Maybe your try to uninstall Google maps and then reinstall it from market.
It's a bit confusing to got this error while updating google maps?!?
Maps don't use videos and market also?!
If this problem anyway is there, maybe the market saved a wrong option to open updates.
So go to: Settings>Applikation>Running Apps>All then clear the data from "market"
CHEERS

Thanks Hannibal for the quick reply. I tried to do what you have mentioned, but its not working. So I downloaded 5.11 from internet and installed it on my SGS2. But still there is no navigation with the maps. Showing navigation is not supported in your country. How can we bypass this?

Sorry but I think you must have a look for an alternative navigation.

Yeah it's in there, click "top free" from the homepage of Market and scroll down or search for it.
Cinabnett, you couldn't find any references to people already using Market on the HD2?
...can probably close this one
Maps should come preinstalled, but there is an update to 4.4 which adds the Places app to the drawer.

I`ve alredy do that many times, useless. I`ve tried and entering from Google.com launching Google Maps from those aplications ( along with Mail, Books, Pictures etc. ) and it "redirect" me to Android Market, showing that it couldn`t find the maps.
It`s posible to be some kind of restriction ?
Edit. thnx mr_bilionaire.

If you still can't find it or haven't tried, go to the Market and search "Google" or if u want I can upload a QR code so u can scan it and it will take u straight to the app in the market.

It looks like there is some kind of restriction.
Look for an app called Market Enabler. It will allow you to change your region code.
Then you will have access to more applications.
Some Google Apps Won't Update
I get the notifications from within or Market on on the Status Bar that updates are available, specifically for Maps (to 4.5), and for the gMail app. However, when I attempt to install them, the install always fails. Similarly, I am unable to install the Google Sky Map (?) application for the same reason.
I'm running Darkstone's FroyoStone Sense v2.
Any clues, suggestions, or ideas?

Try unmounting your sd card, this can be done in settings, and then reinstalling the apps. re-mount your sd card after installing.

Yes, un-mounting your SD card will do the trick. I cannot install any google apps until I do this. Google Maps, Google Earth, GoogleS kyMap etc.

Google Maps Offline Viewing - "Not Available" Solution

The new update of Google maps 6.7.0 denies you to save cached areas for offline viewing. It's a common problem and many users report of the message "Not available" when they try to save an area for offline viewing.
The solution:
So solve the "Not Available" problem in Google Maps (Android), you simply download the older version, 6.6.0 from this place and installs it.
good stuff man, i dont really like this new feature of the gmaps thingie... will keep this version for a bit.
by doing a brief research i can find many people with the same issue, and we are talking about major urban areas.
sometimes google does something really cool but with some very stupid mistakes, wonder why....cheers
Nyc, also wondering if it possible to save bigger areas of the map.
Well I'm on 6.9.0 in the UK and I can save for offline. You might want to upgrade to this version.

Ditto for me but save does not work even after clearing existing pre cached areas.
Its actually missing in the menu where it once was .

The off-line caching has been moved from the labs settings .
Later versions
now turn cache on via settings .
Go to map location Menu Make available offline Select area = new off-line map
So instead of hitting the address and opening a search bar that includes Off Line cache this area . It is now in the menu settings .

Offline maps are not available in Malaysia too.
I'm using offline maps in Bangladesh. Works great. Up to 29mb per block which pretty much covers Dhaka city. On latest map

When you're off Wi-Fi or 3G/4G, you'll have 'OFFLINE LIST' below the map.
For me, 6.12.0 sometimes shows this 'Not Available' and sometimes fails to completely download a map, but deleting the unfinished download and restarting the application seems to fix it.
P.S. Came here from Google and just now saw that this topic is in the S III forum - well, I don't think this issue is specific to it - it also manifests on my Galaxy Nexus.
No good in Korea
I am in Seoul, and it does not work here. It works for other countries (US, Europe...) though.
I wonder is there something about Korea. Last year, there were zero games in Android market here, because of some local laws. It has been solved since.
you still have to deal with the offline maps getting seizures randomly during navigation. the only way is to quit nav and come back in otherwise it won't update location and start showing grey squares.....
no idea why it's an offline map issue only

Is this workaround still working?
Do you know if is possible to install two different versions of an app on Android?
Thank you fro you help
Is it maybe a map-licence problem? Looks depends on country...
Try to pre-cache Hungary...

Hi there,
you are absolutely correct with the License Issue:
support.google.com/gmm/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2650347&topic=2649131&ctx=topic
Get something like the Route 66 app. You can all the maps I guess for free as long as don't want navigation ...
Another Work around?
Back when I was using a jail broken iPhone 3G....there was a method of downloading ALL Google Maps files you wanted via a special program and then storing them in the iPhone for use off line. This activity was NEVER envisioned by either Google or Apple.
Why can't this feat be duplicated for Android?? Would solve all those irritating, "Map not available for this region" problems...
I have the S4 int version with 4.2.2, and i can't install the old version of maps.Did all the preparation with deinstalling the updates for the current Maps,and enables the "install from unknown sources".Ask me do i what to install it,and when i hit yes, show me "the app is not installed".
.
Anyone with 4.2.2 or newer,successfully installed the 6.11.1 maps application?

Device freezes when looking at app screenshots on google Play.

Hi I got a Brand new Samsung Galaxy Mini 2, great device, everything is perfect only problem I got is that when I'm in Google Play and want to look at the screenshots of an app, and swipe between them the device freezes, then vibrates and sends me back to Google Play, sometimes it gives me an error message, I have done like 3 factory resets but it doesn't fix it, any recommendations?
Thank You
Someone?
What version of Google Play are you on ? Have you tried Re-loading Google Play ?

I'm on the latest, which is 3.9.16. I have noticed that if the screenshots on google play are in landscape, there is no problem switching between them (eg. Nova), and if I hold the device sideways, I can switch between the screens even if they are portrait screenshots with no problem, wondering if there es a problem with the screen size, everything in any other app is perfect, I tried viewing pictures on the IMDB app and works perfect is just when clicking the images on google play.
thanks.
OK, the problem is related to google play 3.9.16, I know because in manage applicationd I uninstalled google play updates so it went to a previous version, and it works perfect, the problem is that it updates by itself back to 3.9.16 and the problem comes back. any ideas? maybe a way to stop it from updating?
Thanks

You can use Titanium Backup to keep it form Updating. Or you can go into Menu - Settings - Applications - Manage applications - Market Updater. Then Force Stop it from there. But I think you might also just want to try the latest version of the Play Store. You can find it v3.9.17 HERE. The article has the Download links, and info on what's new.

Remix OS Google Map

I install Google Map in Remix OS 2.0 on my desktop, but it cannot show the location and the app hang. ...
Please help.
Lawrence
Same problem here. I guess we need to wait for the next OS release to get this fixed. By the way, Google earth and Sygic are working.
Best, maris
I have exatly the same problems. Google Maps and any apps using Google Maps don't work. The problem is probably as Remix doesn't recognize properly location.

Sorry to hear about that. Do you have any other google apps installed? Go to settings and applications. Select google play store. Delete data. Open chrome and type in the search field "google play services", should take you to the google play store and it should update google play services. Install the "google" app and make sure the cards are working (to make sure play services is working correctly). Go back to settings and then put location settings on "high accuracy". Make sure google maps is set on full screen. Then launch google maps.
Nothing help. Google Services can't be updated as it's ... updated to the latest version. Apk Google works with some little problems but it works. Maps are in full screen - doesn't help. Cashe cleaned - same, nothing. Maybe next Remix version will change it.
Sampe problem here, it's cannot load the map
Google maps cannot detect your location as you are using desktop and it does not have a gps or and google maps search for gps and gets crashed because theres no gps so eighter remix os have to disable gps but it cant because some devices have gps
Same problem here Laptops do not have a GPS. I have set the location services to Network WIFI only and still cant find my location. Google maps crashed and all other apps that use location will not give me my location.

No google cards on my LG G watch and reminders give error

Hi, I just bought this and the package arrived an hour ago the update is downloading but for some reason, my google card (I don't know why but I only have weather and stories) won't sow up :| and location the google app settings give me error when I open them!
but anyway the only thing i see on my lg gwatch is the steps and notifications like viber, how can i get more cards and then add them to my g watch? like even the simple weather!
and my bigger problem is that whenever i try to create any kind of remind it doesn't work, it works on the google app on my phone. other stuff like note to self or "how tall is the empire state building" work!
EDIT: After updating to lastest version reminders work. still no google cards ;(
Android Wear app is us to date? As well as Google app? What OS?
Latest Google app versions don't display separated cards anymore, but you should get one that you can swipe to see other cards.
You said that settings of Google app don't open? Try clearing data on phone then reconfigure it.

and i tried factory resting my watch and setting it up again while connect to a VPN but it doesn't work still no google now cards! I set the location to power saving so it can't find me using GPS :S
You mentioned VPN, so maybe you are in a country where Google Now doesn't work (for some reason that Google thinks it's not supposed to work)?

Nothing useful on that post. already read that and it says "Blank" not no google cards at all!
Not useful for fixing it maybe (now, new replies may be added with more info), but useful because it's the same issue. Good luck.
