E6 - Ovi Maps Voice guidance over BT Car Music Sys...

OK everyone has been screaming out a lot on this issue, I had the same problem while using E71 before while using the Ovi Maps.  (Refer my earlier post)
/t5/Maps-Navigation-and-GPS/No-Voice-Guidance-under-Bluetooth/m-p/665637#M21482
It seems Nokia have partly answered to this problem, but still there is big OPEN FAULT. 
Got my Nokia E6 y'day and Tried the Map's Voice guidance while connected to my same Car System's BT (Blaupunk Hamburg MP68 - refer my earlier post ), here are the changes I noticed.
1) While playing music through CD/USB, Nokia E6 gives out Voice guidance while navigating through its "own" LoudSpeaker.  THIS IS A GOOD CORRECTION to the previously noticed problem and the guidance is not lost. 
2) Now comes the issue.  While navigating, when there is a incoming or outgoing phone call, music stops and the phone voice conversation are routed to the BT music system properly (This is something the basic functionaly and it works as it as properly).   But the  Voice guidance is totally lost in this scenario!!!  THERE IS NO VOICE GUIDANCE EITHER ON THE PHONE'S OWN LOUDSPEAKER OR THE BT MUSIC SYSTEM.
 Nokia, expecting u to fix this bug sooner...

Looks like this fault will stay for ever...   
Here's reply from Nokia Careline when complained this problem.

  • Lumia 920... Backup maps, voice guidance, and apps

    How can I backup apps and maps/voice guidance before a hard reset process?? Making backup copies of photos/vidoes is simple... But I have some 8 GB of apps/maps/voice guidance and I really need most of them... Is there any way to back these up?
    Thanks in advance

    not sure why you want to back those up.
    after you reformat, you can just reinstall them very easily.
    that is, if you are talking about the nokia maps/drive
    if it is another 3rd party application, then you may want to specify

  • Ovi maps problems with Nokia 5800 xpress music

    Since Ovi updated the maps I've had trouble using it. I have version 40 firmware which was installed by Vodafone when my device expired. Despite the update, Ovi maps just crashes the phone when I try to use it. The screen goes blank and I get all coloured lines flashing down one side and the phone reluctantly restarts. Any advice please?

    I am having exactly the same problem with my 5800 xpress music having updated to version 40.0.005.235.10 and installed the new version of OVI maps and the software Own Voice.
    I have also tried reinstalling the sotware, restoring my phone to factory settings and resetting my phone by pressing the green, red and camera button whilst powering up. The problem persists. I will be making a call and within a few seconds of the call being connected the phone switches off and back on again. I also get the the coloured lines flasing on the screen.
    Please Nokia Support, help us out.

  • FM Transmit and GPS voice guidance

    I activated the FM Transmit on my C7 mobile. I am able to listen to music stored on my mobile phone on my car stereo. But I could not get the GPS voice guidance to broadcast on my car stereo.
    Can anybody tell me how  to make the GPS voice guidance to work on my car stereo.
    Thanks

    @orion13
    Welcome to the forum!
    Presumably you can still get voice guidance via speaker of C7?
    Due to technical restrictions the audio output of Ovi Maps voice guidance is not supported over bluetooth connection to a car kit unfortunately. It was apparently a technical trade-off in the Bluetooth implementation prioritizing optimal use of Bluetooth headsets rather than enabling voice instructions through the carkit.

  • N8-00 CK-100 & voice guidance in GPS

    Above combination with the current firmware release in all.
    Phone pairs with BT to the car kit fine but does not say 'player connected' unless playing music from the phone when it all works fine.
    As such, voice guidance on GPS doesn't play through car's radio speakers only phone's own internal speaker.
    If I play music from the phone, then yes, the voice guidance works, but does not cut out the music that is playing.
    How do I pair up the music player through BT, so the voice guidance works through the CK-100 please?

    If you mean Ovi Maps voice navigation, the output of the Maps voice instructions over bluetooth to a car-kit is unfortunately not supported. You need to use the phone speakers for the navigation voice.

  • Nokia OVI Maps - Free Navigation

    Nokia OVI Maps - Free Navigation
    Mobile navigation for everyone, the Ovi Maps takes you where you want to be and shows you what you want see, with navigable maps for over 70 countries worldwide. All this with only one click. And it's all free.
    - Free Drive navigation
    - Free Walk navigation
    - Free maps and map updates
    - Free Events guides
    - Free Lonely Planet guides
    - Free Michelin guides
    You thought Garmin and TomTom were in trouble when Google announced its free Navigation service? Wait until investors hear Nokia's news.
    Reuters is reporting that Nokia will offer free navigation on its smartphones. However, instead of just the US (the current Google limitation sans hacking), Nokia will be demonstrating its reach by offering free turn-by-turn directions in 74 countries and 46 languages - a move that should cover 20 million smartphones globally with Ovi Maps available in over 180 countries.
    Update: The original San Francisco Chronicle report has been pulled but Google cache caught a bit more saying that Nokia's navigation service is "capable of operating completely offline" unlike Google Navigation which requires data connectivity.
    Update 2: Nokia just made the download link live. Hey, where's the N97 and N900.
    Update 3: And it's official. Starting today, Ovi Maps walk and drive navigation is free across the globe. Drivers receive turn-by-turn voice guidance including lane assistance, traffic information (in 10 countries including the US), and safety camera and speed warnings while pedestrians will be guided on shortcuts through parks and pedestrian-only zones in over 100 cities across the globe. It all works offline too, which should extend battery life and keep that navigation humming even while puttering about in data dead zones without racking up international roaming charges (take that, Google). From March 2010, all new Nokia GPS enabled smartphones will come installed with the new Ovi Maps application and pre-loaded with local country map data and walk and drive navigation with access to location-aware Lonely Planet and Michelin travel guides at no extra cost. Additional premium guides like a weather service and events / movies are also included. Just 10 devices from Nokia's massive catalog are available today a list that includes the N97 Mini, 5800 XpressMusic, 5800 navigation edition, E52, E55, E72, 5230, 6710 navigator, 6730 classic and X6.

  • New Indian Turn by Turn Voice Guidance Maps with o...

    Dear Friends,
    MapmyIndia.com offers Sygic mobile maps (http://inav.mapmyindia.com/product/sygic/sygic_mob​ile_maps.html) claims to have intuitive design, easy to read as you drive, crystal-clear spoken voice instructions and route guidance with map coverage of 401 cities all over India. What is also claimed is MapmyIndia Sygic mobile maps, once installed, are stored on your phone/SD card. This means that you do not require a GPRS or data connection to get them working. What's more, there are no subscription or recurring charges. The one time cost is 55 US Dollars which would be a great saving as I often use the map while in Indian roads. This provides me a better option compared to Nokia Maps which I like but is expensive and Google Maps which doesnt yet come with turn by turn voice guidance for Sybian 5 platforms (only available in Android 2).
    The customer care of MapmyIndia mentioned that it is totally compatible with my new Nokia N97. However, I would like to find out if any of you have used this service and if it affects the performance of the phone (speed, memory, crashing etc) in any way. How does Nokia looks at such third party alternatives? 
    Many thanks for your help and for sharing your experience.

    Dear cjlim, Thanks for the input. Well, in terms of updated maps, the google can't be matched. However, Nokia map updates do not necessarily cover all the rapid changes thats taking place all over India. As per your suggestion I had a chat with the customer service rep of mapmyIndia and the response are as following which says the update is every six months and it could be downloaded free.
    team_mapmyindia2 [3:09:09 PM]: Welcome to our real-time support chat. How can I help you today?

  • Ovi maps wont display downloaded voice files

    Hi
    I have a C5-00 5MP and I downloaded maps for walking ("with street names"). But Ovi Maps seems unable to get aware of it : the menu allowing to select the walking guidance voice in settings remains empty. The voices for driving guidance are displayed OK though.
    Anyone got an idea ? My software version is 071.003.
    Thanks in advance.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    OK it works now !
    I tried to select the option "Bips and vibrations" in the walking guidance choice menu, and it asked me to connect to download voice information or something like that. Afterwards, the voice list became more comprehensive, with the french voice (among others) visible.
    I'd have prefered not to have to download, since I dont have data in my package. But it seems I didnt have a choice.
    Btw there is now a file voice_catalog.FRE in the folder E:/CITIES/diskcache/VOICES. So the solution was actually to remove the voice_catalog.ENG from that folder. But it was necessary after that to go to the walking guidance choice menu in Ovi maps, and select the option "Bips and vibrations", as I said.
    Thanks again for ur help

  • 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.

  • N96 Nokia Maps "Voice" & Bluetooth car radio.

    Hi, I have a problem with Nokia Maps voice and Bluetooth car radio. Although the N96 voice call works well through the car radio (tevion md 814508, Bluetooth version 1.2) the nokia maps "voice' does not come through. Also I would like to stream my phones MP3 music as well.
    Any ideas?

    Hi confiture
    A bit of an update.
    Like johndub in his post I've found that if I switch the car stereo to aux I do hear a voice but really crackly and distorted. You can't really tell what 'he' is saying. Play some music with Car Menu/Music Player and it's clear. Switch the stereo to radio (or off) and the voice is gone.
    This obviously is quite a bug. Nokia not being exactly 'joined up' when it comes to their hardware and software releases again possibly?
    "If you start car menu and do not activate the music player, instead move straight to navigation, selecting your route etc then it will mute the radio and send the guidance down the mono channel like a phone call"
    Unfortunately I can assure you this doesn't happen.
    I have noticed there is a software update for the CK-300 but I don't have the correct cable for the job. Any idea where I could get this done? I found a link for Nokia installers on here a while ago but I'll be damned if I can find it now

  • "Last devices used" menu every second over Ovi map...

    Hello all,
    I installed Ovi Maps on my phone, and have a huge problem with it: Every second the"Last devices used" pops up and goes away again.
    Since a few years I own (and use) a Nokia N95, and I just used 'Setup Nokia Maps Update 1.0.8.exe' to get Ovi maps on my phone. Apparently I had to use 'Nokia Software Updater' to make sure I got the latest version. Done that too.Next step is to use the Nokia Map Loader to get the maps on there. Done that too.
    Here is the version info of the installed map:
    I have Bluetooth enabled. Now, when I use the maps, every second the"Last devices used" pops up and goes away again. Mildly irritating would be a severe understatement here. Switching Bluetooth off and starting the map again gives the question "Bluetooth is currently switched off. Switch on?". Every second. It seems impossible to answer the popup-question or do something with the popup-menu.
    Is this a known prob by anyone, and can you please tell me a fix or workaround (preferably a fix of course)?
    Thank you,
    wlamee
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    And I got a nippy reply from the Benelux Nokia Care.
    The trick is I had to go to Tools -> Settings -> General -> Positioning -> Positioning Methods, and switch off 'Bluetooth GPS'. I think I always ahd this switched on and it never complained with the standard Nokia maps, but I'm not sure - I think I saw that menu only once, when I was palying with my GPS and the original maps.
    But hey, it's fixed. Cool!

  • With an Iphone 4s you have maps installed but is this with voice guidance? I don't have my own iphone yet but I would use it as a GPS if there is voice guidance on the Iphone

    With an Iphone 4s you have maps installed but is this with voice guidance? I don't have my own iphone yet but I would use it as a GPS if there is voice guidance on the Iphone

    There is no built in navigation app on the iPhone. If you want navigation, with voice guidance, you will have to purchase an app in the app store. While you can use the iPhone maps app to plan/map a trip, it is not a true navigation app & does not provide voice guidance. The iPhone maps app also requires a data connection, as none of the data is stored locally on your phone.

  • N900 and Voice Navigation / New OVI Maps

    s much as I love my N900 it is so frustrating to walk into a T-Mobile store here in the US and find that the simple Nokia Nuron has much newer version of Ovi Maps. While Nokia is busy launching voice navigation for the N97's and such, the N900 is left waiting in the wings. Does anyone have any news regarding when Nokia will again turn their gaze back to what is supposed to be their flagship device?

    Not only does Nokia not support Ovi Map downloads on the N900...it also does not support Native Video calls and sending of photos/Video via MMS...sent a note to their support careline..and the reply below was what I received...:-(( This is NOKIA's FLAGSHIP product with 2  cameras and they do not support Video Calls....why launch a product with 2 cameras which does not do Video calls...Hope someone from NOKIA is reading this tread..don't launch products when it is NOT ready .... extreemely dissappointed...might have to consider other brands of phone for my next phone purchase.
