I’m not impressed with this update. Maps will not stay shut off on my stock Android 1.6 phone. It keeps starting itself up, which drains the battery. I have location, buzz, and all other features switched off. Why Google, why?

Correct. I’m running BB.8. It’s pretty cool, but I wouldn’t let it run for too long.

No, it killed my Droid’s power in about three hours.

Seeing as the Droid doesn’t do livewallpapers just yet, I’m assuming the live wallpaper map feature is only for rooted droids and n1′s?

Hello all,

How do I get or enable the live map wallpaper on my G1 with the latest cyanogenmod? Thanks,

The new map works great on the Nexus; I was hesitant at first. when reading the ratings in the market. It appears Droid user are the only ones experiencing the problem currently.

As I always do, I read user reviews before accepting an update, and the user reviews on this update are awful, so I’m gonna pass for now. I’m not gonna be a beta tester for Goog.

they are adding so much feature it’s getting bulkier, they should start releasing these features as plugins that way we can chose what NOT to install.

My bad. I realized that maps market aren’t supposed to be on the market.

I can’t find maps on my market. Maybe its just for the US? I have Milestone running 2.0.1
