Hi all. I need to know a solution for google maps to make radar warnings work. Displaying them and make a sound when i am nearby them. thx
Hi
According to this gsm Galaxy S review google navigation is not available?
So you get google maps but navigation does not work ? IS the review correct?
out of the box it's only Google Maps but Google Maps needs to be updated in Market to get Google Navigation Beta
Ah so it will depend on the country you are in ? My G1 has google navigation here in the UK. Can someone in the UK with this phone confirm ?
Thanks
Hi, Im in the UK and navigation works perfectly.
UK here and navigation was added after a market update to Google Maps, like mentioned above. It wasn't on when I first got it.
Cool. Thanks for the update guys.

I'm having the same problem. GPS Status & Toolbox, GPS Status Test & Fix and GPS Test all get a fix, accurate to 10 metres. When I open Google Maps, it just constantly says waiting for location. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Google Maps, and now the GPS icon doesn't even come up in the status bar (it did show up before the uninstall/reinstall but it still wouldn't get a fix). Does anyone have any ideas?

i've uninstalled the updates, now gps starts when i open google maps ...
but i only get the location given by the network or wifi.
the gps icon in the notification bar blinks ... finds the location fast enough (the location is accurate if checked in other applications) ... but this location is not shown in google maps:
if in location settings/mode i check 'gps only' ... the gps locks the correct position, but it is not shown on the map ...
if i chose 'high accuracy' .... maps will show the position of given by the network (which is not accurate)
any ideas? thank you!
btw google earth too fails to start the gps and to find an accurate position - it will get the position given by the network ... so it's a google thing - i guess!
another funny thing:
in maps i get the location using the network (which is not accurate), but if i switch to navigation - i get the location by gps (more accurate)!
so it uses the gps just for navigation .... what is this?
I figured out my problem: Google Play Services and Privacy Guard. Google Play Services needs location access as well as Maps.
Click thanks if I helped you

So, today I tried to use multiwindow while I was driving to show navigation in one window and my music player in the other. Unfortunately I found that with both Google Maps and Here, GPS didn't work in multiwindow; I had to expand the maps window to full screen in order to get it working. I'm on stock Nougat rooted with magisk, if that means anything. Has anyone else encountered this? Is there a workaround?
Hey guys,
is there a know workaround to get google maps navigation on to the digital dash of Volkswagen cars?
The only things I was able to find, which weren't that much, are from 2019 saying that Waze does work but maps doesn't.
Did anything change or why is it that Waze works but maps doesn't?
Thanks in advance.
