Same issue for me. Running Open Sensation. Updated a couple days ago, haven't tried using Maps app until today and it would reboot my phone after about 30 seconds of use. Sucked cause I was trying to get somewhere, too :-\

I want to confirm that the method of uninstalling the maps app with a root uninstaller, even if your maps app isn't a system app, works. Just get rid of it and then reinstall it directly from Google Play, updated and all, and it will work. At least it did for me.

I want to confirm that it did not work for me [HTC Holiday/Vivid - Miui 2.7.27]... fully removed and confirmed no user or system app existed for maps. re-install from market, and on first open got reboot.

Elegancia Blitz 2.7 and it keeps crashing too. Not just maps, but the launcher restarts, annoying. Hopefully an update to fix the issues comes out soon.

Google Maps 6.10.0 causing phone restarts

Hi All,

after today's update of Google Maps to version 6.10.0 I'm facing lot of restarts when using of this great and essential application. Also found that other people has the same and all has been using it on HTC Sensation.

Any solution already found ?

Thx

I too am having this issue on my HTC sensation running CM9 stable. I thought this was going to be an issue with the rom but hopefully not!

Rebooting only occurs when using navigation. General browsing of the map is OK.

One issue though is that Google maps never finds my location - does anyone else have this issue? Its weird because navigation works fine (for about a minute and then reboots!)

Rolling back to 6.9.2 works. For those who don't have it, here it is - http://goo.gl/4p2O9

Spread that link, I know there's more of us that need it.
Cool, I reverted back but dont understand why it keeps goin back to the bad update. In the play store its not checked off the update automatically. I use my nav daily and can't now....
