Hi all, as far as I remember I was able to use maps and street view on my NSTG a couple weeks ago, but when i tried to use street view today all I got was "no application found to manage google.streetview"; if I try to install street view from the market I don't get the app listed as it seems not to be compatible with Nook... any hint?
thanks
Mat

SOLVED - it was just that the last streetview version is not compatible with NST - version 1.7.2.0 works perfectly.

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

Mine didn't have it - but it's a free download. (just got it yesterday in fact)
Link : http://www.google.com/mobile/default/maps.html
QuickGPS is just a method whereby the phone downloads a stored bit of information about the location of certain GPS satellites so as to get your location (with reference to those satellite positions) a bit quicker (or so I understand, I could be wrong).
thank you very much very helpful info
doesnt this Require internet access when using the map?
Install Google Maps in your Storage Card. I did this and my cache (map) is also there. This is the solution for offline navigation.
By the way: I'm running Dutty's ROM 1.7, so I don't know for sure it will work for you.
Try it and see for yourself.
thank you

It does, yes. It needs it to download the map graphics - unless you're in an area you've already scouted via wifi (I guess), and the graphics are in cache. (not played with it enough to check that).
Hello everyone,
I made my application and loaded it onto the market 4 days ago but until today I couldn't see it, so I tried to change application name, upload an upgraded version and such but still I can't see it on the market while my other app is shown regularly. The only difference between the 2 of them is that the "ghost" application is a paid one while the shown one is free. To help myself explaining what I mean, I'll attach two screenshots. As you can see, it says there are 2 apps of mine but only 1 is shown... anyone can help me?
Already contacted Google Support and they say it's a filtering problem, but I tried and filters looks good...

Rooted my NST today( just got one ) and am on 1.1.2 firmware, everything seems to be working ok except I can't search the market. I can install apps from the market just fine, but when I search it just shows a blank list like it didn't find any matches ( although I know there are matches )
Also, opera mini and the stock browser both FC after opening before it renders the first web page.
Any fixes for these out there?
How long has it been since you rooted, in hours?

In another post the search issue was confirmed as being an issue with the Google Play from Google Market upgrades( even though we use the market.apk ) ... Using the SearchMarket app on the Play Store allows you to search as a work around.
Uninstalling Opera Mini and installing Opera Mobile fixed the browser crashing issue.
It's been about 16 hours since I rooted or so

Which post are you referring to? I've had my NST rooted since January and Market search was working without a problem back then. A couple of days ago I needed to search for an app and realised the function wasn't working anymore. However I had a couple of items in the Market's "search history" and selecting one of those gives correct results. Weird...

Sorry, it wasn't a post, got a private message from eded333 containing the following pertaining to search in market functionality...
Well, a similar issue happened on early stages of the way we installed google apps, probably market needs an update to work correctly as Googleplay or the new 1.1.2 update has broken search functionality again, when I have time, I'll look into it.
In the mean time, install from the market webpage on the pc Searchmarket (https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...JjaG1hcmtldCJd) select your NST when it asks you, which will maybe appear just as phone, connect the NST to your wifi, and open market, wait a minute or two, and the app will install.
This app will work as a substitute to the search functionality on the market while its broken.
