If they still show as grey squares and especially if they are all the same size, then it is a download problem indeed. Something somewhere is blocking your maps downloads. Do you live in Syria, Iraq or one of other "restricted" countries?
But if he can see the maps when he is online, then this has nothing to do with his country potentially blocking downloads. He just has to turn on the setting to save the tiles locally as they are downloaded during use.

Or maybe your point is that he is indeed in a blocked country, and that he must have downloaded these mapfiles some other way. In that case, good thinking. It hadn't dawned on me some countries would care about that stuff.
