Yes..version 3.3 and attached screenshot.

Have had same problem with prior versions for at least last year.

Uncertain how to start new topic for Locus Store..sorry if incorrectly done.

Get error results. Attempted to download Canada topo (free), and TopOSM...results in unsuccessful.
"Unable to initialze target file"

Attempted to download Canada topo (free), and TopOSM...results in unsuccessful.
"Unable to initialze target file"

Any help?

I apologize if this is duplicate..but it seems my first reply didn't get posted.

Yes, the directory and file structure is as you indicate. It is populated with *.PNG files. But there is no America's TopOSM file.

Thanks for your assistance.

It just does not download when I tap "add".  Just acts like waiting  (circle spinning)
.
I have allowed it to continue for almost an hour and no download.

This has occurred (not everyday, but each time I attempted) over the past 3
months.

I just give up.. in fact none of the no charge maps down load. I was successful with one for pay (but covered by first download free)

Menion,
I have tried many times to download the  AmericasTopOSM map from the store.. With no success
Sorry if appears high jacking this thread.  but I have asked for assistance in the forum with zero response

Tried many multiple times over a week or so to download  topOSM from locus store.
After what appears a good connection , goes to message "waiting"..then fails.. (see screenshot).

I have good connection, gobs  of memory. .at a loss.

Thanks for help.

I think I got it.

I had setting for maps to go to sd card  (where my map files reside).
Changed to locus/maps on device and sample qorked.


Forgot can not write to sd card in locus.

Sorry for incon ience and use of time.

Which map?
Every map I have tried (satellite). For example.. Mapquest, Google, Bing, ESRI World.

Area of map:
Uncertain what information your requesting. E.g.  a 10 mile track in the state of Colorado in the United States. See attached screenshot (which will not download)

Zoom level:
Various..as seen on prior screenshot zoom 12 for example.

Where do you download map:
Download to phone storage, where Locus puts it (when successful)

Extra steps and parameters:
Do not understand what your asking for.

Thank you for assistance

When attempting to download a map (maps..plus sign..download option.(this screen)

I get multiple errors. (See screenshot).

In the past I have been successful downloading, but with past few upgrades, I have the result presented in screenshots.

Must be some setting incorrect.
Using Samsung Note4, marshmallow

After 3.8.0 update I no longer have an option for external themes in vector maps. From Main menu > settings>map advanced>Vector Maps> Map themes  I only have Internal themes option.  No longer is there external themes option or more option. I have researched the user manual with no help for external themes.

using Samsung Note4, v4.4.4 ( tho new version is prompting me continually to upgrade).

I suspect the problem lies in the directory structure.  But all worked fine in prior Locus Pro ver...just lost it on3.8 upgrade.

refer below to similar issue and some suggestions.  Although I still haven't had success either.

Thank you.

two days ago I submitted the following via the help desk...no response.  help please.



tried manually copy themes from sd card to internal. With all files now showing in internal locus/mapsVector/_themes AND still show as initializing during locus startup...unable to select custom theme.

Also, have confirmed "Theme of the maps checked to allow custom Vector map theme" is enabled.

As a note; the instructions above and in other help location just directs to transfer the location for /mapsVector folder...NOT then manually copy the /_ themes data.

I must be missing a step as others are not complaining of missing custom themes.

Thanks in advance for solution to this.

This is exciting stuff!

From the USGS website, I see (and downloaded ) my state data (Colorado).

However, not being a programmer nor very programming proficient..I am unsure of the manner to 1) change/add the instructions your provide and 2) how to add to the the locus files so as to select and use.

PM if you prefer.

Thanks for any assistance.
