I am building a hybrid mobile app using the ionic framework utilizing the google maps javascript api with geolocation. I followed the sample code from their site and the app runs fine when i run on the browser but when i test on my android device, the map loads perfectly but the geolocation does not work at all. Any help/tips?
i things you used ngCordova Plugins
its plugins used for getting current location of device [lat,lng] and its latlng to display in your map.
thanks and good luck.

I want to use xamarin.forms maps offline with google maps.
I know how to do it in xamarin for android - using MapTypeNone, and loading the my own TileProvider.
Is there a way to do it also in xamarin.forms instead of using different code for android and IOS ?
You can use a Dependency service/Custom Renderer to separate that code, not sure if it is possible to use Google Maps but there are other options like:
https://components.xamarin.com/view/nutiteqmapssdk
and
iOS and Basic offline app
Hope this helps.
I have links that go to Google Maps, but now since Apple updated to their own service my iPhone goes to the Google Maps website. Is there a way in HTML to show the Apple Maps link, when it's iOS6, and show the Google Maps link for all other devices. I am using ASP.NET MVC.
The solution is even easier than that and won't require any conditional statements:
When clicked from an iOS6 device, links to
maps.apple.com/maps?q=cupertino are opened in Apple's native
mapping application.
But on other mobile devices and computers, it redirects to Google
Maps (at maps.google.com/maps?q=cupertino) instead.
So at this point, all you need to do is include the Apple Maps link and it should work as expected on non-iOS devices.
I mentioned this in a recent post that also touches on whether the same parameters can be used.
I'm creating mobile version of company site and I wonder if there is possible to make navigation snippet that will be part of page, opened with mobile browser such as WebKit or Safari (Android, Windows, iOS devices) and will display route from current to fixed place (compay office)?
Something like navigation. All with jquery mobile + Google Maps API and...? maybe is something else needed?
Some advises?
well you can use the GOOGLE MAPS API V3. check the Google Code Playground.
You can also check Docs APIV3
You'll also need to make use of Google Maps Direction Service
You can get your current location using html5 directly. Geolocation in HTML5.
That should definitely work with jQuery Mobile and the Google Maps API. It has been done before by other users. A great place to look for more information on using the two together is the jQuery Mobile forum - http://forum.jquery.com/jquery-mobile
I have to let user know their current location (street location) with Google Map, on my Website which will be accessing via Mobile Phones / Mobile Devices. How can it be done?
Note: Direct via Website. No native App will be using.
For starters, this will only work on a mobile phone that supports W3C Geo API. You can find that list on quirksmode.org.
Given a mobile phone that supports this, follow the example in the Google Maps API docs where you use the GeoLocation API to get your longitude/latutide, and then use the standard Google Maps API to center a map on screen at this location.
I went through google maps website.I got code form there for Google map Api.But this is not working on my mobile.I think javascript is not working.What is exact way to integrate google map for mobile browser ?
Thanks
An example using PhoneGap and jQuery Mobile is here
Today, almost mid-end to high-end mobile web browser support javascript. I think you don`t need to afraid to implement google api on it. But there is an alternatve way using google static map, it showing image and use no javascript. you can try it out here
