Street View

WM version of Google Maps did not have “Street View” feature like the one that is going to come out on the android ( video here ). But with the following hack we can get some of the cool features on Street view on Windows Mobile devices. Some limitations are no GPS support or My Location.

If you have a Java Midlet manager installed on your device you can skip this step, or else Install GC Opera Pack 1.2.2 ( this will install Esmertec Jbed 20080428.2.1 and Opera Mini 4.1 )
Download “KDKobes Google Maps Street View” place it in \My Documents

Open Esmertec Java client and it should find the jar file. Install and you should be ready to start your Google Maps “Street View” experience.

I'm having the same problem with the launching on HTC 6800.

Have a java midlet manager, cannot install the one you supplied.

I will see if there are any updates for it, but haven't see that issue when i tried it ( dont have it installed now so cant say 4 sure )

I am assuming you have installed Esmertec Jbed

Looks like mine keeps resetting back to the option to "launch" Google Maps. When you click "Launch" it tries to load the page where you can Decline/Agree, but keeps kicking back to the previous screen where you can launch the app.

Using HTC Touch/Vogue. Any ideas?
