N97 nokia maps problem

hi everyone..
i desperately need some help here..
I've recently had my n97 software reflashed by a service centre as it kept crashing and was running really slowly. it's got the latest firmware on it but for some reason i can't download the new nokia maps v3. I'm still stuck with the **bleep** v1!
Called Nokia.. they promised a call back within 48 hours.. that was a week ago! Can anybody here help?
Thanks in advance.
Solved!

If you can't update your software using Nokia Software Updater, then use OTA SW Updates on phone then the N97 mini version , which you can download to pc then drag and drop to phone will work fine, honestly, I've used it before and all the people I've suggested it to in the past have had no problems

  • N97 Nokia maps "System error" / google maps won't ...

    Since my N97 was unboxed Nokia maps has refused to load, it just beeps and says "System error". That's it! Any clues on how to get this working? It's pretty annoying as it's one feature I was looking forward to using.
    Funnily enough I installed google maps and that won't open either, but there's no error message, it just makes the screen blink once then back to the menu.
    Any advice appreciated

  • Nokia Maps & problem with '#' button

    It looks like my '#' button changed its working in the Nokia Maps application. The pressing causes unpress and vice versa. So, when I release the button, it keeps zooming out until I press it again. Strange, because it works incorrectly only in this application.
    Maybe someone clever could give me a hint to solve my problem?
    I can observe it in the newest version of Nokia Maps and hard reset doesn't solve my problem.
    Please for some clues.

    Is it just a problem in the maps application? It sounds rather odd... the button may be sticking, so I'd recommend getting it to your nearest Nokia Service Centre as soon as possible

  • N97 Nokia Map

    Hi guys,
    Anyone know the application name list in the Installed Application:
    (Setting --> Application MGR --> Installed apps.)
    Nokia Map (7MB)
    I uninstalled this application call Nokia Map and I free 7MB from the C.
    But my MAP icon still found in the application menu and the MAP is still working fine.
    Ohhhh dear, what had I done ?
    I also don't know ........
    This morning I notice the latest update of OVI MAP (9MB).
    After I download the update from OVI and installed, the Nokia Map is appear in the Installed apps. list again with 7MB. shhhhhh
    ** the goal is to free more memory of my N97, I might uninstall all the application until the phone is NO MORE MEMORY FULL issue. 
    Best regards
    Anderson

    Despite the phone being short of RAM you DO need about 20 meg free on C for the phone to run reasonably quickley, there are 100's of threads advising on this, Opera Mini is NOT a memory hog (although Opera Mobile is) there is no need for an anti virus on a symbian phone it is simply a waste of space and resources. Do a search on the forum for optimising memory you will get lots of advice.

  • Nokia Maps Problem

    Hi there
    Since Ive got my phone, Nokia Maps has never worked. My screen currently sits on green, and with the logo above the Exit button flashing three orange lights... it just doesnt seem to connect
    Im in Northern Ireland - would this affect it? Do I need to install or download anything?
    Thanks for any help in advance
    PS : I have the Nokia N95 8GB
    Message Edited by soupyjnr on 08-May-2008 07:06 PM

    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

    Hi Nick,
    Not certain what is causing the problem, but I do know that your phone needs to download maps, so you should connect using GPRS or Wifi to download the maps and then you should have maps for your locality, but you will need to connect again if you move outside of the locality. The best advise I would say is to get an internet add on for your phone so you won't be charged extra.
    you may be able to download maps and load them on also. You may also need to turn off the network assisted GPS so you are only using the built in GPS not the internet to find where you are.

  • Nokia N82 nokia maps problem

    I've bought my new Nokia N82 about 2 days ago, and have already got a problem which bothers me a lot.
    Basically whenever I open nokia maps, it freezes the whole phone.
    I can't even turn the phone off, so have to take the battery out to restart the phone again.
    The phone has got the latest firmware on it so not really quite sure what to do.
    Is it possible to reinstall nokia maps. If so, could someone let me know how.
    If not, any other solutions.
    If this has been answered anywhere else in the forum please let me know where it is
    Cheers

  • N96 Nokia maps problem

    I've had my N96 since October, and have previously used nokia maps without any problems. Recently it won't work and asks me to download the latest version, which I've done & installed, but I can't find the installation on my phone, and when I try to load the maps app from the old icon it continues to prompt me to download the latest version.
    I tried to remove the old version, but it will not completely remove, and brings up error messages.
    What am I doing wrong? How do I install the latest version of maps?

    Hi chris_m182
    Apart from need to backup essential data, you may need to carry out a reset by inputting *#7370# on standby screen followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code) unless altered by yourself. As your N96 has UDP = User data preservation, you could possibly need to re-format C:\DRIVE by carrying out the "Three finger reset" as detailed in Paragraph 45 of FAQ to Nokia Software Updater here:http://europe.nokia.com/A4577229#faq45 if former method doesn't resolve issue.

  • N73 - Nokia Maps problem downloading maps - Vodafo...

    I h´ave the N73 (black edition) and i "use vodafone live!" for internet acess
    please someone help me to make work the aplication "nokia map", using "vodafone life! - from portugal vodafone"
    I dont have GPS
    I live in portugal
    I use vodafone
    I use for internet "vodafone life!"

    --> on the pc, select the map and load it into your phone or memory card
    and i think, in order for you to navigate using external gps receiver, after 3 days, you need to buy a license for it.. or it will stop working
    you can use bluetooth GPS receiver (external).
    However you can use Tomtom and in simulate mode.

  • Nokia map problems

    Hi guys ,
    i hav downloaded the maps into my N73 . But everytime i start nokia map, dere is no map . onli green background. can access the options ,but then i scroll left rite up down oso cant find a single map.
    i hav download sg , malaysia map into it. Must it work wif a bluetooth GPS or can it work alone .
    I dun nid the gps still i noe the place i am in .
    Anyone encounter this prob?
    Solved!

    This is what you have to do. Since you have downloaded maps for Malaysia and sg, you have to tell maps to position you at a location that is covered by the map. At the moment the phone could think you are in Finland, hence no map.
    So what you do is run Maps, goto Options>Find Place>Address. Now type an adress in singapore for instance then goto options>search. Select and you should see the location on the sg map.

  • Nokia Maps Problem, holes in the offline map

    I habe a Nokia N9, updated to the newest Firmware (including the apps)

    there is a nice Highway but in the center parts of the map is missing so it routes me around it !!!!!!!

    @nobs
    Presumably you have tried both using Maploader upon N9 and Nokia Suite? When new mapping was released 17/12/2012 just followed advice to update existing ones, although do remember it timing out and have to re-start downloading process several times.
    As map folder structure upon N9 remains the same as Symbian it would be possible to manually install decompressed .zip for particular region if all else fails. Whilst not aware of any problems with latest 00.02.47.103 map data upon N9, be aware that this update has caused issues for Symbian devices by crippling "Offline" navigation.

  • N97 mini maps problem !

    hi all, i have a n97 mini and i hard formated it then i loaded all software now i can't enter my maps, after i open, it s closing in 1-2 seconds i don't understand what's going on :/ pls help help help me

    @behzatkara
    Welcome to the forum!
    Regrettably neither of the two previous posts appear to address your issue with one under the misapprehension that you are using N97 where phone memory is certainly a problem instead of N97 Mini in question.
    It is more likely here that you have corrupt map data, which is the commonest  cause of OVI Maps crashing upon opening! When you updated OVI Maps application to latest v3.06 it needs to delete previous 0.1.25.114 map data used by v3.04 to make way for 0.2.42.122 map set. Whilst there is a message saying that old map data will need to be removed, it requires confirmation by the user. 
    Suggest that you try deleting E:\Cities + .qf file, re-start OVI Maps application upon device to re-initialise application and re-create necessary folder structure. You now have option of downloading regional maps using either "Update" feature within application upon device via WLAN access point or use OVI Suite > Maps as previously if so preferred.

  • N97 nokia messaging problem

    hey all relatively new poster here needing some help from the experieneces these pages offer.
    ive tried contacting nokia about this but every time i fill the contact us form in my username isnt reconized so i cant send anything to them.......very frustrating indeed.
    i for some reason cannot recieve or send emails anymore with my nokia messaging app. it suddenly stopped working on the 7th of july and since then nothing works.
    ive had countless problems with this device that ive managed to fix myself every time except this so im hoping someon else can fill the gaps in for me this time.
    my device should be fully up to date in every way so i dont have anything i can install. 
    thanks for reading. 

    Think you may find it is a memory issue, the phone has very little free memory on C and applications like messaging and mail for exchange will not run successfully on them, suggest you uninstall and use standard email client !
