• Google Maps Discontinued

Lev26 That one is the one I have been using, and definitely not good

      Flippy What about the basic maps, without a pointer?

            Lev26 Didnt try. Do you have the file?

                Flippy I used that method a few times to install xapks on my xp3, but there might be problems when trying to modify it, without going into detail, you can't modify each piece because some are not a full app, and you prob can't just modify the main one because then it prob won't work with the parts that haven't been modified. I'm thinking that maybe you can work around it by installing the xapk on a smartphone (or xp3) using the above method or the apkpure app, and then you can extract the app to apk using an apk extractor.

                      Techgen.....and then modify the apk? or modify it before? And can you really extract an XAPK and make it an APK?

                          Flippy And modify the apk. If you extract the xapk with 7-zip (or similar program) inside will be a bunch of apks, one main one, usually one for the dpi one for the architecture and a bunch for languages, you just off the English one. But being that it's all one app it needs to be installed as one package using the install-multiple command.

                            Flippy What I meant at the end with apk extractor is an app that will make an apk out of any app that's installed on the phone. So once you install the xapk onto a phone you should be able to extract it as a regular apk

                              Flippy I do but I rather not post it, as the pictures are not blocked...
                              As of now it works.

                                          Flippy Sorry for late response, I only occasionally come online. Will do.
                                          Yms That would be great. Many people would want that. Where do I send it?
                                          I should clarify that this is the version that was once on the apps4flip site.

                                              I did find out that this version stopped working on my brothers exalt, while still works on my classic. Maybe its only exalt?

                                                  Lev26 Which version are you referring to?

                                                      SamFried i tried using that once but it wasnt working for some reason

                                                        I just pulled this apk from the play store and it works on my xp3 without any modifications, I didnt have time to modify it, but the good news is, its not making me crazy about google play services, im not sure if its because i had a working google maps before or this version doesnt need it for some reason. heres the apk below if anyone wants to modify it and test it on other phones.
