Google Maps for Samsung Wave and Bada download

hello friends.now  there is 3rd good news of this week. Google maps for bada has been launched.This version is compatible with Samsung wave s8500 , s8530 , wave 533 . During my test the application ran very smoothly.
bada-google-maps
The highlighting features of this version are-
    Navigation (Beta) Get free, turn-by-turn GPS navigation with voice guidance for driving or walking directions.
  •  Places with Hotpot Find nearby places with the Places icon. You can also rate the places to get personalized recommendations from users like you.
  •  3D Maps New! Explore the map in 3D. With two fingers, drag down to tilt and see 3D buildings where available; twist to rotate (on supported devices).
    However one flaw I noted was that it did not change orientation with screen. This although is a java version but it has been modified by well known Bada dev.- dery35rt to make it run smoothly in bada for wave series of phones.
You can download it here -

  8. Hey thanks a lot. Unfortunately I find GPS on my Samsung Wave 2 (s8530) very slow. Most of the time I am not even able to get a location through any software (Google Maps, Route 66, etc.) I am wondering why GPS location triangulation is not supported in Wave. My earlier non-GPS Nokia E63 was so much better in this regard that I never felt the need for GPS and could make do with fast triangulation in Google Maps.

  9. yes Far i huset, dr.ksetri , Akshay , this is a linitation of bada that you cant download zip files . to overcome it -
    1. download the file on your pc
    2. open the file on pc using winrar
    3. inside there are two files ( one jar ,other jad)
    4. copy these to your bada phone

    5. now browse file on your phone and open the jad file . this ill install the file..
    Hope this helps!

  12. Hello
    I am using Samsung Wave 8500 under Bada 1
    Google maps installs when I transfer the app by bluetooth. I find it in the games folder.

    When I launch google maps I always get the following message "Unknown error. Please Exit and Restart"

    I have tried to update the firmware but Kies Lite refuses to recognise the phone. Kies 2 for Mac also refuses to recognise the phone. Both list the phone as being suitable for upgrade using either system.

    Is there a serious problem within Samsung that they cannot keep basic promises.

    Since I upgraded to Google + the calander etc do not sync on the Samsung Wave.

  20. I have installed the application yesterday.
    It works quite well (as far as I can notice) to my surprise, as I understood that the last (latest) version can not be installed unless you have bada 2.0
    I have bada 1.0 so I used the cable, downloaded google maps 3 to my notebook and then transfered to the phone and installed it.
    Thank you for the link and blog.
    All the best to you all.

  21. To copy files to your wave 1 or 2 you must first change the usb settings on your phone to connect using data storage.

  25. Finally something that works! No thanks to Samsung I guess...
    The route66 software works fine but uses a lot of battery power and takes ages to load. This is an acceptable solution.
