why can't install google sky map on android 2.2?
It would help to know which Android 2.2 build you are using...

I am having the same issue with installation of Google Sky Map. It seems to be the ONLY application that I cannot install... and trust me, I've tried 'em all. (NOT LITERALLY...)
Anyway, I'm using the "MattC" build of Android 2.2, with HTC Sense.
I have installed all of my paid applications, various "out of market" apps, and even other Google certified apps.
I'm not too sure what the issue could be...
that's not only cannot be installed.

Setting>SD ....>unmount sd

(ShubDRAFT froyo still can't unmount sd card, anyone has solution?)

Works like a charm, neocore and skies of glory now good to go on my froyostone!!!!
(Flying with tilt sensor skiwompus not so easy BTW)
Also, remember to remount after install. Worked so far on every I app I've had a problem with.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Install the program "Auto Mount" from Market and remount your SDcard.
It's because of this feature in the latest version of Sky Map:
1.5.2: Move app to sdcard (Android 2.2 users)
p.s. Sky map is not working properly because the compass sensor is not auto callibrating.
haha is easy...on froyo

Thank you sir !
Everytime I unmount the SD card and try to install Google sky map, I get a message saying "there is not enough space available to install the app".
I was having this problem on my Nexus 1 running CM6. This trick worked like a charm. Thanks!
I didn't have a problem installing Sky Map, but the "aim at a spot in the sky" function doesn't work. It's stuck pointing where it was when I started the app and doesn't turn.

Is the G-Sensor function of your phone disabled? You might check to see if there's an option or script to enable/disable it, either in settings or an app. (e.g., gScripts) Sure sounds like it.
Just wanted to report that although the new Copilot updates no longer work with the nook color (imei issues), the Sygic Navigation app (formerly Sygic Aura) now works as it no longer requires internal GPS. I used it on my Nexus S before I took the phone back and then asked them to switch devices. I now have it running on the Nook Color using the Beta 3.1 with the .32 overclocked kernel. The device code used for Sygic is generated from the sd card being used. I also still use the older Copilot apk that doesn't require imei. Copilot works well too and probably better with more up to date maps. And $5 is a better price than what Sygic Navigation costs.
Can u describe exactly how u made Aura run on your NOOK?
With version 3 I didnt have any luck.I installed app from market, I downloaded maps, but when it starts, it gets me back to homescreen.

You need to use an external GPS, enable bluetooth, and also download GPS bluetooth provider free from the market. Turn on your GPS device, enable bluetooth on the Nook Color, and then start the GPS bluetooth provider app, and finally launch Sygic Navigation. It should open now.
I'm using Bluetooth GPS and an external GPS. I also bought and loaded Sygic but, when I start Sygic, the screen goes black, you can see the arrow in the bottom tray then the app closes and returns to main screen without any explanation.
Running CM7.0.2 from sdcard. Wondering what might be the difference in that yours is working?

Is bluetooth enabled? Did you start bluetooth gps? Did you get a satellite fix? Differences between your setup and mine: I'm not running off sd card, running 3.1 beta with the .32 oc kernel. It is my guess that running CM7 off the sd card is causing the problem.

Please give me link for 3.1 beta then.
I have tried also running the app from emmc and I had also gps fix, but I always get the same situation:just back to homescreen.
Also I have read somewhere that it doesnt work with Android 2.3.3.Maybe this is the problem??

The CM7 .32 kernal beta build which you can get from the first page of the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960537 is 2.3.4. http://kan.gd/ixm
Other Navs
Was looking through some other threads - many additional offline map apps are discussed here. Downloaded Mapdroyd - seems to work CM7. Bought Navdroyd ($7.20) which also has navigation via GPS. Downloading maps now so I'll let you know. BTW - both of these work offline.

It doesn't. You'll have to find an older version (.504) or try Sygic Navigation. Here is a link that may help with the former solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1051972.html

Question - I've got Sygic loaded and it FC with the older version. Opened it after reading your post (thanks) and it worked - asked for email pw etc. Then it asked for product code - ?? I think this one was bought ( might have been free - don't remember) but it came through the Android market and as such does not come with a product number ( looks like a registration number). Is this number located somewhere in a file folder?
Thanks for any help.

With the version I mentioned, I didn't use any registration code in order to use the program.

Hi guys,
Well... I have installed recently CM7 6.5 and Kernel 18.1. I changed the kernel version (to v18) because of the big battery drain and i can't use Maps and Navigator!
I don't remember if i tried it with Kernel 18.1, but when i open these apps, they keep loading, and loading, and screen's light turns off and nothing... they don't run!
I have tested other apps, and they run normally, the trouble is in these two apps...
=\
Someone have a solution?
Obs.: I have installed street view too and i don't use 3G.
Thanks!
Nobody knows about it?
Please, someone! Help me!

id say flash back 18.1 and see if it works. maybe its a kernel problem.
if that doesnt work, try reflashing gapps

I reflashed maps application and for my surprise, the app run normally, without any problem... maps and navigator.
Well... i closed the app and when i tried it again, a problem appeared. I can see only the last map charged... if i search for any adress, it keeps charging, and charging, and the new map doesn't appear. In the navigator, the app can't find my location...
What curious case! Anybody knows what i can do to fix it?
Thanks!
Obs.: I can reflash maps several times and it works until i closed it, after sometime running the app.

Please, someone...

Google Maps requires data connection unless you have prefetched the maps before (latest versions' only feature) -> PEBKAC.

You need a WORKING DATA connection, period. You can prefetch some 10 "maps" (IIRC 10 miles diameter) in latest versions to avoid that.

Hello XDA community,
Unfortunately I seem to be having a problem with my GPS, I travel a lot so this has become a pain. I have tried flashing custom ROMS but nothing seems to change. I used @Adam's method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2272066 to unlock the bootloader. If I could be guided to a solution I would appreciate it!
Maps won't lock on, with "Searching for GPS..." displaying on the bottom.
I ran Faster Fix with North America Region and nothing happened.
I also downloaded GPS Status and reset / downloaded my A-GPS Status
Try this:
"Go to Settings
Application manager
click all at top
go to Google services framework
clear data
Then
go to settings
Application manager
click all at top slide bar
go to maps
clear data
uninstall updates
Go to location services
turn off VZW Location service or disable it all together if you have the option
Power cycle phone
update maps from android market if your phone auto updates after you reboot that's ok, my note 2 auto updated maps and my gps worked fine
That's it your GPS should be working now"

I've had the same issue. My searching for GPS lock sign would not even turn on with Jedi rom. And with cleanrom, the gps lock sign would come online but it would not lock. I tried the jellybeans rom, and finally it worked. One thing i've found different with the jellybeans rom against the others were that if you go to location settings, you can see the VZW location option, whereas for the other two it wasn't there. I don't have this option checked by the way.
Just giving you my 2 cents based on my experience. Maybe it could fix your problem if you install jellybeans rom and then follow the instructions suggested by the other guys here.
Have you tried Pimp my rom and replaced the GPS files with it?
Also you need to go in Settings, under accounts click your Google account, go to location access and make sure it is turned on for your phone. I have flashed roms before and done everything except check that and for some reason it should then on when you turn on your Location and Google search under GPS but it occasionally won't on the first lock on some roms.

Every time this happens to me I just boot into recovery and wipe internal storage and this fixes the problem. Beware, you lose your internal storage so backup any important files to an external sd card.

It may just be an issue with Hangouts, however I would lean more toward a AOKP issue. You could download GPSTest to replace the to replace the AGPS data..... It may just be a AOSP bug with Hangouts, however this js the first I'm hearing of it.

Hello, I have a Redmi 5 plus (Note 5). GPS seems to be OK with Google maps and other apps, but it is unusable with my favourite navigation app: Sygic.
The navigation is continuously paused showing a message: searching position.
I have checked that the Sygic app has its permissions OK to use location services.
Anyone is experiencing similar issues?

yup i think there is an issue with GPS on software side, I keep getting constant message in instagram searching for gps.. or sometime in idle system mode searching for gps. But in Maps it works fine. I think this issue started when i updated my phone. would love to see some who has not updated the phone to the latest 1.4gb update.
I have exactly the same problem!
GPS works fine with everything except Sygic.
I made a few contacts with sygic support, but until now, nothing was updated.
Same problem with Mi5
Hey guys,
I have the same problems with the GPS signal.
Does anyone have a solution meanwhile?
