[Q] How to fix Force Close fc on Google Maps - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Edit 2:
After few weeks of use and try to dont install any unessesery app the problem came again, so still maps dont work even without fancy widgets
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit 1:
And i figure it out damn that was hard:
The problem occurs only when I install Fancy Widgets. Now Im using stock ****ty se clock but maps works well. So thats all i hope someone who have simmilar problem could find this tread.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK, I dont know where to look for help more.
I search the forum, all x10 roms and help treads even on the other forums also post some message in my rom (WB) treads nobody knows how to fix this or gives me advice that didnt work.
I got a fc on google maps almost every time i turn it on only reboot helps it works few minutes but when i need it again i get the FC i tried wait until maps around my position loads (but i thik i dont have to it should work).
I didnt have this problem few months ago. Im using still the same Wolf's 4.0.4 rom. I tried update to v5 (battery drain) and v6b7 (newest) still the same problem.
I did few times repair in PC Companion root, xrec, erase (full wipe) every thing i could even sd card every time i do a clean install, also again clean Dalvic Cache, reinstal the app i tried everything really.
It happend before i unlocked BL and after it, on stock and on custom kernels.
Navigation runs well but the maps... im so frustrated.
Got no fc on stock but i cant live with the stock se system any more.
Any advice?

Yes i did still fc, once i run stock for a half for a day no fc's then i flash custom still 4.0.4 and there was no fc but got to try some apps and system was slow so i make a clean install again and fc came back

---

Make backup and try other ROMs,like freexperia or stock with zKernel.Maybe is ROM,or kernel.

Try stock with zKernel,just remove stupid se apps,i score 1598 pts in Quadrant Advanced.Its fast,stable and beautiful.

Just root ur phone first,install root explorer from market,with it u can delete se apps.Apps are in system/app,find list of apps that u can delete,make backup of all apps in that folder(copy apps someware on sd card) and delete unnecesary apps.Link for kernel:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1135475
Its OCed to 1.13 ghz,less laggy than stock.I tried other ROMs but this combination is the best,most stable and fastest for me.

thanx for help guys have to try it.
"uninstall those app..then fix permission in xrecovery...if dont work..try full wipe" - try it before on wolfs rom :/ didnt help i always do a full wipe
I tried install theGo12 rom but still force close on the maps :/
I like to have sortcuts on my desktop so I always install those apk from arc: http://forum.se-x10.pl/topics36/widzety-wyciagniete-z-xperii-x10-arc-update1-vt2275.htm but only turn on/off widgets for wifi, bt, not all of them etc.
When i install new rom maps are going great but after go sms, fancy widget, opera, evernote and few reboots i get fc :/ this is so fu***n annoying

---

older version of google maps (v 5.*) is working fine.
newest google maps v6 is not working properly on my x10 +cm7 (both fxp052 rom and achotjan v4.1)

---

have u got a apk file? I should try maybe this will help
its here on xda tnx

---

i have the same effekt, on FXP, maps 6.x
killing maps in settings (instead of rebooting) helps to render the phone useable again.
maps 5 seems not to have this effect.

---

I always did a reboot, fact it helps but it is so annoying. GM v5.0 is **** so have to try stock with zkernel we will see.
