Google forces removal of Google Maps from Mobile GMaps

The new version of mgmaps has no Google maps as the developer Cristian Streng received a "cease and desist" from the "Google Enforcement Team"

Mobile GMaps :: View topic - Google requests removal of Google Maps support from MGMaps

He has however added a "Custom Maps" setting where you can add any mapping application and get maps from there.

So:

http://mt.google.com/mt - URL for custom maps to give Google Maps
http://kh.google.com/kh?v=20 - URL for custom maps to give Google Satellite

No hybrid yet, I'm sure someone will figure out a way ;)

Rich

WOW! The "Google Enforcement Team", eh? Sounds like they're about to send 'The Boys' round!

Well, this should give an excellent program some good publicity... And I'm not talking about Google Maps!

Talk about shooting themselves in the foot and shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted!

Aren't I glad that I've the recent MGmaps downloaded and stored... That'll last me a good while.

Most likely but as has been stated on several different occasions elsewhere on the 'Net, MGmaps predates Google Mobile Maps by a considerable period of time!

But when does that ever stop big firms with lots of money for expensive lawyers?

They prob also had a patent lying around for many years on it.

Post n95 google earth


This question itself betrays that google earth does work on n95. It worked on mine,very well, however I don't live in west. Some weeks past my device became infected with some virus( i'm simple plain man not i.t. interested one) I myself could not fix the problem and didn't use this device. Now it's back and may enjoy using it. I thank you in advance if your advice works.however I am also of the view that google is also a party to this problem.
