    I just converted the Google Maps 6.4 .apk to .bar

    I tested it and seems like it still works like it should. I'm not sure what was in the change log.

    enjoy!

    added another dl link.

    If I already have a version on my PB can I just install over it or does it have to be uninstalled?

    You have the extension as .rar instead of .bar

    I manually changed it but could not get it to install.

    You need to open the .rar to get to the .bar.

    App loads ok, but when I top-down swipe and choose options, it crashes and I get "The application Maps (process com.google.android.apps.maps) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again".

    Anyone else seeing this? I'm running 2.0.0.7971.

    Any version later than 6.0 seems to crash when entering settings. You need to get into settings if you want to cache maps for offline use.

    6.3 works perfectly on my pb... Before the most recent update it crashed in settings, but now it doesn't. Haven't bothered to try any other versions, but I hear 6.2 is also stable.

    Well, I just tried 6.3 and 6.4 and both crashed when entering settings- and I'm not the only one who has experienced this problem. Are you sure you have 6.3 installed and not 6.0.3? Also, have you cached maps for offline use (the main reason you need to get into settings)?
