I'm having Google Maps issues as well, but I'm still on the 4.2 OS. Data seems to be fine, but the new version of the maps seems to be buggy.

Try redownloading and reinstalling it. I have seen that Google Maps needs to be reloaded after an upgrade to 4.5

No issues here with Google maps 2.2.2 on O.S. 4.5 and I do not have BB Maps installed on my phone.

To OP, can you explain the problem in a little more detail? What error are you seeing?

cneyrey are you on BES? If so, there is probably a software configuration enabled on your device that is preventing.

Do you have access to BES?

This happened on my curve too and I added wap.voicestream.com to the APN and it was fine after that. Maybe this will work for you too.

Go to options>advanced options>tcp> apn= wap.voicestream.com

I'm having the same issue with 4.5.0.55 and taking a clean device with just google maps 2.2.3 gives me the same problem described above. Freezes after hitting allow (or deny) on question about allowing access to radio data.

Any other ideas?

It sounds like your "clean" device has an IT Policy on it. If your device is on a BES and you have what they call a software configuration setup on your BES account, you will have this issue with 4.5 and Google Maps. You either need to be removed from the software configuration on the BES or you need to remove the IT policy from the device. Removing the IT policy is only a viable option if you don't plan on connecting to the BES again.

I am the BES admin (although maybe not a very good one). Did some digging and found an old software config that was pushing DST updates to this device from 18 months ago. Deleted it and it seems to be working now. Not sure why this is a new problem with 4.5 as it was working fine with 4.2 for the past year.
