N95 Nokia Maps 2.0 crashing

Help !
Last week I updated the firmware on my unbranded N95 to the latest 21.0.016 and udated Nokia Maps, then went a drive in the car to use the free trial and it worked perfectly.
As I was going on holiday at the start of the week, I purchased the 30day useage and also the traffic info update.
On Monday we set of on our holidays, we stopped at a service station and before leaving I put on Nokia Maps, within minutes it had pinpointed my location, but it kept asking to close my current connection and every time i did it the phone turned off!
If i selected no, it would let me select my destination and then crash!
I have lots of applications installed, so i removed anyone that used the GPS function (ie Picture locator) and it still does not work.
The only items that remain live (that I know of) when the phone is on is Step Counter & M-Panel, i removed M-Panel and turned of Step Counter and it does not make any difference at all.
I am annoyed that I have spent money and I cant use it, also the Traffice Info never worked anywhere I went, it kept saying (not availabe). Even when on M74 & M6
I went on to Nokia FAQ when I came back from holidays and it is a known problem,
I have re-installed Nokia Maps 2.0 and maps / voices but it still crashes.
Has anyone experienced this?

N95-1 with LATEST FIRMWARE
& "Nokia_Maps_2.0_2204_3.1_u.sis"
UPDATE:
Now MAPS 2.0 loads perfectly connecting to WIFI LAN but as I zoom in closer as I get to street view it crashed out eveytime. and zooming into recent find the same.
Tried GPS ASSISTED, crashes out
Tried Just Network BAsed but crashes the same.
And before I was able to do everything except LIVE GPS Voice Assisted guidance but it would PREVIEW the Journey and the Voice used to work, its now totally unusable.

N95 Nokia maps error

I have reset my N95 and afterwards Nokia maps doesn't work anymore. When I want to start up the programme, I see the world in the screen but when he has to open the maps menu I see the standard Nokia menu (contacts, etc.).
Does somebody know how to restart my maps again?
Thanks!

What happens whilst it tries to openj? Does it get to either 30% or 90% then stop? If this is thes case then delete the 'Citiezs' folder from the memory card, start up Maps and allow it to connect to the internet to update its file structure, then you will have to reinstall your maps and voices again.
If this doesn't work or it is not the issue, try reinstalling the Maps application itself.

Nokia Maps 3.0 crash bug with E75 firmware 201.12....

Phone: E75-1 / Type RM-412
Firmware: 201.12.01
Nokia Maps 3.0
I haven't seen this reported anywhere... but then again maybe I don't master the advanced search so well, apologies if this is a duplicate.
Nokia Maps crashes my phone when launching it.
The phone just switches itself off after the app opens (and shows me a map with a red dot on it) .
I haven't done anything to the phone apart from upgrading the firmware in the past few weeks, and after fiddling with the options, I discovered that the crash is due to an option that is active by default under Positioningmethods: Network based.
Disabling it makes everything go back to normal.
I don't remember this option from the previous firmware version at all? Is there an update to Nokia Maps that I have missed? (the beta labs version isn't available for this device)

Hi mika123
There have always been four available options in Positioning Method: Bluetooth GPS, Assisted GPS, Integrated GPS and Network GPS of which the latter three are ticked by default.
Surprised that Network GPS causes issues as is just using triangulation from cell towers but in case of some network providers packets of data do have to be sent and received.

My nokia maps v3.09 crashes without opening, witho...

Hi. I updated my nokia maps a few days back thru the 'map loader' app. After they were updated, i was able to use them. But now, when i click on the 'maps' icon the white circle rotates as if the app is loading but is doesn't load and takes me back to menu without any error message. I don't think the update is the issue here because i've done that in past. I've tried rebooting my phone a couple of times, not worked. Maybe i've to delete any file in my phones memory?? Im using a C7 belle. Thanks!
Solved!

Actually there is NO update available at the moment. So, technically the update is yet to come ...
It would perhaps be better to make clear that this issue ONLY affected devices using Nokia Maps v3.06 and it is only for these devices that previous 00.02.46.103 made available and not Symbian S^3 onwards using v3.08 aand 3.09 for which 00.02.47.103 remains the latest.

N95, Nokia Maps, Parrot Hands Free, NIGHTMARE !!!!

I am sure this will not be able to be resolved, but here goes.
I have all the above but when ever i do anything on my phone, the sound comes thru the speakers via the Parrot Hands free Kit. This includes the navigation which believe me is mightily annoying !!
Everytime she speaks, the stereo gets muted.
So is there anyway for me to be connected to the hands free and have the navigation only come thru the phone speakers ???
Please help
Paul

Anybody please ?
Basically i am asking if there is anyway to have the satnav working without it going thru my Parrott device but still able to use the parrott for calls ?
Thx
Paul

Navigation with Nokia Maps crash (N95 8Gb)

Hi All.
Does anyone have this problem, when the Nokia Maps start Navigation and is calculation route, Crash !
Thanks,

Here's my brand new, maps crashing issue; For some bizzare reason, I thought I'd try to use a-gps. I've always had pretty good luck with the thing syncing but it could be better.
I recently came to Germany and got a MOBI (vodafone) sim card and I set vodafone live as my provider. It didn't seem to be any faster so I went into setting, (in maps) and tried to turn it off.
The problem is; I can't. When I go into Maps settings and click on Network, it shuts off Maps or reboots the phone. Now, whenever I turn on maps, it logs onto vodafone and burns off all of my credit in about 5 minutes...and I can't turn it off and I can't use maps without using all of my expensive credit.
It's really **bleep** me off. This is the first software issue I've had with this thing and I have no idea how to solve it. I've gone into Tools>General>Positioning methods and only have Integrated gps checked but it's still logging on.
It's a real pain. If I could remember my lock code, I'd reset everything to default.
Any idea...?
Thanks

Nokia Maps do not download - N95

hi guys.. I am trying to download the nokia maps but it sits at 0.0% for hours and does not download anything. I first tired 2 weeks ago and left it running overnight and it only downloaded 61% of the map and appeared to hang. I crashed it and tried again, yet now I cannot get the download to start... any thoughts?

Have you opened Maps on your phone with the memory card inserted at least once? That loads some files onto the card - the MapLoader looks for those, so if it can't see them, it won't recognise it.

Nokia N95 and Maps Software

Hi, Just recently I bought licence to Maps from Nokia for one month just to check how it works. The day I bought this I could not open Maps software for a single time. Because whenever I click on maps, its load 90% then it hang. I tried again and again nothing it does not open, I restart the mobile, nothing happen. Can you please inform me what can I do? Thanking you.

@countryjet123
Would need to know whether you are using Nokia Maps v2.0 or Ovi Maps v3 from here:http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/maps-support/compatibility-and-download#/nokia-n95/
Map data is different between these versions and most common cause of application crashing is corrupt or incorrect data.
You may need to delete E:\cities + .qf file, re-open Maps application to re-initialise application and re-define necessary folder structure for Ovi Suite > Maps to re-download regional mapping.

Special characters issue with Nokia Maps on N95

Hi there,
when using Navigation in conjunction with Nokia Maps on my N95, all streets and towns which contain any special character in their name (for example: é, è, ü, ä, ö, etc…) do appear as unreadable garbage on the screen of the N95.
I only noticed the problem after having purchased the 3 years license Navigation upgrade (EUR 99.99) and immediately notified Nokia. That was back in October. Since then I have called them at least 10 times and ultimately I have asked for a refund as no solution is still available.
In all these calls with Nokia, the only reasonable argument I heard was that maybe (!!!) the new software update version 20.0.015 released back at the end of November could solve the issue. Unfortunately, for my phone (which is a branded one) the update is not yet available.
Today, after calling them again, I was told that Nokia’s policies do not foresee refunds and therefore my request has been rejected. I was told to bring my phone to a Nokia Store and see if they can help me (I don’t see how). I was also told that maybe I would have to send-in the phone for repair.
This is soooo frustrating that despite the 3 months of patience and all the money spent for the N95 (not quite cheap), the navigation upgrade and the phone calls to Nokia, I still have the same issue. I will probably end up filing a complaint with a monthly consumer’s magazine in the hope they will publish my story.
After all, it may not even be Nokia’s fault but rather the guys who are responsible for the maps, but if Nokia accepts to have a commercial venture with a vendor, than they also accept liability for the joint product. And by turning down my legitimate request for refund, they have proven not to give a **bleep** about people like you and me.
Forgive me for the long post - needed to release some of the frustration...

I have been using an N95-8GB since Nov.'07. From my experience with this phone that has a built-in mass memory besides the phone memory. I had trouble retrieving some of the softwares I have installed. For eg. I have saved some themes in the mass memory & I could not find it when I want to delete it. There are some 3rd parties games software inside where I cannot even delete
This is what I don't like about the phone. I have bought an N82/Black recently as it uses an external memory card.
Coming back to Nokia maps. Personnaly, I don't think they are that good & I have problem downloading it into my phone from my PC after having downloaded it from Nokia.
By the way the Nokia map is not even the latest map 2.0. Is still a 1.0
I used Navfone map software & it works OK in the 8GB. You have to purchase it.
I have used a couple of N-series phones in the past ie. N-90, N-70, N-71, N-73, N-80/Black, N95, N-95/8GB & now N-82.
Common with all N-series phones. After you have disconnected when you are done with your call you have to wait for a while before the word "disconnected" disappears.
The more features it has, the more problem you are gonna to encounter.
Unless you want to download softwares into your phone & have a good camera thats where the N series phones come in.
For normal usage, a 40 series phone will suffice.

Nokia Maps 2.0 don't show maps on N95

Installed the latest firmware on the N95 (V21.0.016 14-02-08 RM-159 A5.01), formatted the memory card, installed Nokia Maps 2.0 (v2.0wk21b02), started it (in order for MapLoader to work properly), installed MapLoader 1.3.8, installed the swiss and german maps via MapLoader (the files are definitively in the 'cities' directory on the memory card), rebooted the phone then started the maps application again. The GPS works find but no map is displayed (even though I'm in Switzerland, everything is just green background, no matter what kind of view (satellite, hybrid, 3d, normal) I choose.
What's wrong? Bad quality assurance?

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 needtogetfit 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.

N95 v21.0.016 after using Nokia Maps 2.0 Beta on v...

After updating software Nokia Maps returns to v1.2 wk48 b01 and of course maps in E:/Cities need to be deleted and old maps downloaded using Maploader v1.3 after running Nokia Maps to define folder structure. However on a microSDHC with 708.5Mb space left for maps(Maploader definition) it allows me to download and install a 20Mb map but after downloading a further 120Mb map it won't let it install with the message "Your local drive might be full or your access rights are insufficient".
This is of course great news when you've wasted about an hour downloading it!

Why did you not choose to stay with the 2.0 Beta version?
Hi harrykaa
Essentially so that I am aware of the problems (if any) experienced by users of N95 with the version of Nokia Maps pre-installed in v21.0.016
The answer to my problem was to replace the existing "diskcache" folder in "Cities" with one I found on an older memory card, just wish I had thought of this solution sooner.

Nokia Maps/ N95: Support for network links?

Hello,
I have a GPS tracker device I would like to monitor in Nokia N95's maps. On PC I am using Google Maps with a network link, to see it's position in real time.
Does Nokia Maps support network links like in Google Earth?
Feel free to try - here's a sample URL from TrackingTheWorld:
http://trackingtheworld.com.r.seekdotnet.com/images/260156.kml
It should look something like this:

The beta has been out for your phone for a while now and licenses from previous versions do work with the beta.
You need to ask about availability of the final product on the maps 3 beta forum. You will most likely will not get an official answer here.
