C6 Ovi Maps/Navi works, connecting to Nokia Accoun...

Greetings,
The location sharing feature seems really cool and I'd like to use it with my new Nokia C6. Ovi Maps and navigation works fine for me, however it will not login my Nokia Account. That whole menu is quite buggy actually. It does not "forget my account" either, but if I click it then restart my Nokia, I can re-add my login details... then it attempts to login, but nothing happens. I left my phone to try and login all night, in the morning it still said "Connecting to Nokia Accounts.." and if I cancel it, i will have to click "forget account" and reboot nokia again to make it reappear. Several attempts didn't work though.
I've updated to both latest Symbian version and Ovi Maps.
Is there another Nokia Approved App that would let me share my location? (as often and automatic as possible)
Thanks in Advance

I re-installed the phone's firmware and this has fixed the bug!

Ovi map not working in Nokia E63

I have tried to install OVI maps in my Nokia E63 phone, but it is showing as phone is not compatible for the same. Why maps is not compatible for E63 but is working for E55 or other old models. Can anyone tell me the solution so that i can also use navigation service in my phone as i have to travel regularly?

@meetkalsen10
Welcome to the forum!
Are you trying to install this version?
http://static.s2g.gate5.de/nokiamaps-client/nokia_maps_3.01_09wk44_b01_s60_3.1_lm_rom.sis
As E63 has no embedded GPS it would need Bluetooth GPS to act as navigator as network GPS is not accurate enough for this purpose.

Ovi Maps won't open in Nokia 700

I bought Nokia 700 2 months ago and I have been using Ovi Maps perfectly until last week, when after plugging my device in to my laptop I got a message that I should update the Maps application. I followed the instructions but there was not enough disc space, so the installation stopped. I unplugged the device and made some space, then plugged the device again and performed the update.
After that, I can use the navigation application as well as the check-in application normally, but the Maps won't open from the icon. I tried reinstalling software, reinstalling the maps, nothing. I cannot find the Ovi Maps version as the application does not appear in the Application Manager. I open the Maps settings, I can see the maps I have installed, but no info on the version.
Can anyone help?
Many thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

OK, I think I solved the problem.
I had to open Ovi Store and download an update of the Ovi Maps (v3.09). It took some time but it now works fine. I couldn't find this update elsewhere, only through the Ovi store.
I hope this hels you as well.

Ovi maps doesn't accept my Nokia account user name...

It was necessary to do an *#7370# reset on my phone, every things is fine now, except the point that I can't log on to Ovi from the maps application to get my maps favourites back to the phone.
Maps doesn't accepts my user name anymore. I got an error massage "no special characters allowed", but I have dots in my user name.
I don’t have any problems with logging on to other Ovi services either they are PC based nor from my mobile.
Creating a new account doesn't bring me back my maps favourites, therefore it's no solution for my problem.
I tried to install an older maps version, but have sis files for version 3.03 and 3.04 only and both versions doesn’t allow my to log in to Ovi.
Does anybody has an idea what to do?
Thanks for help in advance!

Why don't you contact Nokia using the 'CONTACT US' tab at the top ??
Have tried e-mailing support @ Ovi reply was "go to accounts>Nokia account>sign in" which is what I'd explained wasn't working. Called the Nokia help line & told to delete maps & reinstall which is what I'd tried previously, tried again but still doesn't work.
Navigation actually works with data download but still doesn't log in to enable sync. I still suspect it's something to do with a setting in the active sync profile.
So I'm waiting for 1. Ovi help to reply to second e-mail and 2. the call centre to reopen Monday

Ovi Maps v3.06 (Betalabs) on Nokia N8, problem wit...

Hi,
I encounter a problem with the "checkin" on Ovi Maps v3.06 from the Betalabs. It use to function perfectly untill a few days ago i always have the message "Network problem, please try again later" each time i try to checkin. Fact is that there is no problem with my network, all other function and apps are working just fine on my N8.
I completly reinstalled Ovi Maps 3.06, still the same problem. Restarting the phone doesn't help eather.
Anyone with the same problem? Or any advice?
Thx
N8-Wizard !!! Click the white star if you are happy with my help !!!

The first I would try is to uninstall and see if it that stops the restarting. If it does try reinstalling Ovi Maps v3.06 again and see f it recurs. Don't forget to follow the betalabs instructions and download new map data after the install.

Ovi Maps 3.04: voice problem (Nokia X6)

I bought a Nokia X6 yesterday and I upgraded everything. So I have the latest Ovi Maps (v3.04) but there is no voice during drive or walk. I've deleted the 'cities' folder and the 'qf' file, then I've downloaded maps and some languages. I tried the navigation with each language that I've downloaded, but there isn't any voice.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

First check to ensure that you have a voice selected. To do this, when in Maps, click on Spanner>Navigation>Drive Guidance. You will now see a list of voices. The ones with a little phone icon to the left are the ones already installed on your phone. Make sure you have one of them selected. Note there is a different voice setting for drive and walk.
Second thing to check is the navigation volume. After you start navigation, use the the volume up toggle.

Ovi store not working on my nokia E7-00

i bought a new nokia E7-00 but the problem is my ovi store is not working.its written could not connect or service not available...plz help me what to do..m from pakistan. thanks

Hi bouzrib
Thank you for posting and welcome to Nokia Support Discussions!
1. Make sure that the phone runs the latest software version. You can use Nokia Suite to check if there's software update available for your phone, refer to this link: http://www.nokia.com/global/support/software-update/belle-asha-symbian-software-update/
2. Check the network quality. If the connection is poor the Store application or downloading applications may not work correctly.
Try to use alternate connection types such as WLAN, 3G or GPRS/EDGE. If there is still issues with network coverage, you must contact the network operator for assistance.
3. Clear the cached memory on the phone
Go to the device Menu
Select Web
Choose Options -> choose Settings
Click on Privacy data
Choose Clear Privacy data -> Choose Cache.
4. Uninstall and reinstall your Nokia Store application. for Symbian^3 devices can be downloaded also from http://lr.ovi.mobi/store/new-symbian-3 directly to phone or download the package to your PC and install it via Nokia Suite.

If Nokia/Ovi Maps won't startup

This problem is usually caused by corrupt map data.
To fix this issue, you first have to delete the current map data. Using File Manager, delete the "Cities" folder on your memory card/mass storage.
Then start up the Nokia Maps application and download a few kb of map data so that it recreates the folder and file structure required for the map data.
Finally, reinstall your map data and voices to the phone using Ovi Suite or in the case of the latest Betalabs V3.06, using the Update function direcly from the phone.
This solution has been known to work with V3 when it too fails to start. With V3, Both the "Cities" folder and the "qf" file need to be deleted. The remaining procedure is as V2 above.

Hi thakaran
If it wasn't for the loss of data I would suggest that you carry out a "hard reset" with device off hold down green, red and camera keys while pressing power button until Nokia "shaking hands" appears which will make your phone revert to out-of-the-box condition. This will revert to OVI Maps version pre-installed in phone firmware, you may need to delete E:\cities + .qf file from memory card. You could always download OVI Maps update directly:http://nds1.nokia.com/phones/files/software/maps_i nstaller_3.04_10wk17_b07_s60_5.0.Nocs.sis

N97:Ovi Maps crashes after a few seconds

On N97 I had Ovi maps working like a breeze for some weeks now. All of a sudden I see this behaviour. Open Ovi Maps, see the main page, click on My Location the map appears a message about connecting might cost you something and the Ovi Maps disappears.
What should I do the get Ovi Maps working againg. Oh, btw Internet works just fine.

The original maps app that came with the phone will always be there (like music player or photo viewer or web browser) Maps 3.04 works fine on my N97. Best way to install is to remove (as you said you did) all Nokia/Ovi maps from Installed Applications, then download Ovi Maps 3.04 Beta from Nokia Beta Labs. Then use Nokia Maps Loader on PC to first remove old maps, followed by downloading and installing the map data for your region onto the phone (the stuff the Maps app uses to find where you are and to navigate) to avoid having to download 'on the fly', this speeds everything up and avoids data usage. Maps should then work fine ! Well it works for me !!
Good Luck

[INFO TIPS] How to survive with Ovi Maps 3.0 insta...

Quick info tips. I wanna made this post earlier but I was on few days trip so didn't have a chance... but it's good coz I was tested GPS in real touristic environment.
I'm from Europe so I don't know how all links posted below will be works for people outside Europe.
My hardware: E63 with latest firmware + external GPS module LD-4W
Everything what we do here, we do with phone connected to the PC via USB cable in PC Suite mode and with fully battery charged.
If you have Maps 2.0, everything works well for you and you payed for any of licences - better stay with that version and don't touch Ovi Maps 3.0. Waste of time and nerves.
1. Please make phone data backup in PC Suite. Please make data backup of your memory card.
2. Check if you have firmware upgrade for your phone (click on some icon in PC Suite). But if you have cracked Symbian and you using cracked software better stay away from firmware upgrade. There's new cracking method for newest firmwares, ask Google. I don't use it, I'm clean. If you have new firmware - update the phone.
3. Download MapLoader - http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/download-maps/map-loader Do fresh install or update old MapLoader
4. Bluetooth MUST BE turn in phone. Why? Ask Nokia. -_- Just kidding but unfortunately it's not funny. Without Bluetooth Ovi Maps 3.0 installed in next step (6.) is crazy as hell. Application is completly unusable, skipping, switching... one big hell on the screen. I don't know how it looks like in phones with build in GPS module.
5. Download Ovi Maps 3.0 - http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/download-maps and update with this installer old Maps 2.0 in the phone.
6. Run Ovi Maps 3.0 and allow to download via Internet connection in your phone (wifi, gsm, 3g) some portion of initial data - 300 or 400kB - something like that, up to 1MB maximum then disconnect from Internet. It's needed to save some file (I don't remember name) and make structure of catalogues on memory card.
7. Leave Ovi Maps 3.0 and run MapLoader. This application is one big pain in **bleep**. Sometimes doesn't see your phone, sometimes doesn't recognize correctly your memory card size (when you are finished downloading your map/s data that stupid soft can say to you "you don't have" or something like that)... horrible! If something goes wrong - try restart your PC and phone then connect again via USB cable - still in PC Suite mode.
8. When luckily you have maps on your phone, try to pair your phone with your GPS module via Bluetooth or turn on build in module in other models (I think it works like that?).
9. When you will be look out for licence for walk navigation... you cannot find it. You can see only your region name (in my case it was Europe) and you have an option to buy... licenses for drivers. ROTFL! Licence for walk navigation is "hidden option". You must go here - http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/product-support/maps-support/how-to/how-to--use-map... - it's mini FAQ how to obtain it.
What I see, there's NO MORE free trial licenses in Maps v3.0 You must pay from day one. I buyed that licence for walk navigation for 10,12E (10 euro 12 euro cents) and it's not time restricted - looks like lifetime, ofc for the phone that you use (I think). Other licenses (for drivers) are time restricted (30 days and up as I remember).
Everything works fine for me. I was over 220km away from my hometown in awesome town Wrocław and Ovi Maps 3.0 helps me A LOT with navigation and searching for monuments in this town.

NOKIA IN USE: N8

Ad. 1) "...Please make data backup of your memory card."
Because maybe you must be format memory card for proper maps installation (instead upgrade from Ovi Maps 3.0 installation level old installed maps from v2.0).

Ovi Maps does not launch anymore on my 5800 Xpress...

I have the latest ovi maps for my nokia 5800 (3.06, and also the latest firmware of the 5800), and everything was working fine until yesterday when I click the Map icon, the application is not launching... I did not install anything new, it just does not want to launch the application (no error message, just like i did not press the icon). I had the same issue couple of weeks ago when suddenly the ovi maps stopped working (i had to reset my phone and reinstall everything), and today it's the same all over again...
Do you have any idea how to fix this? (i have around 40Mo left in my phone memory, so there should not be any memory problem i guess....)
Thanks!

@XanderVDB
Presumably you have Ovi Maps v3.06 (688) installed http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/global/phones/software/ ovi_maps_installer_3.06_11wk23_b05_s60_5...
Don't know whether you restored from a backup after resetting device and have re-introduced a problem.
Perhaps try removing E:\Cities + .qf fle from 5800 and store safely on PC desktop, as empty folder structure re-created when you next open Ovi Maps application.

OVI maps shuts down without warning

We have the latest version of OVI maps on both our phone (Nokia E71 and Nokia C5).
when using the Drive-To Navigation.
Sometimes, without any warning, the phone screen goes black, a Nokia logo is briefly displayed, and both the phones go back to their respective homescreens.
Now, it's a bit annoying when this happens at a key point on the journey.
(We know it's not the screen-saver starting, so can rule that out)
Ovi maps is then no longer listed as one of the phones open applications.
So we have to then re-open Ovi Maps, re-input our desired destination, and start our navigation all over again.
It then continues to work fine... until at some random point it'll happen again.

I take it the original post referred to Maps version 3.01. I occasionally have a similar problem with v3.01, and it's only when A-GPS is active. You can try using A-GPS to get a quick lock, and then after a few minutes disconnect from the internet (i.e. rely solely on the GPS satellites). From within Maps: Options--> Tools--> Go Offline.
See if you continue to have problems.
