Description

Hello there,

I am quite unsure if I missed something obvious, but after installing the flashable zip (latest release, following the wiki instructions), the situation didn't really change for good on my phone.
The three (unfortunately for me quite essential) apps that I know to rely on the maps api v1, at least in former attempts to get rid of google services, are either still not installable/recoverable (HVV and Stadtrad Hamburg) or not showing proper replacements of a map view (Öffi 8.99.1-google).
In the case of Öffi, my S3 rather shows a window asking which app should be used to open the location (only option is opening osmand for me).

Can someone point me in the right direction? Or rather help me to make this a proper error report, if it ain't?

Thank you and best regards,
Nix

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported behavior on the S3 using the latest flashable zip and the listed HVV, Stadtrad Hamburg, and Öffi versions. Determine whether Maps API v1 is installed and whether these apps can install and display map views; a useful result would be a reproducible error report or confirmed compatibility limitation.
