    Google maps

    Im having serious problems with google maps and this rom. New update just came out and it wouldn't install so i tried deleting the apk from /system using root explorer, hoping it would work if I deleted the old one. Still wont work, says it is unable to install.

    after you deleted the file, have you tried to reboot and then delete the com.* file that shows up in managed apps?

    Try this home/menu/apps/manage apps/menu/filter/show all/ find the one for googles maps and uninstall. Then go to market and try the new one.

    This rom has the least problems of any ive used so far.... I probably shouldnt have deleted maps from the /system folder... any easy way to get it back sense the new update isnt working

    EDIT: I used root explorer and went to /system / apps and removed the maps.apk... removing google maps from my phone, and attemtped to instal the update, did not work.
    Reinstalling the ROM replaced maps, but the update still will not work.

    EDIT2: Another thing i noticed is that i no longer get notifications when apps are updated in the market... I used to on other ROMS ive used.

    since you deleted the file, now reboot your phone and if you go under apps/manage apps and you will see a file com.*.*(i forget what the file name is that is associated with maps) delete that file and you should be able to reinstall

    i had to delete the file from the system/app folder, then reboot, then went into manage apps and deleted the rogue com.* file(it wont have an icon). i then was able to install the update, which was really a new install.
