Can somebody will post the latest modded version of Google Maps 5.11 with navigation?
[G1 Android Development] arsenala:
Hello, I live outside of the US and don`t have a rooted phone. Thats why I downloaded the rename apk, and it works just great, except for the fact that when I use Voice Search and say like "Navigate to Starbucks" it opens the "old" navigation and ofcourse it says that i cannot use it because i`m outside of the US.

Do you know how this can be fixed?

Thanks guys
[G1 Android Development] say942:
Can you plz send me the procedure to use Navigation on my unrooted phone outside US? Kindly mail it as I wont be able to login to xda soon. say942@gmail.com. Thanks in advance
[G1 Android Development] websinister:
Latest Modded Google Maps can be found here.
[G1 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
Not anymore!

not anymore!

Admin Edit: These Maps apk files have been removed due to a copyright infringement complaint from Google. Please do not post any more Google Maps apk's

Somehow, google is finding this mod to be an infringement.

Go figure, of all other things, navigation is what bothering them:eek:

Shame
[G1 Android Development] onlineemails:
thanks
[G1 Android Development] JEANRIVERA:
since we can't share this apk anymore could somebody explain how can it be done by your own?? I would like to know how to modify this apk to enable navigation in Puerto Rico

could someone take original apk and modded one and compare what are the difference between them and do the same thing on a newer version of apk?
[G1 Android Development] Sharvil Birodkar:
Many Thanks

@Brut.all:cowboy:

Thanks a Lot friend for developing such a nice mod for G maps, i still remember my X10 min days :victory:, i used ur map-Mod for navigation, as it was not available in my country.

I was not having an account on XDA that time :D

So just visited this page to say thanks :good:
[G1 Android Development] suffeks:
OK been using MapsD 6.14.4 on my S8 since for almost 2 years now no problem, looks like Google killed it... noooooo can someone mod it to keep it going? Either they are checking for user agent or took down the API url. i hate the new maps they are laggy af and the navigation is worse fps

brut my polaki friend come back fix this i will send you some slutties haha

what's wrong...
[G1 Android Development] chrisboyle:
If anyone else is wishing Car Home worked with brut maps (v6, different package name), it's relatively easy to fix (if you have root).

# get CarHome.apk somehow...
adb pull /system/app/CarHome.apk .

# thanks JF :-)
unzip CarHome.apk classes.dex
baksmali classes.dex

# change package name
sed -i s/com.google.android.apps.maps\//brut.googlemaps\// out/com/android/cardock/CarDockActivity.smali

# build
smali -o classes.dex out
zip CarHome.apk classes.dex
jarsigner -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -storepass android CarHome.apk androiddebugkey
# (or sign with something else)

# install
adb remount
adb shell mv /system/app/CarHome.apk /system/app/CarHome.old
adb uninstall com.android.cardock
adb install CarHome.apk

N.B. I haven't tested this exact set of commands, but it should be about right. Also this is for rooted devices; changing the package name would be more involved (anyone know how to build those binary XML files?)
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
And how, do you think, I have changed package name in Google Maps? :-)

[G1 Android Development] chrisboyle:
Oh cool, thanks. :-)
[G1 Android Development] :
the customized naming /data/data/brut.googlemaps causes all car locator apps could not be installed due to "missing shared library: com.android.google.maps"...

[G1 Android Development] scottyj17:
I have the failed login and constant searching for gps problems as previously posted by others.

I'm on a non rooted N1.

Any solutions?
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
Could you try this?

http://hotfile.com/dl/34961916/77a4893/out.apk.html

I didn't really modify anything, but it is built using newer apktool, so it may be more bug free.

I'm wondering... maybe Google Experience on Nexus authorizes apps in a better way, so it forbids access for my mod? Is there anyone with Nexus for who Latitude is working on modded GM? @scottyj17, could you try to find anything in a logcat (probably right after Maps start)?
[G1 Android Development] scottyj17:
Just downloading the new version now. Sorry to sound thick, what do you mean by logcat

Update: new version does the same. failed login and but has been able to identify a gps. Unlike the previous one. To note, i had no errors like this with your mod for GM version 4
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
I have installed OpenEclair for testing on 2.x. After running modded version I got "Login failed!" msg, but then notification about permissions to my Google account appears, I clicked it, selected "allow" and then Latitude logged in. Anyone knows anything about these permissions, especially why it may not work on Nexus?
[G1 Android Development] chicofiebru:
im getting the same Loggin error on nexus one, any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] chicofiebru:
i have this permision on notification bar too...and i click allow...im running rooted nexus one...any idea?
[G1 Android Development] lchiu7:
This version (out.apk) works fine on a stock standard N1. Buzz and Lattitude sign in okay with no prompting. Thanks for that.
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
Ok, now I'm confused... :-/ It works for some N1 users and don't work for others. Will be hard to debug, I don't have a Nexus One.

Maybe it isn't related to my mod? There are some results in Google for "nexus latitude login failed", but most of them are about something else.
[G1 Android Development] Rothy:
Still GPS problem on my non rooted Samsung Galaxy Spica 2.1. Constantly searching. No login problems.
[G1 Android Development] asci:
I can confirm that on my N1 CM 5.0.5.3 Latitude failed to login.

EDIT: a window with authorization request open up the moment you try to log in Latitude. Once you authorized it, it works!
[G1 Android Development] chicofiebru:
lchiu7 have and non root N1, and i have a rooted..it works fine for me but it have some problem log in...but suddenly it appear a notification on status bar saying that this app want to log in...ACCEPT or DENY and i click accept..i will get a screen for u
[G1 Android Development] lchiu7:
I have a stock N1 but have applied the OTA update.

First 4.1 release from Brut didn't work - well it kept on getting login error but then I didn't notice the notification about having to logon.

I then downloaded the latest version as linked to in this thread (out.apk). It worked fine - no logon screen and Latitude works fine as well as Buzz. I have had only one strange behaviour - when using Navigation once it crashed the N1 completely and I had to power it on again! Since then it has worked fine (as has all other Brut versions).

[G1 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
I really like the live wallpaper and this mod in general. I just have two questions:

1.) How do I zoom out in the live Wallpaper?

2.) When I navigate I don't get the "turn left in X meters" I am used to from other nav software. Is this normal or a configuration error. All I get is something like "Turn southwest on..." but only once I have turned already.
[G1 Android Development] canadiancow:
1) As far as I can tell, you can't.

2) That's because you're using it outside of the United States...not everything works (If you're in the United States, use the regular version of Google Maps)
[G1 Android Development] kherio:

Hi everyone. This is my first post on xda so be nice! I'm running the maps4.1.0.4126-brut6.apk build on unrooted HTC Desire and the nav works fine here in the UK. My Tracks still runs ok.

I have a few questions if I may:

Is maps4.1.0.4126-brut6.apk the latest mod?

Is there any fix yet for the garbled voice bug?

Thanks again for everyones help and awesome work getting this thing running.
[G1 Android Development] 5m00v3r:
yes

no

:-)
[G1 Android Development] beasjim:
Try two fingers at once tapping, just have some distance between the fingers. A usual double finger tap still zooms in for me.

BTW i have brut maps working as expected here in Australia, currently running Cyanogen, but had it fine on stock before. I would imagine you have more people with it working then not, but those that don't have it working are usually more likely to complain.

BTW new version out, 4.1.1 looks like multiple account support has been added.
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
Thanks for info, I will look into it.
[G1 Android Development] cottinghamm:
Well done fella, this is truly progress and why I love this community.

Like many others I have both Maps versions working happily, I am on Cyanmod (not latest) on N1 & there is no issue with it working at all.

Not sure what you had to do to get it working, but thanks all the same.
[G1 Android Development] cottinghamm:
If you are going to want to have things non-standard then you need to learn to use the tools old chap, there are many, many tutorials on how to use the Google tools, even from Google. Put the effort in & you will enjoy your device even more.
[G1 Android Development] canadiancow:
That's cool. One finger double tap to zoom in, two finger to zoom out.

I don't think it's very intuitive, but I guess it's hard to come up with some kind of gesture that will work with all the icons on top of the map.

[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
Do you mean modified 4.1.1 version or new features/fixes? :-)

What are changes in 4.1.1? Multiple accounts support? I really don't like if someone releases soft without a changelog...
[G1 Android Development] :No-Frost::
I don't know exactly the new stuff on the 4.1.1 but it would be good to see it (I supposed that if it's an update, must have improvements or bug fixes)...

Any way, I don't want to hurry you up in anything, you are doing an amazing job for us so all I can say about GM or any other stuff you are working on is thank you :):D

Well I will wait until a new version comes out :D ... Thanks again :D...
[G1 Android Development] Subbie171:
This might be a stupid question, I don't know, but since Brut decided to change the package name to his own, is there a way I can get it with the original name?

Reason: I just got a car dock and when I dock it, I can't use the direct buttons as they call the original google package name and the cardock force closes.

Thanks guys!
[G1 Android Development] canadiancow:
The Car Home app is pretty stupid.

I'm going to be updating Nav Launcher to optionally replace Car Home, if Navigation is the only feature you really need when in the car dock.
[G1 Android Development] Subbie171:
Thanks for the reply canadiancow! I will certainly use navlauncher to replace cardock, but for now it'd be cool to have it work. I will just use regular maps without navigation along with brut's version.

I'm reading up on apktool to change the package name so I don't have to bother you guys with it anymore.

Thanks again.

PS: not sure if it's been mentioned before, but brut's shows distance in imperial and google's shows it in metric, like it should be in my region.
[G1 Android Development] canadiancow:
That's strange. I definitely get metric in Canada, but you're not the first person who's mentioned it.
[G1 Android Development] bjtheone:
I also get metric in Canada... wonder if it is something funky due to the OP's location settings or if it is due to carrier settings.
[G1 Android Development] frad:
Hi brut,

Just a quick post to say thanks for this modded apk. I live in Canada and use your version very often on my Telus milestone. I'm dying for Google to open navigation to the rest of the world, but I'm pretty sure it's not coming soon until they have their own map data for each country.

Mind if I ask if there has been any progress on the existing navigation issues? The only one that would be cool to be fixed is the missing street name at the top. I believe this is the street name for the next street in the route. Since your modded maps seems to have knowledge of the current street name is it not possible to have it display on top?

I find I tend to use the navigation with the sound off myself...so the whole voice delay thing does not really affect me.

Anyways thanks again.
[G1 Android Development] canadiancow:
I think he's focusing more on apktool. Once apktool is working a little better, it will be a *lot* easier to try to fix Navigation.
[G1 Android Development] wahhh:
works well on milestone. Thanks!:D

Hello Brut, seeing you are online I gotta ask,

I live in Mexico, I have installed several versions of your modified maps but it still doesnt work, should it work anywere? I just click in get directions and I get a "no route found".

While it would be cool getting navigation working, if its not possible I would love to be able to use the "navigation view" even if its not telling me what to do, I just want to be able to use it.

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
It uses Google Maps Directions for getting data and Directions don't work everywhere.

As you can see there is no Directions data in your region, sorry.

Using Brut maps with car home app

First i will say thanks for your hard work for allowing me in the uk to use navigation.

I wanted to use car home app with your maps and after a lot of messing around i finally got it to work, by deleting maps and installing 4.0 it works fine with car home app. I didnt want to have your version installed along side the google originals.

If you do update your maps could you keep the app name standard so car home app will work with it please.

Cheers again.:D

[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
I didn't do it because no one could tell me, what was changed in 4.1.1 and I don't want to spent several hours for some unspecified fixes. Furthermore aTrackDog says that newest GM is 4.2, so I think we will have major update soon :-)

About that broken link... I don't know, what to do. I don't wanna start some upload-delete-reupload-delete-reupload fight, unfortunately hotlink does not inform uploaders about who requested file removing.

[G1 Android Development] canadiancow:
Yea...that way NavLauncher can detect that the user has an old version, and prompt them to update :p
[G1 Android Development] doncerdo:
Brut,

First of ll thanks for taking the time to build the app, it works flawlesly for navigation :)

That said, i know someone already asked you about hacking the car home app. I wnated to insist on that. Maybe the app doesn't need to be hacked but "linked" to you maps app. When gmaps (original) is not installed, even if brut is there, using the car home app to navigate crashes the app. If I install the gmaps (original app) I can use it but selecting the navigation option takes me only to the tur by turn option of goolge maps and not you navigation enabled maps.

I got the car dock for the N1 and having the car app would be nice because without it, I have to exit the app, go to the menu and open your app. I hope you understand my point and see if there is any way to link Car Home with your maps app.

Thanks and keep up the good work!
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
I said earlier that modding CarDock should be easy task and seems no one even tried to do it, cause... I've just did it in about 10 minutes ;-)

I've downloaded apk from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5147456#post5147456

Let me know if there is newer CarDock.apk or something like that. I don't use it, so I don't know.

Ahh, of course you need to uninstall original CarDock first and if it is a system app then you need root and some hacking to do it.
[G1 Android Development] doncerdo:
Brut,

Whoa, that was fast! Thanks! I uninstalled my Cardock app and tried installing yours, the system told me it couldn't install the app. I tried reinstalling the original app and it didn't work either :( any indications as to how to install?

Besides this i'm attaching the latest version of the cardock app its 2.1 update 1 .

Thanks again for your help!
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
How did you uninstalled original and how do you install modded apk? Are there any error messages? More info, man! ;-)

Thanks for newest CarDock. I have old G1 and I'm really confused about all these Desires, Legends, updates for them, etc. ;-)
[G1 Android Development] doncerdo:
I uninstalled by using root explorer and deleting the CarDock.apk from where it was installed (/system/apps), it was the only method that worked.

When I installed, the app the only messages I get are:

-a replace application dialog box that syas "The applicaction you are installing will replace another applicaction. All previous user data will be saved.

- After I hit ok on that message and then I hit install, I get an "Application not installed" message, only thing I can do is hit the "Done" button

Via adb I get this:

Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]

No probs with the app, if you need any other file from my phone just ask.

Cheers
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
I don't know much about odexing, don't have phone using this feature, but... maybe you have some old odex files in dalvik-cache, which you must delete manually?

You could try to logcat more information from device.
[G1 Android Development] doncerdo:
Got this when I try to install the original app:

I was able to reinstall it by copying the file back to /data/app and cleaning dalvik with Amon Ra recovery

But using your file, the method above doesn't work I get this instead:

Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] domenukk:
Your apk is odexed. either try to deodex it, or use another apk ;)

(there sould be a file with the same name and .odex as file extension in the same folder)
[G1 Android Development] doncerdo:
You got me there, in my /system/app folder I have a CarDock.apk and a CarDock.odex that's all I could figure out :P

What does deodex mean and how do I do it?

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Brut.all:
i don't get it too. My file wasn't odexed :-)

I think you have some **** left by original apk. But I don't really know :-)
[G1 Android Development] doncerdo:
I'll try to see what else I can find. All I know is that I'm using the latest official Google Nexus One ROM (rooted) which is 2.1 update 1. So far I can't uninstall Car dock cleanly by any method apk uninstall sends me a "Failure" message.

I agree that if I can clean all the crap the app makes it should probably work.

Thanks and if u have any ideas please let me know. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] bjtheone:
Based on the bit about the packages file I would try editing /data/system/packages.xml (make a backup first) and deleting all references to the original version of the app before trying to install Brut's modded version.

Given that you manually removed the old version it would not have updated the package file and this (I think) produces the signature mismatch. I remember having similar issues to this when I first started mucking around with alternate Map apps.
