Nokia GPS (Nokia Maps)

I had a Nokia N95, and now I have the Nokia 5800, and they both have the Nokia Maps on them, but I do not understand how to use it! Do we need anything? How is it used? Any help will be great!
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
nungon94.

The 5800 has two connections so to speak for the Maps .
One is the standard GPS =No Charge .
Two is the Assisted  A-GPS that connects via your phone networks internet service  for better triangulation/location
 This is charged at whatever rate your  network provider charges  .
Recommendation with a new 5800 is to switch maps on and for the first satellite location also use A-GPS for a better first fix .
I have Nokia maps   Google maps  both no charge with A-GPS switched off .
However if i want Google to show  aerial view then it needs the internet connection .
Likewise my Trapster speed camera software requires internet connection .
I am with Virgin Mobile in the UK on PAYG and Internet charges are 30p a day up to 25MB usage . Check your providers charges on your package .

  • Nokia N96 restarts while using Gps, Google Maps an...

    Hi guys, I've got this problem with my n96. When I try to use Nokia maps or Google maps, it restarts automatically. Last month I updated the firmware to 30.033. It was working fine before update, I had no problem with nokia and google maps, but after that update to firmware it randomly restarts. Any help would be highly appreciated.

    The problem of phones restarting following a firmware update can usually be resolved by resetting the phone.
    Always remember to backup your phone before performing resets as your data may be lost.
    First try  this,
    *#7370# - Reformat your phone
    If it doesn't work then try this.
    Then try the "3 finger deep reset". With the phone powered off, depress and hold these three keys simultaneously "*" "3" "green phone" and then power on phone using the on/off button whilst keeping all four keys depressed until you hear start-up tone.
    This should ONLY be done if the device doesn't power up normally anymore and it wipes everything in the Phone memory that is not part of the ROM.

  • Nokia 5630 XM Maps Updater Error Cannot get enough...

    Hi experts,
    I have unsolved problem until now. I have Nokia 5630 (buy in Czech Republic), I updated to lastest firmware 012.020 and after that I can´t connected with Nokia maps updater (it shows the announcement like topic - see attached file). I try hard to reset and many, many things but without positive results. Is it this problem solvable?I want to use Nokia maps and I don´t. I want to buy Nokia GPS modul but it is useless in this time. It must be any solution from Nokia company.
    Thank you for your solution and I hope in any advices

  • Nokia gps module

    I ask about nokia gps bluetooth module, is it avaliable in egypt yet?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If it is now legal to import and sell GPS receivers in Egypt, then local retailers/distributors should be able to order them from Nokia and resell them there.
    Ask local resellers if they've ordered any.
    Note also that you can also use other manufacturer's Bluetooth GPS receivers with Nokia phones.
    The only one to avoid (unless they've change their practice) is NAVMAN. It used to be problematic, because it used a text string for the Bluetooth pairing code, and Nokia phones only supports digits, so you could never pair a NAVMAN Bluetooth receiver with a Nokia phone. Otherwise, I'm sure it works just as well as any other Bluetooth GPS receiver.

    Nokia Drive+Beta maps, don't know that East Street in Bristol UK, is pedestrianised, until Dean Street junction
    Bing maps and Google maps know this - do a search.
    Please could Nokia maps be updated to reflect - Drive+ Beta keeps routing me down East Street
    Thanks guys

    Also David, it seems like you know of this particular traffic arrangement. Wouldn't it just be simpler to use that knowledge? I have a hard time using navigation in the city in which I live; I tend to actually know directions and routes better than it. But that, of course, is just me. All the best to you, mate!

  • Nokia N79 and MAPS 3.0

    Hi everybody,
    I have a question about upload new version of nokia Maps 3.0 on my moblie Nokia N79.
    When I download Map Loader version for my moblie, it starts, connects to internet, founds moblie device, than writes unexpected error end ends. I try to reinstall whole mobile from OVI, device is NOT HACKED !, everything is original. What should I do ? Thanks for any idea. 

    Nokia has changed map data providers to Navteq from Teleatlas for Europe. While this has improved mapping for countries like Ireland, I believe it has made things worse in most Eastern European countries. I expect Navteq will be improving their mapping of Eastern Europe in due course but I can't tell you when, so if you need something to use immediately then it may be best to get something else.

    I'm on my iPad, so I don't know if this is the page with an actual download. I don't see a button, but assume that is because I  am on an iPad. It is in the DL section of Apple downloads.

  • Latest Nokia Messaging (Nokia Email) can't silence...

    This latest Nokia Messaging (Nokia Email) push email client has broken something that worked in last release. I don't know if other people are getting the same issue. But I am unable to silence the notifications alerts for new emails. Whether my phone is already locked or not or forced lock or unlock at the time, touching the homscreen doesn't disarm the mp3 which carrys on playing for 3.XX mins etc... even if I open email from the homescreen widget to run the program.
    Computers must be male. As soon as you commit to one you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have obtained a better model. In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on. Big power surges knock them out for the rest of the day.

    Same here using a 5800.
    Logged into the Email website and my trial has expired. I contacted my operator (Orange UK) and they offer a push email service for £5 a month but all it does is send you an MMS with your email (doesn't even support HTML) which is rubbish. I was expecting it to use the Nokia Messaging app.
    I'm getting so frustrated with Nokia lately. While people are kicking and screaming on the forums asking for help, they're handing out silly balloons in London to annoy HTC.

  • Nokia 6300,Nokia 6234 & Nokia 6233.

    Haiy guyz my name is Muhammad plz.. help me can any i who tell me that is Nokia 6300 suppourts 3GP Videos & 1 more hng my friendz told me tha tNokia 6300 is not gud regarding battery during talk contineoulsy getting hot & also due to its stainless steel so tell me wht shoul I do &also tell me wht is the difference between Nokia 6233 & Nokia 6234.Tell me also which Nokia is best Nokia 6233,Nokia 6234 or Nokia 6300.
    I m waiting 4 ur reply plz.. help me.
    Thanks & Regards.
    Muhammad

    The 6233 & 6234 have the following advantages over the 6300
    *Stereo speakers
    *3G Support
    *VGA Video recording
    So they are the preffered device to use. If possible get a 6233 as the 6234 is a Vodafone branded 6233 and they tend to stuff up phones when they clog it up with their firmware.
    So your answer is 6233

  • How do I use GPS and Maps on my new Nokia N95?

    Hi everyone.
    Apologies if my questions seem very stupid
    I have read my manuals but don't understand how to use the GPS or to use maps. (FYI - I live in Australia).
    -When I go to the menu, and click onto Maps, it loads up a picture of the world but nothing happens. There is a little wavey line thing in the top right corner that moves - does this mean it is searching for a position?
    -Someone said everyone needs to make sure their GPS Receiver is turned on - what does this mean?
    -Is there anything I need to download before I can use maps or GPS?
    -Am I just supposed to go outside after clicking on maps, and wait for it to find a position?
    -Do I need to download anything?
    Thanks everyone. I am just so confused about how this actually works and can't seem to find any basic instructions or information.
    Thanks, Doc

    Hi doc18
    Firstly if you are using v12.0.013 software on your N95 it is a lot quicker to obtain fix with A-GPS feature, although an active connection via WLAN or Network is needed. The symbol for this is a bit like two curtailed arrowheads at top right of screen.
    There is an updated version of Nokia Maps 1.0 available:
    http://europe.nokia.com/A4509291
    Go outside away from buildings and tress with clear view of sky. Open slider and hold phone at 45degrees, don't cover "#" key as GPS antenna beneath it. Low cloud or rain will make satellite acquisition a lot longer.
    If you go to Menu > Tools > GPS data > (searching for + calculating data) > Position > Options > Satellite status
    This shows any number of satellites up to five - empty rectangle = not locked on - black filled rectangle = signal acquired; you need a minimum of 3 solid bars for lock-on and triangulation to work!
    If you return to using Nokia Maps application the "red cross" disappears off satellite icon bottom right of screen when locked on.

  • O/s map with Nokia GPS

    Hi
    Could anyone please let me know if it is possible to use the coordinates off a UK Ordanance Survey map and use them to put a fix in to the Nokia N95 GPS. I can't make any correlation between the numbers, or put another way 'my gps position' dosn't seem to match any numbers on the map grid ?
    Many thanks
    Steve

    Steve,
    You can use this app to convert all the different lat long styles as well as lat long to OS standards.
    http://utmdata.blogspot.com/
    The UTM data app is pretty in depth.
    Also the lat long written on the edge of every OS map is great for most devices... except Nokia (by default) as it uses decimal lat long... and there is no way to change it.
    Using an app like UTM data will at least allow you to get the right lat long format you need and then translate that to the paper map or via the application. In fact (just looked) it gives you your current OSGB position :-)
    hope this helps.... not explained very well but try the app out its free.

  • N96 GPS & Nokia Maps

    Well first of all u will have to find out whether the country u live in is available in nokia maps. If its available u have to install the map to the phone. If u use the phones in-built GPS system u will not b charged.

  • GPS nokia 5800 Xpressmusic

    Hi, I'm from Romania and I want to use GPS for free but i can't.I don't lnow how work.Where is the download for Gps for my Nokia,how to install?Thanks! I have already installed Maps but don't work,i can't see the maps.

    Hi AdyTza
    Latest version of OVI Maps available here:http://maps.nokia.com/services-and-apps/ovi-maps/f​ree-downloads#/nokia-5800-xpressmusic/
    You need to download regional maps to your device with OVI Suite, microSD needed in 5800 and OVI Maps run once with memory card in place.
    You don't need a network connection for OVI Maps application to work but the Assisted GPS feature does require network connection for rapid positional acquisition, found in "Location" application.

  • The reason, why NOKIA made ovi maps free ? read th...

    Helsinki - Nokia made a breakthrough by offering maps and GPS navigation service is completely free for users smartphone. Step the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer makes the GPS industry players stressed. Google is also subject to receive the effects.
    "We are offering navigation for cars and pedestrians in 74 countries in 46 languages. Ovi Maps truly free," Jukka Husio said, director of marketing services Nokia in Helsinki, as quoted by the AFP detikINET on Friday (22/1/2010) . The new version's Ovi Maps can be downloaded at the Nokia website is, to provide full navigation features like voice guidance for driving, 180 state map, directions and content from leading partners such as Lonely Planet and Time Out. All are available without charge in the handset Nokia N97 mini, N97, 5800, E72, X6, E55, E52, 6730 Classic, 6710 Navigator and 5320.
    Navigation industry players such as Tom Tom and Garmin affected by this initiative is estimated to Nokia's. And iSupply's prediction that the GPS market is likely to fall. Nokia also seemed to challenge Google is actively developing the navigation for free for Android handsets, such as the Motorola Droid.
    For Nokia itself, of course, the move to improve its position in the global smartphone market. Some time later, Nokia is losing market share captured the iPhone and BlackBerry.
    "I think Nokia's intention they can stop the decline in the smartphone market with that step. This service is useful and may attract enthusiasts because it become free. But I do not know if will be enough to stop the decline in market share of Nokia," said analyst Michael Schroeder of the FIM. (Fyk / Faw)

(Could it be that this automatically loads software for the S60 handset?).
    On first using OVI Suite you do have to accept any prompts to accept synchronisation software onto device.
    Irrespective of whether you can't get OVI Suite or Nokia Maploader to work you can always download Europe.zip using links in this post by ovikovi here and then decompress:

    That said it is a lot easier to overwrite E:\Cities\diskcache folders  0 - 9 and a - f using Windows PC as a bit more convoluted if using Mac although requires use of "Terminal" to merge folders.
