For some reason while I'm using the N7, just browsing various websites or looking at videos, the error notification "unfortunately maps has stopped" pops up.
I searched around for a fix or even other threads about this on the N7 but have not seen any.
I've tried re-installing the Maps application on my N7 but it seems like it can't be uninstalled. I disabled the app and the error message stopped, but when I wanted to use the Map app, I had to enable it, and after use did not disable and noticed the error notification pop up at around the same frequency.. (every other day or so.)
I have not rooted the device, and have only downloaded/installed a handful of apps; am using Apex launcher as an alternative for the lack of landscape view on the home screen. Thanks in advance for any help.
Same problem I'm having. Not rooted, completely stock.

I'm also having this problem with the Nexus 7 and CM10, but good to know it also happens in stock, saves me some trouble.

Have you tried this: Goto Settings > Apps > Maps > Force stop, clear cache, clear data. Then try rebooting your N7.

Have you tried fixing permissions in recovery or through ROM Manager?
I've tried both, and I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling maps, it still happens. Yesterday it interrupted me twice while I was playing a game. It's starting to get annoying.
Yes this is also an annoying issue for me.

If you don't *use* maps, and all the attendant programs (like local, navigation, etc) you can always go into your appdrawer, longhold the app and drag it up to App Info. (or go settings>apps>maps) and choose to "disable" the program.
(This *should* be possible stock, not rooted. I may be wrong, I didn't leave my N7 stock very long ;P)
I might have figured it out. Go to maps, settings, location settings, location reporting, select "do not update your location". So far no message this past day or so (crossing fingers).
[edit] Spoke too soon, just got one.
Call Google Apps support.
I had this issue happen to me for the Gmail app, and unfortunately, this was happening on two devices, occured after Factory Resetting two devices, and removing and re-adding the account.
Google might have changed/switched a setting, and it may have affected your ability to access any saved data you have on your account.
Same problem here, maps has stopped. Happend when my N7 was stock, andre now when it is rooted.
FWIW, this has never happened to me again since I installed AOKP some days ago.

what's aokp? i still have this problem on my n7 and it bothered me again today to the point of googling for a solution, and what do you know, my own thread pops up.
AOKP is a custom ROM. Build 2 just came out a couple of days ago and build 3 is on the way. Cyanogenmod 10 may also have fixed this problem but I haven't tried any recent builds. Also, maps was updated very recently, are you on the last version?
Same Here
i have same problem with google maps on my xperia neo after i flashed my last rom.
after a fresh installation. it s runnning but when i restart i have that message "unfortunatly.. app stoped"
this stuff happened to me all the time on my N7, part of the reason i returned it.
note 2 l900 Unfortunately maps has stopped using favorites
No solutions recommended thus far have worked (fix permissions, clear cache, disable download reenable).
Every time I select a favorite or home or work in maps, it crashes andi get that error message. If I select from the history or manually enter, there's no issue.
Rooted stock Android 4.1.1. Version 6.10 maps.
But not the updated version. I hate the maps updated version. It worked fine until about a month ago (give or take).
Why are so many having this issue?
It may be the same prob fr evry1....or diff prob with similiar manifestation...post your logcats if you can....

Sorry for not responding with them ... I stopped following the thread when I found out the glory of Waze (and installed Whompasaurus)
i've read somewhere that could be a font size problem, go to settings and configure the smallest font size and try again, to me i didnt worked, but somehow the crash is delayed 1 or 2 seconds more
edit: i fixed it, my solution was to change the language
on android 4.4.2 (paranoid) you go to settings>>language & input>> english (United states)
don't know why i've set it to [ Developer] Accented English (zz_ZZ), that was the problem
another solutions i've read:
clean cache app
turn off phone, remove battery, wait 5 secs, turn on
flash gapps downloaded from your custom rom web
reset gps and agps, you can do this with "gps status" (search on play store)
try with another wifi, or mobile data plan (some people had problems with wep encrypted wifi's)

I was gonna buy a new tab cuz i use map regularly
I've been getting "Google Now is not available" on my device both on Color rom, and now the newly installed PA 3.99 RC2.
I'm running the latest Version 2.8.8.49369 version of Google search. However it does not display any Now features in the settings. It's just reverted back to the old style. I can make the Now widget, however it just reports the above quoted statement.
I am in mainland China, but I don't think this is the problem as it used to work before, and it works fine on my Nexus 10, which is also here with me in China.
I'm not digging up anything in the way of solutions, but if I missed something feel free to just link me up.
Does anyone know what causes this, and how to solve it?
Thanks

Google now app says not available, location trackign is disabled in China, and now way to do voice search by saying ok google..
I've had the same issue with PA and now with CM 11 M2. I can't access any Google Now features and I'm in the Caribbean.
Hi,
I hope this wasn't asked before, but I couldn't find anything.
I am currently using CM11 (latest build) with minimal gapps installed and face two problems:
A few months ago, when it was released in the play store, I decided to install the Google keyboard. This app somehow replaced the AOSP keyboard on my phone. I wasn't to impressed with it and decided to uninstall it, leaving me without any keyboard at all! This hasn't changed since, no matter how often I upgraded the CM11 and gapps build. It's no big deal for me, because I use another keyboard app, but I find this behavior rather strange.
I seem to have a similar problem with the camera app. When the Google camera app was released recently, I tried installing it - this time it didn't work, it told me that the app was already installed. After that I found out that I suddenly had no camera on my phone at all! How is this possible?
Can someone tell me where these apps have gone and how to recover them?
Thanks in advance.
This is pretty much my only real problem on my Nexus 4. My phone just doesn't like the Google Maps app. Every time I start it up, it crashes within three seconds. I noticed that this problem began appearing since I switched to ART when I was on Kitkat 4.4.4. On Dalvik the app runs fine. Somehow waters also look very distorted on my phone no matter what the runtime or Android version it's running. In the logcat it's printing stuff about some libraries (libGLESv2_adreno.so and libandroid_runtime.so).
Has anyone experienced this before and know a fix to this problem? Thanks in advance.

Same problem. Started with latest maps update. Still happening with a fresh install of a new rom.
Beat guess is low system memory as lollipop takes more space.
Hi all,
So I've had my Nexus 6p for about 3 months now (since joining Project FI) and I can't say I've been overly impressed with this phone. The battery life is nothing special, speed and performance is below average and the amount of times my whatsapp crashes is infuriating.
However suddenly today afternoon my Facebook app has just decided to no longer work. I'll open the app and two seconds later I'm back to the home screen.
I've tried the following:
- Clearing the cache and the data from the App settings.
- Clearing the cache from Recovery mode.
- Factory reset.
- After each of the previous steps, I've uninstalled and re-installed the Facebook app.
Any other recommendations to try out before I ask for a replacement phone?
Thanks in advance.
Just to update. The app only crashes when I'm trying to load my news feed. If I go on my profile or open a notification, that loads fine.
Wait for an update, until then, use an older version. If the update/older version isn't solving the problem, then use the browser Facebook. :/

Thanks for that. Dumb question but how can I install a specific older version?
I am also having the same problem on my Nexus 5x.
Issue Resolved
A new version of Facebook came out today and I now no longer have the issue. Seems like the patch prior to this caused an issue.
