@Calibos, I did exactly what you did, download the whole of Europe. After multiple resumes it gets stuck exactly at the point where that happens for you too: France, Italy, UK. But I see that it still tries to continue after resuming the download like I mentioned before. Ultimately, after some manual resumes again, also these three countries get downloaded. So I think I was correct in the assumption that these 3 countries are the most prone to the problem because those are the three biggest downloads.
So, I am not saying it works okay, I am just saying that it works like it did before. The best way to handle this (for now) is to set your screen time-out (standbye time) to a long time, and keep the app in focus until it is ready. Yes, the dirty way I am afraid.
