouldn't start, only a white screen.
Does not happen for me on stock 7.1.1, AOSP or with GSIs.
Unfortunately, until then I could not find a solution to this problem.
Therefore, I am asking you to make an EDL backup (without user data of course). Can any of you make such a copy of your software for A2017?

Sent you a PM with B15 EDL backup.
Read my PM and please make a backup before flashing it.

I also have an Axon 7 chinese (A2017) whit Nougat 7.1.1. (A2017V2.0.0B13)
I have the same problem as Xherpis, exactly the same.
I did the same as Xerphis, I restored the phone to the factory settings, but I still have the same problem.
Could you send me the B15 EDL Backup ?.
If it did not work, I would have to change my phone, because there are many applications that do not work.
Regards.
There is a fix posted on the Edl Oreo page
This link explains how to fix this issue.

Initially, uploading backup did not help me. At the beginning, the applications behaved the same.
It helped to install the Google Services Framework version 8.0.0.-4147944.
I will add that the installation of this framework on the previous system image did not help - but you can try this first..
Hi Xerphis,
What is the final solution then? i am also facing the same issue . i am on A2017 7.1.1 B13 . modem is pretty stable but not the apps which dependent on google. Chrome, maps, paytm etc..
Thanks and regards,

For me, installing every google apk fixed the issue. I was using B15, though.
You could try the yalp app?
The yalp app was good on a custom ROM I was testing.
This is an alternative to the google play store, however its usually the google play services that cause the crashes, etc
I'm running the B15 Oreo update, the apps are no problem on this, the earlier version before B13 was bad for apps force closing, crashing etc.
Had the same issue, found it to be the google play services, somthing on the last update really f%^&ed things up,
1. force stop
2. clear cache
3. clear all data
4. press 3 dots > uninstall updates
5. let it run... it will start acting strange for 1-2 min that will update the google services again and your good to go.
After installing the backup from @bornlivedie and installing Google Framework Services v8.0.0.-4147944, everything worked well.
Unfortunately, there is a network problem. Namely, I spend a lot of time in the place where the 4G network is starting (the network switches between 3G and 4G continuously), so it increased the battery usage. So in the settings I've always turned on by default 2G / 3G for both cards. Currently, changing these settings - even forcing the 2G network will not change the network mode, and all the time in the top bar I see 3G and 4G.
So I thought that I would return to the stock ROM to see if the problem would disappear. Unfortunately, even after returning to the stock ROM, the problem still exists. Anybody knows what's going on?
@kaplaey2 WOW it's work! It actually helped me. At least for now - I hope it is not a coincidence. I would like to add that the manual installation of the latest version of "Google services" did not help. It really helped uninstalling the update from the application settings. After this, we will receive push notifications to install updates from the play store.
My app was not working
