New Google Maps v4.6.0 - Vibrant Themes and Apps

Got it in Market running Eugene's JPM (2.2) - not sure if it will be avail for 2.1 also.

It's there for 2.1 as well.

Ugh, still can't hide the search bar. WTF, Google? At least make it an option.

Dialcode for JI2 GPS service menus

It would seem that the original *#*#1472365#*#* no longer works. It just stays at the dial menu. Have also tried with SGS info and servicemode apps and neither of those works on the new JI2 either. Any idea how to access those menus now? I would like to test the ms-assisted setting vs standalone with the new software.
I know eugene as a version of lbsmodetest that will do this but am hoping to stay purely stock for testing purposes.
If you're running LauncherPro or ADW, you can make a shortcut to it on your homescreen. In LP, long-press>shortcut>activities>lbstestmode>lbstestmode(first one)
Unfortunately I am running completely stock for now.
I dont understand, if you are running "completely stock" then it works. If you are running Eugene's ROM then you are not running stock.

It does not work on the *BETA* stock rom that was released, and currently in this rom without changing the files for the rom there is no way to access these settings.
Download "any cut" in the market. Use that app to make a shortcut to lbstestmode. Don't spend too much time trying to FIX the gps settings if you are one of the unlucky ones that still have problems after the last fix.

How to get the latest version of the Android Market

Hi,
I'm using the bionix final R1 rom and I noticed that I don't have the latest market on it. I currently have version 1714 and the market updater is version 1000. I know that the latest version should be 200x. I've tried look it up but i couldn't find a working solution.
I've also tried what the market help suggested which was launch the market hit home wait 10 min launch the market again, but no luck.
What version of the market you currently have installed?
Any ideas what can fix it?
Thanks

I have the android 2.2 market, it has some little things that make the experience more convenient like automatic updating of apps, and one button you can hit to update all your available updates if you choose not to use the automatic update feature.
My recommendation: Flash a 2.2 ROM and upgrade more than just the market. If you're on bionix non-fusion, you're missing out on a lot of progress made since then. I recommend Axura, I've flashed the last couple versions without trouble and everytime it's worked beautifully for me, with no tricks or headaches. Check it out.
I'm really happy with the Bionix Final R1 and the Core 2 kernel. My phone is really snappy and the battery life is really good! I don't have any complains actually. Everything just works. I thought the the only difference between the bionix final to the fusion is the touchwiz. What other features\ improvements are there?
By the way my quadrant score is 2800+
Do you know if I can just take the Vending.apk from any 2.2 rom and push it to mine?
I was going through the samething.but found the 2.2 market apk on here. Just install it and it will update your current market. Just search on here for it.its under the apps and themes area!

Here is the link to the home page.

Basically it just links to the gmail account the phone is using. And on other peoples phones i saw it would automatically download the App chosen on the computer onto the phone the gmail account was connected to.
Has anyone gotten this to work on their phones? I've seen it work on others who are not rooted and are just running stock from the factory. I'm wondering if its a root issue or maybe a rom issue im running into. I've installed multiple Apps on the site and they all say installed but on my phone they are not unless i installed them from the market on my phone. I'm currently running Nerov5 W/ DOW.
I'm also wondering if maybe its the market im using. Currently im using the "black market" found here

no problem here rooted axura

Transmit GPS via wifi tether?

Surprised there isn't an application for this already, if there is I haven't found it.
The idea would be to transmit gps data from a phone with standalone gps (droid x) to a device tethered over wifi which does not have standalone gps (nook color).
Seems like the solution for transmitting gps is always via bluetooth, but why not wifi?
Done! Checkout TetherGPS in the market. I'll have a "Lite" version ready later today so you can try it out first. I've tried it with the Honeycomb v4 image and Nookie Froyo 0.6.8 on my Nook Color and both work. It isn't showing up in the market on the NC though, so I'll post a client APK shortly.
I'll try to make a demo video sometime this week also. Google Maps and Navigation work great.

Unreal! There goes one need for bluetooth.
Go figure today is the day my nook is giving me issues.
Hopefully this works with eclair? I'll give it a try, thanks.
Totally works! I was happy to pay for it.
Had my location within 3 meters on the nook color running eclair.
Used wifi-tether from my droid x. It did appear to lockup my droid x. Had to do a battery pull.
Can I post this over in the nc forums?

Sure, go right ahead.
The only Android devices I've got are mine and my wife's Evos and the Nook Color, so my ability to test different devices is pretty limited right now.
Things I need to work on include:
-Lite version
-Better icons, appropriate sizes, etc.
-Better logging for errors
-Demo video
-Full instructions
The app still isn't showing up in the market on my NC. I'll build the Lite version with a full client and post the APK. That should make it easier to load on the NC for anyone else who can't see it in the market.

I got it through the market on eclair.
Just got back from a test drive...should have a youtube video up shortly. Thanks again. No more issues on droid x after the lockup. Yes the widget size is 1x1 but takes up 2x2.

Awesome, Thanks! I'll see if I can get the widget size to behave properly.
I tried sending you a PM, but I'm not sure it went through. Sorry if you get two.

Just DL'd... If you could make sure the app stays in sync with CM7 nightlies that would be great. I have the same phone NC combo, so this was obviously a feature I was searching for via BT. Cant wait to test later and make a new car mount for the NC.

Works great(TGPS) thanks for this one, EvO + NooK = winning....
Got it installed on my EVO and NC. Just trying to find a way to use the widget on stock Nootered NC. Any thoughts?
Awe-some! =)
Great app, just wondering if there's a way to get standalone nav apps to work with this?
Sygic Aura, for instance seems to require GPS hardware, or NMEA strings and not just location data... is there a way to spoof this?
Edit: Or can this app already do this and I'm just missing it...?
I found it in the market on my Eris, but can't find it in the market in Nookie Froyo.

Download the lite apk on http://www.comptonsoft.com. It includes the full client and a lite server.
It seems to work properly on my HTC Incredible and NC, both running CM7.
I would really like to see the addition of regular app shortcut toggles instead of just the widgets, though, to permit integration with launcher tools like Multicon, Simi Folders and Desktop Visualizer.
My 3G connection is so poor (speed) that navigating while loading maps on the fly just plain won't work. The Nooks connection to my Optimus V is fine, both the wi-fi and the tethergps. I just tried Aura, and I would have sworn that it retrieved the location for a moment, and now it doesn't. Not sure how to get this to work.
Rooted Eclair on Nook Color, all stock on the Optimus.

I should probably note that I have set the Eclair on NC to allow mock locations, but I am not able to find the setting for allowing GPS location as the tether GPS on Honeycomb video shows.
Okay, apparently it's Sygic - Aura doesn't allow mock locations. Sorry for the confusion.

I having the same problem I am only nootered and running Zeam launcher. The is no option to run widgets.
Edit: I figured out how to do the widgets with Zeam but, when I run the app on NC I get GPS not enabled message.

Latest Google Maps?

Currently on CommRom 2.1...
Going to travel to Italy with my fascinate, just for wifi usage. Noticed my google maps is not the version with the map caching. Anyone know if I can update to the latest one? It says I'm fully updated in the market, so maybe it's not "officially out" for fascinate?

Check the version number in about. You should be on 5. 10

Thanks for version #. I think my market was messed up, got it to update, and can turn on caching in the "labs" tab. Epic.
