The whole deal with Google Maps offline was the ability to pre-download/cache an area's maps and then be able to use it even one didn't have internet or mobile network/connectivity later on in that place. I get that. So, Directions Everywhere ? On Android ? Hello World ? Google Maps says that "If you have GPS on the device, the blue dot will show your location so you?ll know where you are."
My question is, will GPS on my VZW Galaxy Nexus work even when I don't have mobile network connectivity? i.e. can I realistically download/cache London, UK's map offline while I am here in the US and on the VZW network, fly across the puddle, switch on my phone, put it on "no data when roaming" mode and use Google Maps??
The reason I ask is that when I'm not connected to a wifi or the VZW network here in the US, GPS does not connect. I keep getting the "unable to determine location" message.
What is the trick?
