Installing lmx POIs to Nokia maps N8

Hi, been researching this all morning and have found some free lmx POIs for uk campsite locations to download. I followed the instructions for loading, sort of as some of the file paths didnt exist for me, and clicked to open the lmx file wthin the phone but I just get a constant loop asking me to cancel or telling me memory is full. Anyone know where I am going wrong? My phone is N8 and I believe the operating software is s3. I can do this on my Garmin and IGO easily but can't seem to get my head round doing it on Nokia maps. The file name is archies_uk.lmx. Ta very much Steve

Admittedly Symbian S^3 can't handle .lmx in the manner of S60 3rd Ed or S60 5th Ed, but provided not very many entries you should be able to send file to N8 via Bluetooth, where it arrives in "Received files" and be able to open it.
I suspect that perhaps something went wrong in conversion to .lmx format.

hi there
i had problems with the gps on my n95 when i first got it heres some things to remember
the gps is under the keypad please make sure its allways open when using it for best signal
its hard to get a lock on in some indoor areas (well alot or indoor areas)
what firmware do you have?? try installing the latest one
nokia maps didnt work very well with the internal gps i left my phone outside in my car for 15 mins with no lock on to signal i was very dissapointed but i tryed garmin mobile xt and it picked up signal very very quickly id say within 45 seconds max probably much less ive heard nokia maps v1.2 is out now and apparently it works alot better then the 1st version so it might be worth updating the maps software here http://europe.nokia.com/A4509291
another thing to do is to make sure assisted gps is on (agps)to do this go into main menu -- tools -- connectivity--gps data--options--posistion settings--then make sure they are all ticked apart from bluetooth gps--
hope that helps mate
so to sumarise
update nokia maps here http://europe.nokia.com/A4509291
or try garmin mobile xt or route 66 both work with the internal gps
then make sure agps is switched on via the settings i mentioned above
then go outside and open phone and load software ie nokia maps (updated version) see if this works any better mate

Upgrade Nokia Maps with Linux

I don't use Windows. Is it possible to install latest version of Nokia Maps 3.0 on my 6210 Navigator with Linux? I mean where can I download sis file? Then I can transfer it on phone via USB or BT and install.
May be I have to buy Windows to upgrade phone software?

Hi,
The Nokia Maps Updater is currently only compatible with Windows Operating System (XP and Vista). This would be the main method of updating to Maps 3.01.
On some devices (e.g.N97) Maps updates are available via the Software Update application in the Device Menu. It might be worth checking if you have this available. (note that this requires donwloading data over the air, and so to avoid costs it is recommended to connect via WLAN)
The .sis file is not available as a seperate download for Maps 3.01
An alternative is to download the Beta version of Maps 3.03, however please note that Nokia Care line cannot offer support for beta products. If you are interested please check out http://betalabs.nokia.com/ovi-maps
Kind Regards
Chris
Although i work for Nokia, my opinions are my own!

E61: Cannot install nokia maps application

I used to have Nokia Maps application installed in my E61 SD card, together with the maps. Then I had to re-format the card, loosing all information.
Once I try again to install Nokia Maps application in my handset, there is an "update error", and the application is not install. My guess: there is somewhere a registry that lists nokia maps application as already installed, and will not allow to re-install again.
I will appreciate your help.
Thanks!

Nokia have recently released a new version of Nokia Maps as well as MapLoader.
I would recommend that you download these (you can find them at http://www.nokia.com/maps) and try again.
First download the MapLoader program and try to delete any kind of previously stored map information on your phone, then download the appropriate Map program for your phone, and finally re-load MapLoader to load the relevant maps for your country on the E61.

Edward

Pre-Installed Nokia Maps on N73 ME

I hav a N73 ME and it came with Nokia Maps installed. Its ver 1.0 if i'm not mistaken. Been trying to use it but it only shows a blank screen with square cursor with option and exit. When i try to update on extra services it prompts to download License Manager. I did download it but and did update my navigation (3day trial ver.) still cant see anything, i dont want to use gprs to download maps, disabled the network connection on Maps and i did try installing map loader on my pc n download maps, uploaded it into my memory card but am unable to see the maps still on my phone, plz advice....very confused.

Checked on another thread and got this solution, seems to be working good but need to get home to download maps and load to my phone, will update once its working
"I got it working!!! I sure hope this helps you all too!!!!
Firstly, make sure you go to the app. manager on your phone (usually found in the applications folder) and delete the nokia maps 2 from there.
Also reformat your memory card.
Then do what tjt79 posted, but I've made it step by step for ppl like me LOL):
Connect your phone to your computer using the "data transfer" NOT PC Suite. A folder should show up, if not, go to 'my computer' and it will be there as "memory card" or whatever you have named your card.
Open it and you will see a few files in there. Make sure you delete the folder "cities" or "diskcashe" if it is still there and also delete a file called qf-file. (for some reason they seem to stay there even after a reformat etc and that's what seems to stop the maps from being seen properly)
I also made sure I had 'show hidden files' checked in the tools/folder options/view so I could see if they were hidden or not.
I then installed the nokia maps from my computer onto my phone via PC suite.
Open up your maps (it may take awhile cause it's starting a new directory structure on your memory card to replace the ones you deleted)... and allow it to connect to the internet briefly so you can get satellite coverage. (dont panic, you will still only see a green page, but if you zoom out you should at least now see your country etc)
Once you've done that, close and connect your phone to your computer using the "data transfer" and open up the map loader program and download your countries maps + voices you may want.
Once done, go back to your maps and you will find that all the streets will be showing once again!!
I hope this helps, it worked for me and I tried it on two different reformatted cards that weren't working before this."

You can install the portable Firefox 3.6.x version, that comes with its own profile, to access websites that do not work with Firefox 5+.
*http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable#legacy
*http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/localization#legacy36
You probably need to create a new profile because the SQLite version used in Firefox 3.5 is not compatible the the SQLite version that is used by current Firefox versions.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Can't install new nokia maps...

i got nokia 5800xpress music, when i tried to install new nokia maps with satnav, it displayed a message saying that first update your mobile. so i checked on nokia site and gave my product code, then it said there isn't any new updates for my phone. i checked my version which is ( 30.0.011) by (*#0000#) (and i tried to update from *#0000# but said no updates) although when i checked the latest updates for 5800xpress music there is 40.0.005...so could anyone help me to install latest update and ovi maps....

I ought to make a template out of this because there is so much confusion about how to get an update...
The *#0000# method (FOTA) does not know what is available through Nokia Software Updater (NSU).
NSU does not know what is available via FOTA.
Just because the FOTA method told you there were no updates does not mean that there are none available through NSU because it does not know what is available via NSU.
The "can I update" page only tells you what is available via NSU.

Hi Man
The maps from the Nokia site probably did not download completely. I suggest go back to the site check the file size and ensure the file you downloaded are the same size.
Then install them on your phone.
Try it!

Nokia Maps 3 doesn't install on Nokia n78 - Error ...

Nokia Maps 3 doesn't install with Nokia Maps updater on a Nokia N78 (Vodafone branded). The instalation file is transfered to the phone, but at the end of the instalation there's an error message 114 - device not supported.
This is interesting because Nokia claims that Maps 3.0 is supported for this model...
One can find this problem had allready been reported in the beta labs forum. The answer was "it's a beta version". People even tried hard resets and still the problem didn't get solved (no need to suggest doing hard resets).
Now, Maps 3 is a final release and the problem that had been reported in beta fase is still there. This shows that Nokia put out a product knowing it would have bugs.
So, I'll use another GPS program (so many out there like Sygic, Garmin, etc), because Nokia Maps 2 maps are outdated (highways are not there, etc).

@djmuzi: you need the Nokia PC Connectivity Solution as this installs the cable drivers to make the program recognise your phone in PC Suite mode. Nokia PC suite also installs these drivers as part of its installation process.
for all: my advice is to visit symbian-guru.com and click on the recent article detailing Ovi Maps graduating from beta to final. in there is a link to the offline download of the Maps client for S60 3rd edition FP2 and S60 5th edition. this should work in a lot of cases.
however, you do need to have a fresh slate in order for Maps Loader 3.0 to work. only way you can do this is by using the Nokia PC Suite cleanup tool available on the website. this will install all traces of PC suite and NCCS/windows driver packages. then reinstall PC suite again, and let it find your phone. once found your phone, you should be able to operate Map Loader.
please throw some kudos our way, it would mean a lot to us
If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!
