Help with apps on Wildfire S and CM-11-20190617 (Android 4.4.4)

Search This thread
I now have a working 4.4.4 on my Wildfire S and I have set the default application install location to 2 (SDCard) and I downloaded the apk of:
com.google.android.apps.maps_V10.11.1.1011100030_Android-44.apk
I then installed from file manager and it all went well
When i opened the map app i get and error either google maps has stopped or that i need to reinstall it
Is it just not possible to run or is there another version or a fix available?
(It is a 32GB SanDisk MicroSD)
Whil I remember also BBC News opened but didn't seem to be able to get a connection - does this no longer work for 4.4.4 Android?

Hello, have you checked APK file if it has libs for ARMv6 architecture?

Doesn't look like it does - armv7 in the libs, have tried the version from spec-gapps-4.4.4-basic-v2.6 and various others to no avail, tried setting accuracy for gps only too (Sometimes fixes maps - it did on my 7.1.2 S3 Mini)

Older version 7.7 opens but requires update so that effectively doesn't work either

Is there another map app i can use that might work on armv6 and android 4.4.4 or a version that someone knows that would work?
