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.

Dissatisfied N97/Ovi Maps owners - tell Nokia what...

I just noticed that Nokia is running an online survey about Ovi Maps:
http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps
I have used the opportunity to tell them how lousy the N97 and Ovi Maps 3 combination is. I hope that all other members of this forum who are dissatisfied will also complete the survey so that Nokia might get the message that something needs to be done!

Three things,One maps always opens on the last location you had it opened, and finds current location once it gets a gps lock, Two if you haven't dowloaded and pre-installed maps on the phone ( the ones the application reads to navigate) with Nokia Map Loader then it will have to download them 'on the 'fly' which will use a lot of data and slow everything considerably. Last if you only just got the phone, it probably doesn't have Maps3.03 which tends to function much better. Worth checking for software updates both with the software updater on the phone OTA and with Ovi Suite on PC !
Good Luck

Maps not launching (Nokia 5800)

I have recently purchased a Nokia 5800, downloaded Ovi maps, checked for current upgrades(my software is 50.xxx.xx.x) etc but when I attempt to launch maps nothing happens and I am returned to the menu page. Can anybody help..?
Solved!

Hi alfie006
Just to elaborate on post by farby when you say "downloaded OVI Maps" do you mean that either you downloaded regional mapping 5800XM with microSD inserted or that you updated particular version of OVI Maps application installed on device?
When you say that "nothing happens on attempting to launch OVI Maps" do you mean application opens then crashes or doesn't open at all?
If it opens then crashes it usually means that you should delete E:\CITIES + .qf file from memory card, re-start OVI Maps when you get a setting up progress bar which re-defines folder structure on microSD required by Maps facility within OVI Suite on your PC.

OVI maps locks when exiting 5800

Was running 3.03 all working well then updated to 3.04 when I exited maps if I pressed the white button on phone it would show that maps was still running, if I tried to open maps screen would go black the only way to close it was to restart phone. I deleted 3.04 and this reverted it back to 3.01 but the problem continued, so I did a back up and then did a hard start (hold down green and red button and camera then start phone) Still did not correct problem any suggestions
Cheers Bob

I am not sure whether this will fix your problem but you can thry this once.
1. Uninstall ovi maps from device and remove exitsing maps which are avilable in device
2. Reboot device
3. Connect device with NOS and install maps for 5800
4. run ovimaps from device
5. Download country maps and search now.

Problems with OVI Maps 3.4 for 5800 XpressMusic

I downloaded Ovi Maps 3.4 on my 5800 and now every time I try to start using maps, the screen goes dim and the phone restarts itself. What I have to do to solve this problem?
I was using the version 3.3 and the navigation was working perfect.

Hi c_dzeprailidis
When you upgrade to OVI Maps v3.04 it adds an additional positioning method "Wi-Fi/Network which can cause issues for some users, so try disabling it. Go to Menu > Applications > Location > Positioning > Positioning methods.

Ovi Sync tool for Nokia 5800 - Cannot update exisi...

Hi,
I am using OVI Sync tool, to copy/sync my Phone contacts regularly on Outlook Address book.
There i found the bug in the OVI Sync manager, that if i have changed mobile number of contact "A"in my phone, i do sync using OVI suite on my PC, to update my same Outlook contact "A", the sync tool does not have intelligence to check whether the contact "A" has chnged its Mobile number in the phone, and it is mismatching with the one present in Outlook... (It simply does the sync process..and says no updates foundin the phone) i have marked the sync preference such a way that, "Always copy Nokia phone contents to Outlook"
Eg. Initially Outlook and Phone are in sync. Contact A - mobile numer - 111 (in outlook and in phone)
I change mobile number 111 to 000 in phone.
Now Outlook has 111 Phone has 000 for contact A
I do sync using OVI Tool
After sync complete, the Outlook contact should get updated to 000. Which is not happening

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 and bluetooth carkit at the same time

I tried to use OVI Maps on my Nokia 5800.
If my bluetooth carkit is connected, I don't have audible route descriptions. As soon as the carkit is disconnected, I can hear the driving instructions again.
Is it possible to use navigation using OVI Maps and a bluetooth carkit at the same time?
Erik

@ErikdePotter
Welcome to the forum!
This was possible if you used Nokia CK-300 carkit (now discontinued) which had dedicated CarMenu application installed upon device:http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/nokia-ck-300/application-software as option to route "All audio events" via car speakers!

Unable to install any Nokia/Ovi Maps after hard re...

Hi, I made a hard reset to N8 running Symbian Anna 25.07 and I'm unable to install Nokia Maps. Software Updater doesn't show any Maps related updates, I cant find any installer in Nokia Store, installation of Ovi Maps 3.06 and Nokia Maps 3.08 found on the Internet fails as well.

@wgarczynski
Puzzled here as it was only when N8 released on PR1.0 a year ago that there was NOT a version of Ovi Maps pre-installed in device firmware but v3.04 subsequently added so would be removed by a "hard reset"; if I remember correctly v3.06 is included within Symbian Anna, which should be this version:http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/global/phones/software/ovi_maps_installer_3.06_11wk23_b05_tb9.2_...
Have you tried re-installing existing firmware using standalone Nokia Software Updater? http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/...erSetup_EN.exe

Google maps for Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

Hi, try Options -> Tools -> Connections and select a working connection. It needs at least a data connection to download maps from Google unlike Nokia maps where the maps can be downloaded in advance.
I find that the maps are more detailed in Google compared to Nokia maps though and is more 'eye friendly'.
Cheers.

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 keeps wanting to download data after upda...

I have the Nokia 5230 which I bought in July. I had also installed the OVI suite on my PC, which I used to download the full map of Malaysia and Singapore. I could happily use the GPS function without having to download large amount of data through the phone, or allow it to go online if I want to search for location. In the case where I wanted to use it offline, zooming in or out at any level allows me to see the roads and place names clearly.
A few days back while using OVI Maps, a popup came up saying a new version is available. I promptly allowed the download, but installation failed saying there "was not enough memory".
I uninstalled apps from my phone, including "Nokia Maps". After clearing up apps and getting about 40MB free memory, was I able to install the new version of OVI maps. I promptly re-downloaded the Malaysian and Singapore Maps through Ovi SUite.
Now I notice OVI Maps now download large chunks of data through my data connection during GPS usage. If I disallow online use, my GPS shows nothing but a blank "map". If I allow going online for the first time, and not the second time, when using GPS, the same blank appears if I zoom out or zoom in. It's as if the maps are not there, so data connection is required to download them. How can this be when I have already downloaded the Malaysian / Singaporean map to my phone through OVI suite? I have set on my phone and the OVI suite for the data to be saved to my microSD card.
Please help. This is driving me up the wall.

Here's what you can try to do.
1. Back up your phone memory.
2. Update the phone software.
3. Download Ovi Maps in this link : http://maps.nokia.com/services-and-apps/ovi-maps/free-downloads#/nokia-5230/
4. Remove the "qf" and "Cities" folder on your memory card.
5. Install the Maps Application on the newly updated phone.
6. Once the installation is successful, run the Maps on your phone but don't go online. This will re create the two folders that you deleted in the memory card.
7. Open Settings of the maps application then click on maps. Make sure that it will use the maximum allowable size (90%)
8. Download the Maps data again using Ovi Suite.
Every one can correct if I'm wrong. ^_^

Favorites problem after upgrading to ovi maps

I just upgraded my 5800 to ovi maps using the Nokia Maps updater. Everything seems to work except for one significant problem. Although all my old favorites are still there, when I go to the favorites menu, there is no text in the menu items, or the text is the same black color as the packground. I can see little icons, and i can go to my places if i remember that is the 2nd item on the menu and there I can see a number of items equal to my favorites, with little icons and also no text. I have to blindly select and discard till I get the one I was lloking for. Once selected though, they appear on the map just fine. Please help.

Do you have many pictures?
Have your tried to reinstall the phone software using SUS to check if the problem remains?
