New Google Maps 7.0 with new UI - One (M7) Themes and Apps

I take no credit, just passing the word:
See attachment below. THIS apk will only work if you've upgraded your One to 4.2.2. Users on 4.1 will have to wait until its rolled out to their account

Quick review: Love the UI, but it is pretty sluggish... Definitely not a smooth 60fps.

no, just download, and install it. It will replace the current version

No need, it's apk so you can install it like any other app would.

seems working very good on IC 4.2.2

Google promised us last year that we can download offline maps for Google maps,is it the case now with this new version?

Why'd you guys need to push it. I s noticed by market there was an update. I guess some people were getting it later

Don't forget you lose off line maps, if that is important to you don't update!

The ability to save offline maps has been part of maps for quite some time now. Look in settings under offline & cache I believe

Except it doesn't exist in v7.0.0.

If i try vocal search, the app crashes.
Anybody have this issue?

type in "ok maps" and it will preload the displayed area. it dont seem to be able to cache as much as the old version does

waze > maps

Tried downloading twice and just getting Parse Errors.

It was available for most regions for awhile, then an update removed it again for tons of regions. I mean wtf man Google? What's the point of showing me the "Download this area" button if you won't let me click it.

Is it just me or is performance in the new version quite sluggish? On the plus side, I really like how they finally fully integrated and updated the Navigation UI.

I reverted to old market since new market was very laggy on my EDGE network.I cant even migrate to 3G because in my country, 3G oprates at 2100Mhz band which has very poor indoor penetration,so its not worth paying premium price for 3G

not worried at all just an observation
The scrolling seems very laggy, also it looks like google is trying to save on the amount of ram the app uses by constantly loading and unloading images which really sucks.
The market would be so much smoother if it just loaded all tabs at once and cached the images

[Q] So... Anything new on Smart Updates?

Still gotta DL the WHOLE app (eg. a 1GB game update) instead of just the new/replaced files that Google announced will be launched with the JB release.
Smart Update: http://www.theverge.com/2012/8/17/3248874/google-play-store-smart-updates-enabled
Anyone know what going on with that?
I don't know the technical details of the technology, but from what I read about it I assume it only works for changes in the APK. Games often contain a lot of graphic data, which probably renders this technique kinda useless
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I'm pretty sure they are already enabled but they still show as if you are downloading the entire file. So there is no way to know when they are put to use and how big the apk diff files are.
Busybox free uses it..and facebook 1.9.9 update too...
With the last updates it was finished within seconds..the download....
Interesting. So how does Google select which apps start using it? Or is it some kinda automated update adding apps to its list for Smart Update support?
Noo the devs of the apps must build it in aka support it

I'm pretty sure that isn't the case. Google automatically enables smart app updates for all (I presume) apps. This was said at the I/O conference that developers didn't need to do anything and personally I haven't seen any new API calls nor manifest lines that I need to add.

FWIW, I updated Dead Trigger the other day and it only downloaded around 500k of updated data... so, yea, it does work for games as well.
Again, it depends on the APK and the changes involved.
Something I noticed the other day: the progress bar on the Play Store was slow, and would cut off somewhere in the middle just before updating. If you want to see the real update progress, look in the notification shade.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I think its an switch that the dev must activate to use it
Yes..u r ri8...notification bar shows correct % of update where as progress bar shows size of kbs downloaded...

Yes, I have noticed this also recently. So I guess it was a slow rollout.
I have encountered several updates that use this. I remember Google saying that it is something that will happen automatically and not something that will require any changes on the part of the developers

Is it version 4.3.1? I don't an update available in the Play Market
Not sure that I like it. Only 4.3.1 is in the Play Store, not the 4.5 update yet.
I liked the 4.3.1 because it shows me my categories on the left side. This just looks like the phone version and only has the sender/message preview. Lots of white space in landscape mode.

With the advent of the new navigation drawer that can be swiped into view from any screen, a specific tablet version need not exist. This is incredibly clever design by Google. Not to mention the innovative "Swipe to refresh" animation.

Just an FYI everyone, if you are running a HALO enabled rom, you must disable HALO before trying to install this apk. HALO prevents the installation of 3rd party (apps not on the play store). You can re-enable it afterward.

Ok - I don't like it, but I can see your point.
However - have you found a way to not waste all the space recovered by not showing labels and actually display messages? On a Stock N7, I went from >14 messages visible, plus my quick labels selection to a display of <10 messages on the screen, and each message has less of a preview.
If the design is to maximize utility, I would expect to be able to do more, not see less and require more interactions to get anything done.

[Facer] Angles face (Recreation)

I no longer distribute this watch face because I got a request from Jose Azua (the creator of the concept).
So I've seen this amazing concept by Jose Azua, but it's been around for a while and hasn't been spoken about for a long time.

I don't have the watch yet, so I don't know where the card is
I'll try to position it better when I get the watch (I'll be getting one as soon as it comes to Amazon official retailer).
Also I'm trying to make smooth animations now, so I'll either upload this face when I've succeeded or either gave up
