E71 & Nokia Maps: Breadcrumbs Tracking in Walk Mod...

I've been using Nokia Maps 2.0 - downloaded local maps - in my E71.
Although I can set a destination and route, I've read its possible to just launch the app, and while walking it'll track your route - not preset - and when you reach whatever destination your after; you can SAVE this new route. I cannot get this to work and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Can anyone suggest a solution?
PS this is my FIRST S60 device.

E71 Nokia Maps testing mode

Buying subject seller told me there are 7 days of trial use of Nokia Maps, after that I will have to purchase a licence code.
But application doesnt allow me to navigate and from the beginning offers to purcgase an activation code.
How can buy anything if I don`t know what I am buying.
4th day I am trying to get an answer looking the manuals and web-sites - nothing helps.
Does anybody know how to get a trial licence or test use of Nokia Maps?
thanx!

@backso
Although you would need to back up essential data first, have you already tried resetting your E71 to "Out of box" state by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by user)?

E71 Nokia maps

Hi every body,
I am a very happy E71 user. Everything is good with this phone but I still have one problem using Nokia Maps.
Nokia Maps is unable to go online when I use it with my cell phone provider connection. When I use it with a WLAN connection, everything works.
My cell phone provider connection is a 3G connection and works fine using web, mail, ... but doesn' work with Nokia maps. Do you know if nokia maps uses a special port to connect ? Do I have to ask my provider (French Orange) to enable something ?
Thanks a lot for your help.
houbs.

i bought an e71, but can’t get maps working.
reloaded the maps 3 times ( a lot: each time 2 GB!)
squares of the map disappear, or whole countries disappear (only the borders left)
Now finally I have the countires i need, but
Nokiamaps locks in / blocks in zooming in
nowhere help to find on the web for this problem
a pity since maps was one of the main reasons why I bought Nokia instead of iphone
moreover, the maps refuse to go online, even when I have no problem going online with other apps
ps
gps navigator works perfectly with mobile googlemaps, but this is not practical out of reach of wifi

Nokia maps / sport tracker problems on 5800

hi ive got nokia maps version 2.0 on my 5800 and just downloaded sport tracker but it doesnt show the map . i gather it only works on version 3.0 but i cant seem to update my maps or my map installer . anyone got any ideas cheers

Unfortunately NokiaSportsTracker and NokiaMaps don't share the map-ressources (it's probably planned in future versions of NokiaSportsTracker).
Therefore you have to establish an internet connection when you start NokiaSportsTracker and after that the application will load the maps from the web if you are on the map-page of a track.

No 3D buildings in nokia maps 3.0

iv downloaded the entire australia maps on my mem card, and using ovi maps 3 on my phone, but i cant see any 3D buildings. is this because its not included in the maps from maps loader. i also went online to see if this was the case and still no 3D buildings wen i switch to 3D mode. any clues?
If iv helped in anyway, hit the kudos button

As my colleague explained, what used to be a single application "Nokia Maps" in some of our earlier products is now split into two separate apps:
Nokia Maps is centred around walk navigation and helping you to find places of interest.
Nokia Drive is centred around use as an in-care navigation tool.
Satellite mode has always been a service that downloads the individual map data automatically from the internet when needed because the satellite data is too large to have an entire country map downloaded to a phone. It is therefore not practical for in-car user when you are travelling fast and data has to be repeatedly downloaded as you move from one map cell to another over great distances, it is also potentially expensive in terms of data charges which would be a turn-off for most users Additionally, for safety reasons the app being used whilst driving needs to be clear and simple in order that your attention is not needlessly distracted from the road ahead.
As already mentioned, the Nokia Maps app is where your find the satellite view, where data consumption considerations are less vital because (1) you have less need to view very large areas, and (2) youare also likely to have the option of using a wireless network and thus avoiding data charges altogether, and where you can focus on the extra detail offered by satellite imagery without endangering your personal safety.

Nokia Map Loader Error in connection

Hi Guys,
I have an N80 and have the MAPS software installed on my phone and the Nokia Map Loader software on my Laptop. However, in order for me to download the maps I have to connect my N80 to my laptop in Data Transfer Mode and then run Nokia Map Loader. This should then allow me to download the Maps. I get an error when connecting to my laptop in Data Transfer Mode. It just says Invalid usb connection or something like that. No I don't think it is the maps software but I would like to know if any of you had the same problem before and how it can be resolved. I sent a note to Nokia Tech team to see if they know but it takes a while for them to get back to you.
So, does anybody know how I can get past this or get the MAPS downloaded?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

can´t connect nokia map loader, error, won´t work?
I had this same problem, found your post looking for an answer (lol), and I just SOLVED the problem ; )
First, you don´t connect in data transfer mode. You must use pc suite mode, or it won´t work.
Second, (and this is the tricky part), YOU HAVE TO INSTALL nokia maps on your smartphone (so far ok, we all know this), but then you have to RUN THE PROGRAM ONCE.
Don´t ask me why, but if you just install nokia maps, then try to connect with nokia map loader, it won´t work. You have to install the program then run it once. Exit the program, then connect to you pc (nokia map loader) with pc suite mode.
BTW, do NOT install nokia maps on your smartphone on the phone memory. ALWAYS USE THE CARD MEMORY, install nokia maps on your memory card, because the maps are so huge. Most phones won´t have enough internal space.
So this is it, no more suffering. Damn, I´m good ; )

Nokia Maps on E71 again - does not load a detailed...

Hello All!
I've looked through previous discussions on Nokia Maps @ E71, however did not find a solution for my problem.
Noka Maps runs on my E71, however, it does not load a detailed maps. Sattelite images work perfectly. My area is well covered with the maps as my N95 loads maps perfectly.
I messed around with Nokia Maps Loader. I even deleted \\CITIES\diskcash.
Nokia Maps restors the directory when I raun it, fixes GPS, downloads about 850kb of data...and shows my city of about 3M population as a crossroads of two highways (in case I use the Maps Loader it even does not try to download and shows the same).
In the meantime, I made Garmin XT working fine on my E71. But I still would like to use Nokia Maps as a back-up when travelling. Thank you for help!!!
PS I have E71-1, 3 weeks old, with the latest firware. I even did not have to re-flash as it came updated.
PPS I wish I was a bit stronger to have in the other pocket N95 just for a back-up

From my experience from Navteq maps if your country is in the list non-routable maps you may get nothing nevertheless Navteq states you will get map but it cannot be used for navigation.
Navteq says ask Nokia, Nokia says ask Navteq.

Tracking option in Latest Nokia Maps gone

Hi everyone, Ive updated my Nokia Maps on N95. Used their 3 days free trial, and now the tracking option has disappeared from the route menu. On the old version you could plan a route from A to B, and instead of Navigating there, you could use the Start Tracking option. This seems to be no longer available. Now if I plan a route, it wants me to buy the navigation stuff. Has any one else had this problem. The maps app is practically useless now unless you want to buy a licence key.

I too was made a victim of Nokia's failure to inform 'Maps' users of the lack of Tracking capabilities in the latest version of Nokia Maps.
I couldn't have been more dissapointed with the latest installment of a program which i had previously been very happy with! My reasons are simply,
1) I don't think the interface is accesible as that in previous versions of Nokia Maps
2) The lack of tracking capabilities
Like so many of you in this discussion i updated Maps and found i disliked the update and wanted to revert back to the latter version, easier said than done but i managed to do it...
First I performed a Hard Reset (*#7780#): WARNING, i recommend backing up the phones data first, i found this out the hard way!
After setting the country, time, date etc i found that Nokia Maps and a number of other Applications had been replaced by another set of icons and were named differently, eg. Nokia Maps now couldn't be opened and was called Smart2Go.
To rectify the apparently worsened problem i downloaded the Nokia Software Updater which informed me that although i had the latest Firmware i could reinstall it - i did this and PROBLEM SOLVED!
I hope by sharing my experience others might have their problem solved. I think the solution lies in reinstalling the phones software on Software Updater.

View GPS tracks in Nokia Maps

Is there a possibility to view GPS tracks in Nokia Maps (1.2), e.g. if the track is in gpx or kml format? I tried several converters but the lmx file that I get only gives me waymarks but no routes or tracks. That's ok for short tracks but problematic for long tracks with a lot of waymarks. Is there any other way to deal with this?

Lost favourites in Nokia Maps (E71)

Can someone please help me!!
I've stored a number of locations as 'favourites' in Nokia Maps and have lost them all after having installed a firmware update (E71). I did a full synchronise of the device before installing the update and then did another full synchronise after the update.
When I open Nokia maps all my locations that I saved are not there.
If I search my device on my PC I see a folder titled: CITIES which has a sub-folder titled: disckache which has a number of subfolders in it each with one, two or three individual files in them. Could these be the original locations I had saved?
Adam

Hi mdsanto,
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
Can you elaborate further on your concern? Can you remember what you were doing with the phone before the Nokia maps disappeared?
Try to reinstall the software using the Nokia Suite. This should restore the pre-installed applications on the phone. You can download the Nokia Suite application here;

E71 and Nokia Maps

I am trying to compare the 2 Satnav systems on my phone......
Vodafone SatNav gives me 18 month subscription with voice navigation
Nokia Maps giives me 3 month subscription withOUT voice nav. (I am only a week or so into the 3 months)
If I go to download voice it prompts me to pay but doesnt say how much ??
Isnt there voice trial ubscription ??

The next time you try, when you get the prompt to pay, just click on the update option. All Nokia Subscriptions come with voice and so should yours. ALl you need to do is to update your license details by clicking on the update option.
You have to be online to allow Nokia Maps to access the license server when doing this.

Nokia Maps v3.8

I just installed on my N8 running v25 the new Nokia Maps v3.8 which came up as an update on Nokia Suite. Installation completed OK, but I cannot launch the application - "Maps: Feature not supported!".
I cannot see any Maps entry in the list of Installed Apps in the App manager, so I cannot uninstall.
I have downloaded maps to my handset and I can see them in Nokia Suite no problem.
Any ideas ?

...2. On top of screen, long press to bring up bring up "option" like "Walk to" or "Drive to" or "Add to route" etc etc.
Am I correct?...
Yes, except can save to Favorites but not add to route. Ver 3.08 does not do routes with intermediate waypoints as far as I can see in the just released version (although I have not explored looking very hard for it). The beta was the same and to save me typing a lot of words if you go to the Nokia Beta Labs site you will find quite a lot of discussion about removal of this.
It would be nice to have it but frankly I have not found it to be as much of an issue as I first thought it might be. That because I normally just used intermediate waypoints for places I wanted to stop at enroute. It is very easy in that case to just from that waypoint click the next destination in the favorites list (or hover over and click "Drive to" or "Walk to").
Still does not do bluetooth to headsets but my understanding is that is a phone firmware issue not the Maps app itself.

Nokia Maps is a giant step backwards

My relevant background - I live in Los Angeles, owned an HTC HD7S for more than a year and just recently got a Lumia 920. I like everything about my new 920 except vibration noise, and this horrid Nokia Maps app which is forced on us...
Problems with Nokia Maps:
Lack of integration with the rest of the operating system.
Nokia maps is an island to itself. I click an address from a people hub contact, it opens Windows Phone Maps, not Nokia Maps. I click an address from a Bing search which has a dedicated hardware button, and it opens Windows Phone Maps, not Nokia Maps. I click an address in an email, you guessed it, it opens Windows Phone maps.
Searching in Nokia Maps has terrible results
I tried 3 searches today during the course of my day using Nokia Maps. Si Laa is a Thai restaurant I wanted to try a few miles from my house with an obviously unique name. The results I get are for Joyce Cafe, something in Germany and Slovenia. Next I try UPS in hopes it will find the company owned UPS Customer Center a quarter mile from my house. It doesn't find it at all, but does find alot of ups stores that are further away. Nokia Maps choked on another restaurant in Beverly Hills I tried to find. My wife's iPhone 4s had no problems with any of these.
Local surface street traffic info is missing
On the Lumia 920, I don't get any surface street traffic info. I do see traffic info for highways and freeways. I used to get local surface street traffic on my old HD7S Windows Map. Windows Phone Maps shows some sporadic street traffic data but is not quite right either. I called Nokia about it, the level 1 techie tells me I'm supposed to have local street traffic but has no further explanation and has escalated to level 2...
Nokia removed the Windows Phone Maps.
As shown in the first point above, Windows maps is still clearly on the phone, but Nokia removed the tile for it from the app list. There doesn't seem to be a way to directly open Windows maps. This would be fine except that Nokia maps, which is supposed to be the replacement, is worse than Windows Phone maps in so many ways.
There isn't a single reason to use Nokia Maps over Windows Phone Maps.
The only reason I use it is because Nokia has seen fit to make Windows Phone Maps hard to start by removing it from the apps list.
Nokia should leave both map apps available and in the apps list.
If Nokia Maps is the superior product, people will use it. Right now I'd say Windows Phone maps is superior in every way and that's a shame for Nokia who is supposed to be a mapping leader...
