Hi,

I updated my Xperia Ray with ICS offcial update with PC companion. After the update, Google Maps applicaton is not working as it was before.

01). My location on the map is shown as a blue dot instead of the blue arrow.

02). North up/Track up button is not working.

03). It takes longer than usual to detect my location. (sattelite signals are perfect and recieving from 7 sats)

I have ticked all three options in Settings>Location Services

I have also turned on wi-fi

I updated the app with app store and still same.

I have attached some pictures to this thread.

Please help.

Thank you.

the reason it's only a dot, its bc you are not moving, but try this

settings -> applications -> manage applications -> maps -> clear data/cache and uninstall updates

restart your phone and then check again

Hi,

Thank you very much for your reponse. I have uninstalled updates but it didn't help. When I press the track up button nothing happens.

and the arrow is not shown when I move.

that's quite odd, how about if you repair the phone with SUS

Update Service (SUS)

I'm also having the same problem with google maps in my Ray. This problem must be solved my the Xperia team or by G-maps developers ???
