Out of curiosity, has anyone else noticed diminished location tracking with some of the newer versions of apps? My yelp and transit apps won't find my location unless I open google maps as well. I first started noticing this a month or two ago, and it might coincide with the newer google play services releases we haven't been able to patch.

I patched Yelp v5.5.1 and it works ok with Google Maps v7.6.1.
Scenario: Google Maps was closed. I tapped "Get Directions" in Yelp. Google Maps subsequently opened and showed the route from my location to the destination.

Can anyone patch the Endomondo app? It keeps saying Google Play Services is not supported. I admit I'm kind of lost on trying to do this whole thing on what files to install and where. Each time I've tried something, I can't tell if I have everything (maps, login, play, etc.)

Just finished patching the Endomondo app with the gui from Cobalt32. Going to check if it works better. Can see the maps now.

Unfortunately, it can't lock onto the GPS. The bigger problem is that loading the patched Google play that came in the output affected the GPS for my MapMyFitness Android app. It can't lock now also.

Fixed: Had to redo the Google Maps/Vending/Google Play install, though now Google Maps gets the "No Network Connection" error- I suspect due to it working fine with Google Login installed only, but once I loaded the patched Endomondo apk and the associated Google Play file, it messed it up.

Have you tried the Edomondo in BlackBerry World?

Yes. There are lots of features on the Android version that BB10 has without having to pay the annual premium membership fee. I've had the Pro version for years before BB10, but it no longer supports many of the other features.

Yeah, I wasn't referring to Google maps integration, but rather, obtaining an actual gps lock so that it can show me restaurants nearby.

Which version is your os? Thought they corrected those errors with 10.2.1.2141.

[eywong]

Yeah, I wasn't referring to Google maps integration, but rather, obtaining an actual gps lock so that it can show me restaurants nearby.

My GPS is usually off until Yelp (and similar apps) prompts me to turn it on. I see my position on a map within seconds after turn-on, which is fast enough for me.

Here an experimental version 0.3:

Changelog:

• Fixed patching logic where recompiling would fail in some rare cases due to a flag not being set
• APK temp folder is now completely cleaned up after patching (hopefully no more error messages about unclosed zipfiles)
• Experimental support for Stava running app

As my Blackberry still is being repaired I can't test the Stava patch. I believe I catched the right method, but someone should verify it it works.

Download GMaps Patcher Win 0.3

Good luck!

Hi Cobalt, the download link doesn't work anymore.

Hi! Strange, it works for me, but I'll upload a full version (exe and lib) in a few minutes. I'll create a new thread, as everything gets lost in this one. I will be easier to maintain if it is the first post of a new thread. Hope you all support me with that.

it worked for me. thank you!

Thanks, it's working now. And yes, I support the idea for a new thread.

Try patching the app without decompiling resources. Anyway, get the latest tool for patching here How to patch Android Apps depending on Google Maps and Google Play Services, also post the outcome there for more help.

I'm using .4 is there a newer version?

[Sally Mack]

I've had errors decompiling when patching multiple files back to back... so anyone with errors decompiling may want to close the patcher, open, and try again just to be sure.
