Hate to downgrade but if thats the workaround for now too bad.
Hope someone with interim knowledge help.
Same problem here with Nexus S stock ROM ICS (4.0.3) non-rooted.
Strange thing is, if I keep trying, after a few times, it works.
Correction:
Actually, I managed to get it to work 2 times (one after clearing cache memory and data).
I didn't have any problem with 6.3.0 changepn version. I had to downgrade to this version until someone fixes it.
Thanks for your work!

I have been using this by miloytyn and it works without issues for me (non-root mod for Maps 6.2.0)...

Just hope that miloytyn will make another non-root mod for Maps 6.4.0 as well, as his previous version works on my phone without FC... @miloytyn: when you have the time, could you please make a non-root mod for Maps 6.4.0, please?

Well I can make it next week, but I don't think it helps. I have only changed modified version to work non-rooted phones. What could help is that if szihs would make the modified version and I would update it to non-rooted. Szihs probably does something differently compared to ownhere, which makes maps to work in ICS.
I hate downgrade too. But if older version work, then no choice I or we have to sticked with it.
Let hope stian230, Brut.all and ownhere can find the trouble to that strange FC for current and future release.
Thank you my friend. I'll try out milotyn version tonight and hope it work for my Galaxy Note too.I have been using this by miloytyn and it works without issues for me (non-root mod for Maps 6.2.0)...

Thank you very much for your kind reply and help, miloytyn.
@szihs If possible and when you have the time, please mod Maps 6.4.0 and share it with us. Then miloytyn can make a version for un-rooted phones like mine and others. Ownhere's 6.4.0 changpn for un-rooted phones seems to force close on my phone. I have a Galaxy Nexus running ICS 4.0.2 stock ROM and it is un-rooted. It would be highly appreciated, definitely!
Just to clarify, I am not taking anything away at all from the hard and great work of ownhere. It's just that the changepn version doesn't seem to work on my phone for some reason, that's all...

i try instructions from #1 post but it didnt work with terminal emulator or titanium backup...i dont have skill to do it over Android SDK...
so i try install maps for unrooted devices (maps 6.4.0 changepn...but now i have doubled maps,doubled navigation,doubled places,doubled latidute and it keeps crashing
...i know you think i'm not reading and just trolling but i'm not i really need some more instructions
Since you have a rooted phone and since you have successfully flashed a ROM, I'm assuming you know a lil bit about computers and zip files. Now, based on that assumption, I'd suggest ...
a) download maps6.4.0-ownhere-signed.apk from the 1st page (signed version).
b) Extract the contents of your rom to a folder ... let's say the folder name is "Sandvold"
c) goto \Sandvold\system\apps
d) delete maps.apk (or anything that looks like it)
e) copy the file you downloaded in step (a) above to this folder ... \Sandvold\system\apps
f) Get inside the folder \Sandvold and select all
g) Right click and zip all highlighted files to a file (name of your choice)
h) copy the newly created rom file to your SD card and FLASH!
No i don't think that..... Try titanium again to uninstall the original maps. If can not work then use root explorer to manually delete the maps file from your system. I recommend you complete a NANDROID backup first. Then try installing the ownwhere signed.apk
It usually works for me. Good luck.
Sent with Desire.
if only I could have that developer logic...that work just fine, thx
I was little bit suspicious with that method because there wasn't gmaps.apk or google.maps.apk
I guess sandvold include the whole gapps package, but it workt like you said

if that first method i try didn't work I would try yours but thx anyway
Still no turn arrows..
I upgraded to 6.4.0 and I still don't have these big turn arrows on top of the screen. Just long text and distance to next turn.
see image: hxxp://i.imgur.com/mmk9H.png
Tried unistalling and clear data. Even reinstalled my rom without luck. Anyone else had this problem and figured it out?

I had the same problem with my native language.
Try English as your phone's language and you will see the arrows.

This map is for the country that cant use navigation on google map. It has been hacked and can be used by any country now.
Installation for root:
1. In Titanium Backup, select Maps and make a backup.
2. Select Maps and wipe data, then uninstall.
3. Select Street View and wipe data, then uninstall.
4. Install Google Maps6.7.0-ownhere-signed.apk.
5. Go to market, and reinstall street view.(download it from the second post).
Or
1.Uninstall maps from Titanium Backup.
2.Install maps from the Market.
3.Uninstall it normally (not from Titanium).
4.Install the re-signed version.
or ADB
first uninstall Maps from /system/app
HTML:adb remount adb push /Google maps6.7.0-ownhere.apk /system/app
Note:
For those who get the "Login Failed" message Pull down the status bar and press all three triangles and give permission then closing maps.
If you don't get the three warning triangles
1. Install original maps from market.
2. Sign in and join latititude
3. Back up maps in titanium, app and data.
4. Wipe date and uninstall maps
5. Install resign version. DO NOT RUN, reboot right after installing.
6. After reboot, go to titanium and restore DATA only.
I'm not going to post any more links to ownhere-maps . After a lawyer representing google contacted me on G+ and then later call me and we had a little talk ,we came to the conclusion that I'm not going to spread anymore modified maps . I'm not going get on the wrong side off Google .. And I'm considering closing the thread .
Admin Edit: These Maps apk files have been removed due to a copyright infringement complaint from Google. Please do not post any more Google Maps apk's31How to get navigasion voice in your own language
1. Download Classic Text To Speech Engine from the marked.https://market.android.com/details?id=com.svox.classic&feature=search_result
2. After installation, open to select the language you want (USD 2.99) to download.
3. Go to Android Settings -> Voice Input & Output -> Text-to-Speech settings, activate SvoxClassic at the bottom of the screen, then select SvoxClassic as the Default Engine.
Notes:
- Google Navigation requires that the Text-to-Speech voice matches the phone language. You can change the phone language in Android Settings -> Language & keyboard -> Select language.
1) Download a working version of the hacked map, its corresponding original version and the latest map version.
2) Extract from all apks their classes.dex.
3) Disassemble the classes.dex (hack, original & new) using*baksmali . This will create a folder of disassembled files for each classes.dex, viz., hfolder, ofolder & nfolder respectively.
4) Use a diff tool such as meld (in ubuntu) to find the differences in hfolder & ofolder.
5) Port the diff (i.e., modified parts) in hfolder to nfolder. Please make sure that they are the same file when porting (i.e., most of the other codes should match).
6) If you realise that the hacked file does not corresponds to the new file (i.e., same file name or file does not exists in nfolder), look for some codes (in the hacked file) that can uniquely identify it and search in the folder, using tools such as grep or find.
7) Copy all files in brut folder to nfolder.
8) Edit the files in brut folder of nfolder such that the references (some function calls to the map classes) in them point to the correct classes/files in nfolder.
9) Once all modifications are ported, assemble it using*smali *which will create a dex file. Name it as classes.dex.
10) Replace the classes.dex of the new map apk with the newly assembled classes.dex.
11) Resign the apk.
