Workaround - open a BBM conversation. Have someone send you their location. You can launch BBM from their. Yes PIA cause you have to have that link so to speak which means leaving the convo.

I can get the maps of an area I am going to ahead of time and then do not need Cell service to use them.

Example: I was going to Europe for a week. Did not want to pay Roaming/International Data charges, and did not need the Phone service. I zoomed into all the areas I was going to be, and BBmaps downloaded all those maps. The maps were then available with the Radio, Wifi, etc turned OFF.
