Fatal bug in all versions after 2.2.0 of GoogleMaps SDK for iOS - google-maps-sdk-ios

I created an issue half a year ago, but nothing has happened.
One of our apps has a foreign letter in its name (because it's a local norwegian app).
If I have Google Maps SDK for iOS installed with version 2.3.0 or later, the app instantly crashes when opening a map. The SDK is currently at 2.7.0, which still has the same issue.
I can only use 2.2.0 or earlier when I have a foreign letter in the product name.
If any of you reading this are using Google Maps for iOS, can you try adding the letter Ø to your product name, and see if the app crashes when showing an app?
What should I do? I've been stuck on 2.2.0 for a looong time, and the google support team won't answer me..

Published Chrome Packaged App

I created a Chrome Packaged App and already published it. The status is already published, but when I go to the Chrome Webstore and search for my app, I can't see it. What am I missing?
Some points to check on your published App:
Your app or extension will take few minutes to several hours appear in search result.
Republish your app
App indexing to web store takes time/ couple of days
if all else fails, file a report to Chromium Support
Here is the Google Group regarding Chromium for additional information and you can post the error that you experience there.

Installation for Today extension

I am playing with IOS 8 new features : Today extension. But many times I have to install the main app two times to get new Widgets from my app to display in IOS Today. Does it happen for everyone ? or it just my mistake in configuration.
Thanks,
I think it's safe to say that it's a bug. It has been happening to me all the time with Xcode6b7 and iOS8b5. I found out that I could make the extension appear by pressing 'edit' and removing another extension (such as tomorrow or calendar).
I've got the same issues when I'm trying to update my widget.
Even when I installed my app via the TestFlight app, I had to install it twice to see the updated widget.
It's surely a bug which isn't even fixed in the current Xcode Beta, which I'm using since the release.
But you shouldn't worry whether your updated widget will be installed when the users are updating it via the App Store. When I tried updating my widgets via the App Store, I didn't get any problems.

Google Maps Android API v2 - Google Play Store is missing

In the newly published version of my app that is using Google Maps Android API V2, I've implemented all the things suggested by the developer guides to ensure the user has GooglePlayServices installed, and it has been working well on all the devices I own and the several hundred people that have updated to the new version of the app so far.
Today I received a bug report via acra with a strange error. This is happening on the following line of code, after setupMapIfNeeded() has completed:
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
Logcat reports:
W/GooglePlayServicesUtil(10401): Google Play Store is missing.
Shouldn't the call to GooglePlayServicesUtil.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable() also ensure that the Play Store is installed? That seems like a huge oversight on Google's part if it doesn't.
Any help is appreciated.
In case someone came here by accident or was just wondering why it was not working...
This could happen when user had old Android Market installed, which was replaced by Google Play Store.

Google Geolocation API without Google Gears?

Is there a possible way to use Google Geolocation API without Google Gears???
The reason being:
1. I want to user to enjoy the function of My Location without having to install installer especially when the page has potential problem of downloading the Gears installer.
When I was trying to install Google Gears from GOOGLE CHROME, it shows me the following error on the page of http://gears.google.com/
"Gears for Windows
Your browser is not supported.
Please check the list of supported browsers below." <---Google Chrome version 14.0.794.0 which is quite latest dated 23rd June 2011
Here is my another question, how it it is possible that Google Chrome itself couldn't support their own website??? This is ridiculous. I can even download the installer with IE 8 compared to Google Chrome version 14.0.794.0
Use the W3C Geolocation API.
Gears is being discontinued by Google in favour of HTML5 so I suspect that's why they don't automatically include it with Chrome.
