google earth

Hi
I have a hd2 , when I install the gps2google earth (gps2ge) on my mobile , I always get lat:0 and lng:0 . I donot see the google earth. any help pls?

Not sure what causes the problem; but do you still need GPS2GE nowadays? Google earth for HD2 uses GPS directly, and if you get the newest version, you can create 'starred places' and then share them.

Hi
I can not find a copy of google earth for htc hd2! any help?

Doesn't exist! That's why. Look for google maps instead.

HI
That is bad! hope htc can catch up.
Thanks for you info

Try running QuickGPS first and then Google Maps. You should only have to do this once

It seems you are mixing things up here. It would not be up to HTC to code Google Earth to work with a Windows Mobile Phone. If they did that, I can hear Google's cries of IPR violations. The way I see it, Google would be quite happy to see Google Earth working only on Android phones.

Yes, you are right, moreover, I'm pretty sure that when Stephen Selby wrote Google Earth, he actually meant Google Maps and kenobe would be perfectly happy to use Google Maps instead of waiting for Google Earth! I actually find the way google maps work brilliant! Using cell towers signal to get your approximate location when you can't get a GPS fix is a great feature.

Only non-google apps can connect to GPS

Actually i'm using sevenrock rom and previously quarks 20130113 and with both of then i cant access to gps with google apps(maps,navigator,my tracks,sky...) the gps stablize position but google program says "waiting to location". If i use another gps program like glympse, twonav, there is no problem and work perfectly.
I try googleing but it looks no more people is sufering this, only one person in xda without answer.
Any help?
Thanks

Hi jotakx,
From memory, the solution is very easy.
I had a similar problem in a different handset (now broken).
You would have to enable Location somewhere in Google Now.
This will allow you to use the GPS in Google Apps.
Note that by doing this, anonymous data may be sent to Google.
Thanks,

I try enabled all option from google, allowing access for everything, installing google search to get google now to enable location options but nothing solve the situation.
I found this
]h**p://dottech.org/94020/how-to-fix-please-enable-google-apps-location-error-in-google-maps-and-google-now-on-android/
thanks to your reply but in setting there is no option for me to "Let Google apps access your location " and my version is 4.1.2 JB Sevenrock mod based on Quarks. And the message “Please enable Google apps location access” never appers to me.
I will try it once again.
Thanks in advance

Works again!!!
After update gapps to 2012224 version without voice the option allowing googles apps gps usage appears and then everythong goes smoothly.

[Q] Google Now Cards Missing - Unable to Activate

Hi,
Recently upgraded to kitkat 4.4 and cannot activate Google Now. I go into Google Now and it just shows the search and nothing else
(No Cards). I also cannot activate it from the settings menu. I am currently located in China but it works fine for my Galaxy Nexus.
Any Ideas? I've tried factory reset and re-flashing the factory image. Also of course erasing the data and cache from Google Search.
Regards,
Bobbie

Same here
Same problem here! Please post if you find out how to fix ths. I'm also based in China now.

Check your "Google Settings" - is Google Now turned OFF ?
Go to Settings, Account & look under your Google Account - Syncs ON ?

Hi,
In my google settings there is no reference to Google now! o.o I'm sure it was there before updating...
Also, yes, all the sync is turned on under my Google account in the settings menu.
Is it possible that google now is simply not availiable in China? I updated my Nexus with a chinese sim card inside, this time.

Stock roms & kernels (or minimal modifications} ??
Access to Google's server from China (and the lack of) is one likely reason - even if the Apps are working & functioning, including location reporting since authorities do filter broadband traffic.
Can you access weather reports for Beijin, Guangzhou & Hong Kong via Google Now and/or via Google Search on the stock Chrome Browser? If it is working, those Now "cards" should be filled & showing up like ours here in the USA.
The stock KitKat 4.4 roms all have these apps, unless they are somehow remotely disabled and/or blocked - reasons for why we use Hangouts with ease while folks on the other half of the world are using WeChat instead ...

The solution requires a rooted phone.
Install Nova launcher and titanium backup.
Download the apk for Google Search 2.6.xx. You can find this easily.
Use titanium backup to uninstall Google search. This is why you have to install Nova. Otherwise you won't have a launcher.
Install Google search 2.6. You will be asked if you want to use Google now. Press yes.
Go to the Google play store and update to latest Google search. Now google now cards will be enabled. That's it. Kind of a pain but the only way to do it in China as far as I know. Hope this helps.
