Just about an hour ago my app started having issues using google maps when loading the Activity with a MapFragment. Have there been any changes or does anyone know why this might be happening all of a sudden? My App just stops with this error:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: length=1; index=12

Its a problem on google's backend.

You can try running the regular google maps app and it will also crash.

Because google's own maps app crashes, I'm sure google is on it and will be fixed on their end shortly.

Hello,
I have the same problem with my application. Tonight he throws me the same error.
I don't know what's going on, but Google Maps works ok.
Maybe someone knows something more?

Guys, as a work around (at least it works for me) try this code

[CODE lang="b4x" title="Google Map"]

private Sub ShowMap

Try

Dim Intent1 As Intent
Dim urlMap As String="https://www.google.com/maps/search/"
Dim su As StringUtils
Dim Address As String

Address=lblAddress.Text
Address=Address.Replace(CRLF," ")
Address=su.EncodeUrl(Address,"UTF-8")
urlMap=urlMap & Address

Intent1.Initialize(Intent1.ACTION_VIEW,urlMap)
Intent1.SetComponent("googlemaps")
StartActivity(Intent1)
Catch
Log("ShowMap " & LastException)
modFun.ShowError("ShowMap " & LastException)
End Try

End Sub
[/CODE]

Clearing the cache of my app did NOT work.
