This is really starting to be annoying. I hear 8130 users from everywhere reporting that their internal GPS is not working, no matter what. Mine is the same thing. The only way that it works is if I install a version of Gmaps for 8830 series, but then there is no zoom as there is no true QWERTY keyboard on the device. Clearly Google is messing something up. I have also heard that some people get the version 2.0.1 when then go to google.com/gmm and others get version 2.0.0.

I had at least one person tell me that their GPS did not work after downloading 2.0.0 but then that person re-downloaded the app from google.com/gmm couple of minutes later, and the version was 2.0.1 and the GPS worked.

(1) Does anyone even know the difference between 2.0.0 and 2.0.1?
(2) Does anyone have the proper link to *JAR* (not JAD, JAR) for Gmaps 2.0.1 for 8130 and/or 8830?
