New Google Maps voice for navigation is awful

[electricpete]

There is no setting in maps. The settings are normal system settings (see my post above for menu). If you're still having a problem, try disabling svoice

So Lollipop is here, and my high quality voice file dissapeared when I did a factory reset... and now I don't even see the option to download it. Oh well. I think I'll probably be using 'Nokia Here Maps' as my GPS more anyway, since it works off-line, it won't burn through my battery and my data plan like Google Maps do... So I'll hardly ever have to listen to the crappy Google voice now anyway.

Still, I hope they do enable/make available that high quality voice. It's 1000X better.
