Does the Nexus S come with Google Maps 5 beta? - Nexus S Themes and Apps

The official website sure makes it seem that way.

I just updated my maps to 5.0 through the market as well.

Slightly OT.
How is the updates supposed to work? I have maps 4.7, but i can see 5.0 in the market. Aren't programs supposed to be auto updated, or atleast give me a notify?

The first time there's an update it will notify you and if you want it to automatically update ,you have to check the box to enable auto-updates.

Also if an update has new permissions, you will have to manually accept/install it.

The Market isn't fantastic at notifying you in a timely manner. Just view the "my downloads/apps" section, and it will be listed as ready to update.

All apps i downloaded my self are there, but not google maps, gmail and the others that where on the phone from the beginning... If I navigate to e.g. Google maps in market, the button at the bottom just says "Install".

The new Android Market will be rolling out in the coming weeks to Android 2.2 and higher phones around the world. You don’t need to do anything - the update is automatic on supported phones. If you’re in the U.S., you’ll also be able to download the Videos app, rent movies, and buy books once you receive the new Android Market.

[App] Lollipop Messaging App

Just download and install. First time you send a message with it, it will ask if you want to set as default. This has some nice improvements over stock.

I uninstalled it. The material design is nice but it bothered me that I had to keep the stock message app also. I had the stock app hidden with xposed GEL settings but it was still bothering me. I also uninstalled the Lollipop Gmail app and is now solely running Inbox for email. My fascination with Lollipop has come to an end. Lol

Unfortunately, as Caseyk621 mentioned above, the only way I was able to get the app not to FC was to leave the stock app in there. Maybe something to do with the ROM as it is a hit and miss for lollipop apps at this point and the ways to get the apps to work are different for everyone. As an example, I have not found a way to make the lollipop calendar app to work and I've tried every way imaginable. So, at this point I am over it, back to stability and functionality for me. The rest of the eye candy will come later. Inbox is pretty cool though and is now my daily driver. The new Play Music app is awesome and the new Google Now launcher ties everything together nicely.

Once u update to 5.1 this app will become available
Apk from VVM on 5.1
I pulled the Verizon visual voicemail apk from 5.1 if you want to try installing it. No guarantee it will work. Just figured I'd post it just in case someone is waiting to update to 5.1.
Thanks for this but I can't get it working on my non moto device... Very sad
