    I'm having an issue with Google Maps on my Storm. When I open up the program it stays in portrait mode with the sure type keyboard open. I am able to use use it to find places and get directions. However, once the switch from the directions list to the map I cannot switch back. All the icons on the map like the zoom icons, etc., don't work. When i click the screen it asks me if I want directions to the point that I clicked. Also, scrolling vertically is reversed. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program using DM. I haven't deleted it using that option on the handset. I've reset Google Maps and cleared the cookies. I've done a battery pull. Everything else on my Storm works well and i am quite happy with it. I am using the .75 OS. Has anyone else experienced this and can help me out? Is there a preference that I am missing?

    Options > Advanced Options > Applications

    Select Google Maps (dont click).

    Press the Blackberry button.

    select Disable Compatability Mode... (hopefully its there).

    Might be an older version of google maps too...

    Nope. That fixed it. Thanks for the help. I'm not sure how the Compatibility Mode was enabled.
