Licence expired on Nokia Maps 3.0

Hi,
I have a 5800 and have successfully updated the firmware to v31.0.101 and installed maps version 3.01, but I cannot get the free navigation to work. I have the latests maps using map loader, but every time I try and start it navigating it tells me that my license has expired. In Shops & Licences/My Licences all that is listed is 'Drive Europe - Expired on 26/10/2009'.
Shouldn't Nokia Maps 3 be free?
Is there a license code I can input manually to get free drive and walk navigation? Every time I try update (in Shops & Licences/My Licences) it says that there are no updates available.
Can anyone help please?
Cheers,
Northers

Hi northers666
You would probably be better off downloading the .sis file directly to PC and installing that way:
http://maps.nokia.com/ovi-services-and-apps/ovi-maps/downloads#/nokia-n97-mini/
Click on "Or download without data charges"
Sorry I could be bothered setting up new link with 5800XM in the window for the same v3.03...05_s60_5.0.Nocs.sis

Unable to renew Nokia Maps license, 6600 Slide, SW...

Please can anyone help,. I have a Nokia 6600 Slide with the latest software (V6.55). I was successfully using Nokia Maps GPS navigation having purchased a license key for UK/Ireland in January 2011. I have an external bluetooth GPS device. Howver, the Maps license key has now expired (as expected, it was a 1-year licence). Without a license I cannot use the voice-guided navigation function.
When I go throoug the phone menus to purchase a 1-year license again, I get to the menu that asks which payment method I wan to use (I select Visa). At this point the screen just refreshes, with no message or error code. I am not asked for payment card details. I cannot get past the "payment method" menu.
This process worked just fine for me in Jan 2011 when I first purchased a license, and other web browing functions using the built-in web browser are just fine. I have tried refreshing the Nokia software (It was already at V6.55, which is the latest level).
I would appreciate any hints or tips as I really miss my in-car GPS navigation.

This is the bit that worries me as since Nokia stoped marketing their own Bluetooth GPS receiver support for devices without Integrated GPS has been steadily disappearing from firmware updates.
I last purchased a 1 yr. navigation license for my N95 in November 2011 via credit card.

Any chance to prolonge Nokia Maps Drive Europe lic...

Hi, I am still happily using my E51 with Nokia Maps version which needs paid licence for guided navigation and traffic updates. Until now it managed through the Maps Options - Shop and Licences but not anymore. I still can see my soon expiring licences but when I click on Shop, phone just says updating not succesful and thats all. I might be the only one left to buying that licence and they have probably just shut the sales down...? Anybody here managed to buy new licences recently?

There you go …

@seanwycherley
Really doesn't sound good, you could go to Menu > Tools > Settings > Phone > Network > Network mode - see if changing from dual mode to UMTS or GSM makes any difference; could also try brand new SIM card in case contacts in device SIM holder getting a bit worn but probably clutching at straws!

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.

N82 Nokia Maps v2 upgrade

Hello i was wondering if anyone else has experienced problems with the v2 of Nokia Maps ?
A couple of days ago i downloaded v2 of the maps to my pc and then to my N82, everything seemed to be ok,updated the maps, purchased a years licence and i thought that was everything done !
When i activate the navigation for a route it just freezes on 'Calculating Route'!??!and goes no further and is really anoying as i cant use the navigation and have payed for a years licence !!!!!!
anyone any ideas ???

Hi beefy122
You didn't mention whether you have just updated N82 firmware to v3.0.0019 at the same time in which case there may be a need to check Assisted GPS default access point.
As grayburn has suggested use the "delete existing maps" option in Nokia Maploader v2.0.2 prior to downloading your regional maps.
Keep us posted if still experiencing issues here.

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)?

E7, belle & Nokia Maps & Navigation

I have an issue with the maps application which has only become apparent following the upgrade to Belle. When I search for a place by postcode, touch the tick, the application searches for and displays the location. If I then try to save this location in favorites by typing a friendly name at the text entry line and then touch the tick to save it the display cycles back to "save as" again. Once here this loop continues ad infinitum. What is the correct way of adding a destination to the navigation app without getting stuck in this save as loop? Will this buggette be fixed in a future update to either Nokia Maps or Belle?

Licences are now 30 and 90 days plus a full year, I believe this is effective from Maps 2.0 onwards.

Is Nokia maps free to use? 90 day license question

I was led to believe that Nokia maps driving use was free and you didn't need to have a license or pay for a subscription once you forked out for a phone.
http://europe.nokia.com/A4353384
I have started my 90 day free license not knowing what this is for, is this just for the walk service? Isn't the GPS always free?
Cheers for any advice on this.

"Support
What is the difference between subscription and other licence types in Maps 3.0?
Did you know that the latest Ovi Maps 3.03 offers navigation and other services for free? There is no need to use any license on this release. Check if your device is compatible and download the latest version of Maps 3.03 from www.nokia.com/maps/download.
A subscription fee is charged monthly with a phone bill or credit card. You should receive a new licence for the following 30 days automatically in the end of previous licence period. You can cancel the subscription at any point, after which the you are no longer charged for the subscription and don't receive the licence anymore."
Can somebody explain, is it free or not?
i've got 6730 and n82 with maps 3.0 and can't use navigation.. i need to buy a license, why?

WHY DONT I USE NOKIA MAPS???

I am puzzled about Nokia Maps, like why I cant and dont use it!? why am I considering buying Route 66 for £59? and even a TomTom Go One GB? handheld unit??? £100
hang on a minute!! I have a perfectly good N95-1?? so why dont I use Nokia Maps?? its paid for it should work!! well it requires a GSM network connection as well as GPS, which caines all your credit in no time thats with the maps downloaded! what was the point of selling a GPS enabled reciever phone with all the fancy Maps program but I cant use it like any other normal APP!!!???
How much does it cost to run? does it deppend on network?
or ammount of data used, why does it try to download the mao when its already downloaded from Nokia?
Its mad, I can get a satelite to lock in,and even try to plan routes , but it constantly crashes out, its useless , its a shame!! I paid all that money and I cant use the GPS at all anyone else feel the same??

UPDATE:
Re-installed the same firmware, managed to install MAPS 2.02
and it all now works until you need it ! i'll explain later.
SIMPLE MISATKES!:
Make sure you have the memeory card inserted before the install of MAPS 2.02!
Make sure your phones Profile is on GENERAL after restoring your backup after upgrading your firmware. Now MAPS 2.02 should load.
after all this I had to reinstal Nokia Internet Radio Youtube, Fring, AND I installed GOOGLE MOBILE MAPS with a 800kb download over GPRS and it's amazing! need to see a thread dedicated to Google Mobile Maps!
MAPS 2.02 First off Im very impressed with the new version of MAPS and all its features until you NEED certain things!
NO MORE ATMS or CASHMACHINES show up, NO MORE WIFI POINTS!!
how do I fix this?? is this the EXTRAS WE HAVE TO PAY FOR?
Now I'm in town and I'm dettermind to actualy get a fix and use this thing in town under stress of busy traffic and a busy crowd test! I got a FIX with the Red Icon showing and I looked up a shop and hit go and up pops another box saying The Licence blah blah whats going on?? it always tries to charge me at the most inconvienient time ever!
I have no idea if I have to subscribe or get billed off my network?
I have NEVER been able to figure out MAPS :/ like how is it charged? how you subscribe to it? would I need web n walk or surf for a £1 all day on O2 would this help? Its useless otherwise i'm totally perplexed with it. ROute 66 is £59 you install it , it works. or £99 TomTOm 1 Solid State, slim portable, big touch screen, so if after all this setting up time and hassle with MAPS 2 how much will it cost me?

Ovi music unlimited Licence expired or missing

I purchased a nokia N8 with a ovi music unlimited package.
Initially everything was fine but some days latter suddenly whenever I download songs through Ovi player and transfer them to Nokia N8, the phone dosent play them and says 'Licence expired or missing. Get new license?' and then each song takes a minute or so to get a new licence key.
Please help somebody..

Its very likely that during repairs the phone must have been reset and the licence is gone with that.. If you can't find other solution, Pl. use the 'Contact Us' tab at the top of this page and along with the Repair Reference No. request for another key..

Buyers of Nokia Mapping Software please read

OpenBIT LTD . This is the company in charge of charging your account when you purchace the routing function for Nokias Map Service.
If you have read my blog wardy.vox.com then you know I have been charged three times for one activation. I have now sent three emails to the support desk of this company and have yet had no replies . Not even a confirmation!!!
If you go to their site Openbit Ltd they only have a fax number so you cannot call them !! Grrrr , No help desk then so it's pure Email or Fax .
This is terrible support and I intend to let the world know. My Visa company are looking into the over charging for me so I wont worry on that score but **bleep** are Openbit up to. If I was in league with Nokia and other companies to take care of payment I would ensure that my customer support was up to the task . No call centre is a no no if you are not going to respond to Emails .
FAX , Oh my god how dated is that !!! I bet the poor thing is constantly engaged LOL
Take head buyers of the licence if a hickup hapens during the proceedure for Licence don't expect any support or help from OPENBIT to get your money back as they seem not to give a monkeys. Purchace through VISA at least you are covered that way.

Hi. I have serious concerns regarding openbit licence manager. Through no fault of my own, I am on my third N95 handset in just over a week. The first two handsets were faulty and were exchanged.
Problem 1. On handset number one I purchased the upgrade for a 3 year licence for Sat Nav. It initially proved impossible to transfer this licence to the second (and now the third handset). O2 Data support technicians at CPW were unable to help as their information from Nokia is lacking to say the least. Nokia were unable to solve the issue and 'needed to escalate the query' to Smart2Go. I had never heard of Smart2Go until this point. I was told this could take a week to get a response. So, I had purchased a product that I could not use.
I then discovered that Openbit.com provide the licence manager software to Nokia. I emailed the CEO and got a response within 10 minutes. He had solved the problem and had the licence code unlocked. Handset 2 was now operable. However I have the same problem with handset 3 and am still awaiting response from the CEO.
Problem 2. On handset 2 I purchased the upgrade for Quickoffice to ensure I could edit and create documents. I upgraded to Quickoffice Premier 4 for 10.50 GBP. The order confirmation gives (as with the sat nav) gives no contact details as to whom you have purchased from other than [email protected]. The upgrade saves to the hard drive of the handset. So, handset 3 has no upgrade and who do I contact?
Secondly, once this purchase has been made, you are then told you need to purchase another licence to 'Activate Editing' for another 10.50 GBP!
NB. Nokia WILL NOT SUPPORT THESE UPGRADES and say they have nothing to do with Quickoffice, despite the basic software being loaded on the N95.
I have raised these issues with Charles Dunstone, CEO of CPW, Arto Lethonen, CEO of Openbit and have yet to discover who is the CEO of Nokia - if anyone knows contact details, please let me know.
Consumers are dropped into a large 'black hole' and I am investigating whether the Distance selling Regulations 2000 are being contravened.
If anyone has had similar problems and/or has any advice to offer, please let me know.
Thanks

Nokia Maps is just stays calulating a route?

Hello.
I have just got my N95 8G phone. I Hard reset it, install new firmware and got a 7 day trial of Nokia maps.
I try to get it to calulate a route, even a very short one and it just never finnished calculating a route.
I saw a few others online having same problems, so then decideed to install Map loader v2. This software just freezes at startup logo, I guess this isnt Vista 64 compatible?
I then installed the older map load v1.1 and this works. I remove all old maps, and install the voice and map data from scratch, this makes no difference.
Question is, is this a phone fault or software fault, and is there a soloution?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ok, it seems I have solved it. I did the following.
1:format the mass storage.
2:Hard reset.
3:Reinstalled v30 -18 firmware.
4:installed the maps and voice.
Had no effect.
5: Downladed Nokia map update (Beta)
http://www.nokia.com/A41433075
The phone crashed repetedly when either opening Nokia Maps, or sellect add licence key, or words to that effect.
After several attempts I mannaged to add the licence key.
6: I when to Menu/Tools/connectivity GPS Data. Select Position, then options/Satalite status and left the phone on windw seal untill I got at least a 4 bar filled lock.
7: When to nokia maps sellected a destination and it worked.
Next at your own risk:
I then debranded the phone, re installed the firmware v30-18 again which put the older maps in again, but continued to work, i.e calculated the route within 15 seconds.

Nokia maps 3 month license for the N78? Gone?

My N78 was supposed to come with a free 3 month nokia maps license, I am not sure where is the license is since there is nothing in the box, only a card that say that I have a 3 (DAY) trail.
Nokia maps was working before, until I did a full reset for the phone (Not including the MMC) due to the problems it had.
and now navigation is gone ... it asks about purchasing it.
so how can I get the navigation back??
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Go through the puchase procedure up to the point where it asks you to choose a map pricing option, then press Options and select Update - this will connect to the Maps server and reinstate any valid licences that exist to the phone.
If that does not work, contact Nokia cia the Conact Us link and ask them to check your licence.
