Getting tiles from Google tileservers directly is not very reliable as it is not supported and unwanted by Google.

Sometimes the URLs work, sometimes not. Perhaps your IP is blocked for downloading tiles directly.

So, no one can help me with this issue...

It still doesn't work for me.
I downloaded googlemaps.xml, copy paste from it code to maps.xml, gps.run loads correctly without errors but can't get tiles of google maps to load. Only Open street maps tiles are loaded correctly.
Can someone help me with this.
Thank you...

You cannot cut and paste from here the snippets because this is not correct XML (The & character is not a valid character in XML Attributes and must be escaped)

Download it from here: http://www.amberhome.de/files/googlemaps.xml add it to your maps.xml file and perhaps modify it.

Be aware that downloading map tiles this way is not really supported by google and if you download a larger amount of tiles they will block your IP for some days.

I get an error message when including the google-servers.

Error reading map sources definition file "\storagecard...\maps.xml"
message: NotSupportedException

With only including maps from outdooractive.com i get no error-message.

Where is the problem?

Google Earth

Hi@all!
Mit Google Maps klappt alles wunderbar.
Die Desktop Varinae vom PDA TleManager arbeitet auch
unermüdlich grössere Datenmengen wie ganz Kuba ab.
Nur bei Google Sat kommen keine files. N/A

Wer kann helfen?

OutdoorActive Frankreich

Hallo RunGPSler,
ich wohne an der Grenze zu Lothringen und viele meiner Touren führen mich nach Frankreich.
Gibt es auch OutdoorActive-Karten von diesem Land und wie lautet die URL?
Hat jemand schon welche heruntergeladen?

Gruß Dieter
