Hi guys, I'm currently using Galaxy Note 2 and I love it. I want to upgrade to Note 3 but there's one big issue for me: The new Google Maps.

I travel a lot and the Google Maps is my bible. I saved locations and rename them. The problem with Google Maps 7 is that those places do not retain the names that I assigned to My Places. And as far as I know, the default Google Maps in Note 3 is already Google Maps 7.

Is there anyway that I can downgrade the Google Maps back to version 6? I can easily find the apk for Google Maps 6 but I have heard differing replies whether it can actually be properly installed or not.

Thank you very much.
 
Hi

If as i suspect Google maps 7 is installed as a stock app you won't be able to remove it to allow installation of v6 without rooting the phone. If you are happy to do that it can probably be done.

Roger
