A new version of Mobile GMaps is out, with a number of improvements:
- Nextel/Motorola iDEN support updated — positioning now defaults to assisted GPS, several problems were fixed.
- Motorola location API is now included in the main (generic) version of MGMaps, and it should work on Motorola E1000, A920 and others.
- The QJAE GPS API (Sprint) was updated to prefer assisted-GPS over standalone GPS. This sacrifices accuracy for quicker fixes and more stable GPS positioning.
- The “Browse” option in Settings/Map Browsing was updated, it now searches for a folder containing a cache.conf file and it no longer requires for the folder to be named MGMapsCache.
- Support for the OpenStreetMap OSMARender map layer was added. You can enable it in Settings/Map Types.
- Added option to rotate map by 180 degrees, key “7″ can be used to sequentially rotate the map.
- A scaled image is now displayed while zooming in (previously such an image was displayed only when zooming out).
- Added option to “fake” user-agent (Settings/Advanced) in order to make MGMaps work with some carriers and plans like O2 Germany’s WAP.
- Some fixes for the GPS, zoom, key shortcuts and other settings.
