Nokia Map Server Down ?

Dear all,
I using Nokia 5230 from Malaysia. Latest compatible firmware v50.0.001, Ovi Suite 3.1.1.78 and Ovi Map 3.06(637) installed. I can't seem to able to connect to the Nokia Map Service to download latest map and voice pack for the past few days, morning until night (ie. couldnt connect to the service) using Ovi Suite.
I had no problem downloading map using previous version (firmware v40.0.001, Ovi Suite 2.2.1.23 and Ovi Map 3.06(637)) few month ago. Anyone having the same connection problem ? Thanks for any feedback !

Gee, thank for the info. Will try again after work
I try to install map the through direct server link (ie. http://static.s2g.gate5.de/map5/....) but cant copy to cities/diskcache/ in the memory card because the folder not yet created

this is very seriously problem,because i have problem to connect to map server,a view minute download, it seem have speed 2,4 mbps, but it stop and say, "you work in ofline mode". Any body can help me for solve this problem???

Need to know what device you are using here as in a last resort you could always download map data as compressed .zip, decompress it and install manually. It sounds as if you have a very poor internet connection and it is timing out.

Nokia Email - Server Down ?

Hello,
as a new user of Nokia Email. I got great expectation from this service and software !
It worked great for 30 minutes unless. It asked my password and get stuck on it.
Going back on my laptop: I have also got the "Impossible to Log In Syndrom" on my computer.
So I went to bed and in the morning the Log In worked on the computer.
But my E61 is still stuck on the password. I let him try for quite a long time for nothing.
So, I have tried to re install the software.
Even cancelled my Nokia Email account and reinstall the software...
Now the Nokia is in configuration mode and is stuck trying to reach the server for 20 minutes... :-(
Is there any server log somewhere ?
Should I give up ?
Best regards
Nemo

I have deleted my Nokia Mail account again create another one again, wait for a while downloaded the very last version 1.1.
And still got the same answer after installing and launching parameter:
Server are not accessible for now. Try again later...

Nokia Maps full postcode search stopped working?

I have nokia maps with navigation upgrade on an N95 8GB. It's always been great and allows for a full 7 digit postcode search if you allow it to go online.
However, this has now suddenly stopped working and only does the normal 3 or 4 digit search that it would do if not online. For me this makes the sat nav useless as it can never find addresses accurately.
Anyone else had this problem?
I formatted the mass memory the other day as it was slow and had to reload the actual maps (the program is in the phone memory). Could this have affected it?
Thanks!

I received a reply to my email to Nokia after 3 days.
They suggested:
1) I ensure I have installed the latest version of Nokia Maps, which is a bit dumb considering it is built into my firmware.
2) Take my phone to a Nokia service centre.
FYI
I have now done a hard reset and still no joy. This is a very weird problem. Given that all firmware, memory and s/w have been completely reset the problem must lie elsewhere.
I see three remaining options:
1) My mobile account is blocked from accessing the Nokia Map server - unlikely
2) It is some kind of hardware fault - possible
3) Even a hard reset does not clear some config problem from the phone - possible

Nokia Maps on 5800 XM keeps shutting down on start...

Hi everyone,
I bought the Nokia 5800 XM two weeks ago, and have been playing around with it. The Nokia maps application is really cool until recently, when everytime i start the maps application, it just shuts down automatically. I never get a chance to connect to the internet with it, or navigate using the touch screen. I recently installed nokia map loader as well and installed some maps, but nothing helps. The application keeps shutting down every time i start it. I also did a software reinstall using nokia software updater, but that didn't help either.
If anyone has this problem or knows how to solve it, i would be really thankful!

I am having the same problem. I've tried reloading from the Nokia site but the version there won't work - it says it is not compatible with the phone even though I selected the 5800 from the available phones list. No idea about a solution though.

Why did Nokia dumb down Nokia Maps with each new v...

I recently did a YouTube video comparing Nokia Maps to the GPS apps available on the iPhone AND Nokia Maps on Nokia N86 8MP.
The interesting part is that how many more functions does N86's old Nokia Maps have over the new Nokia Maps on the N8.
Lots of functionality has been lost, while all the other GPS apps got new functionality, Nokia Maps is instead dropping functionality left and right.
Why Nokia?
Here's the video(s) BTW, if you are familiar with Nokia Maps, you might want to start watching from the middle of Part 3.

Thanks! And I really hope Nokia will take note and integrate those old and useful features back into Nokia Maps.

Oh, for sure I agree noone is pushing me, but the problem is... there's not a new-technology minimalist phone out there, as far as I know.
I want a C2-01.5 like I have now, but with a faster processor and more memory. Same size, a bigger (less edge margin) screen'd be nice, but whatever. A bigger battery and perhaps an even skinnier/smaller form factor. I want the OS to be super configurable and have options on top of options on top of options (and if it let me disable/hide the things I don't use - to reduce the clutter of the menus, I'd be in frickin' heaven!). Finally, I want them to put WiFi into this simple small stick. And the simplicity of the basic Nokia keyboard layout (with slightly raised keys {great job on the C2-01.5} that I can feel with my fingers) would be awesome too. If anyone can think of something like this described dream-phone, please do let me know. I'll build you a small temple and pray at it weekly. As far as it goes with this experiment, I'm sending the N301 back. And I had such high hopes!
Funny and sad at the same time.
Thanks, guys!

Nokia maps suite.. NEW

Nokia Maps Suite: Everything You Need To Know
The new ‘Nokia Maps Suite’ was arguably the biggest application release at the opening day of Nokia World 2011. The new suite brings ‘the future of location-based services’ to your fingertips. Designed with the commuter in mind, the new location software is the best way to travel on trams, trains and buses with worldwide coverage. Perfect for when the train, bus and tram break down and you need to use Nokia Maps to find your way on foot. Sharing is also a core competence of the new suite, the ‘Pulse’ application allows you to check in with friends and family on the go, presumably this is to ensure your finger is always on the pulse!
We are going to take you on a wild rollercoaster ride that explores the four main location-based software groups that complete the Nokia Maps Suite. Here is a quick overview for those that like to keep it top line, before we delve deep into each group:
1. Live View: A new augmented-reality browser that turns your phone’s camera viewfinder to help you spot places of interest.
2. Pulse: Enables you to privately share and discuss your location, photos and mood with friends and family.
3. Public Transport: You don’t need to work for CSI:Miami to solve this one. The Public Transport app tells you the most efficient way to get from A to B using public transport anywhere in the world.
4. Places: Once again, the clue is in the name, this app quite simply helps you discover places around you.
Nokia Live View via Nokia
Now it’s time to do some delving.
Live View
The above image highlights the most exciting feature of the Nokia Maps Suite. Some of you may have never used augumented-reality on your smart-phones before, so we thought we would give you a quick augumented-reality check. Augumented-reality essentially merges the worlds of online and offline. Take the street you work, live or study on, if you were to open the app and point the camera down the street, you would not only see the physical elements of a shop, restaurant or bar but you would see the virtual elements of the shop superimposed on your screen. By ‘virtual’ we mean the information about the shop that is available online. So this may include the shops name, the products it sells, the opening times and its exact location from where you are standing. Sounds pretty futuristic doesn’t it! If that explanation didn’t make any sense then here is a definition of augumented-reality. Augmented-reality used to be offered as a stand-alone application but now it joins the new Nokia Maps family.
If you are not comfortable using the camera view you can always switch to a list or map view of your surrounding area, but we think that takes the fun out of the whole app. There is also a great feature that lets you browse famous places from around the world.
Pulse
Pulse is a great new feature that lets you connect with friends and family in a private capacity. You don’t need to belong to a social network, you simply add your location with a post and everyone else you have added will see your latest activity. Your post could include text, a photo or your location. The app is private by default so there is no need to build a 10ft wall around your personal details. Nokia Pulse is also integrated with maps so as soon as a friend checks in nearby you can find out exactly how to reach them, or alternatively, exactly how to avoid them! Check out the video below, it explains everything about Pulse:
Nokia Pulse via Nokia
Public Transport
This is a great app for those of us travelling long distances on public transport everyday. It neatly combines several methods of public transport into one easy interface. So, if you know you might need to take a bus, tram or train on your travels, then all of the proposed timings, locations and routes required will be displayed. You may even be directed to walk some of the journey to reach your next form of public transport, unlucky! The app has ‘up-to-the-minute’ updates on all bus and tram routes in 45 cities and the device tracks public transportation directly on a mobile device in more than 430 cities worldwide.
Nokia Transport via Nokia
Places
Need to find a last minute Michelin Star restaurant for some new clients? Forgotten to get your wife flowers on your wedding anniversary? Or are you just bored of going to the same burger bar every Friday lunchtime? Well the Places app is a fantastic solution to these problems because it gets you to your desired and undiscovered destinations faster and more efficiently. You can check ratings and reviews for restaurants you are unsure about in a foreign land, get directional advice to the location you have chosen and then find the nearest taxi rank to grab a trip home. The software is designed to help you find locations in your local area that you may have previously been unaware of. Who knows, that burger bar you didnt know about behind your office could be alot tastier and better value for money than the one right in front of your office!
So, there you have it, our take on the new Nokia Maps software. We can’t wait to put some of these technologies into practice, in the meantime though we want you to tell us whether this sounds like the future of mapping and if not, why!? Do share!
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
Now using the Lumia 1520

OK I feel silly now. I just realized that the links to donwload maps manually work now...
I will try again to add them through Nokia Suite in 10 hours and I will use manual download if it does not work.
Thanks anyway and I advise everyone to download the whole world to be prepared for the moment where the server is unplugged.

Nokia Maps - Postcode search is no longer working

Please help!
The is a post on the navigation and GPS section but I wanted to see if anyone on the main forum has experienced the problem, because we cannot find a solution.
Up until the last few days whilst online when I searched for a post code on Nokia Maps the result was the full post code location. When I did the same search offline the result was truncated. ie bp11 4re became bp11 4.
This is pretty useless in trying to locate anything using a post code.
Today I noticed that whether I was online or not, the post code search always produced the shortened result.
I have now searched on line and found nothing save for the post mentioned above. I have performed a hard reset and have the latest firmware for my phone (v12) I also have the latest version of maps v1.2.
Please can someone shed some light on why this search facility has changed. Could it be something to do with the Nokia Server?

A late reply but in case somebody is looking:
/t5/Nseries-and-Symbian-Smartphones/Nokia-Maps-Postcode-search-is-no-longer-working/td-p/244168
The last one suggests that a full postcode search needs an internet connection.
This lead to a solution!
In Maps, under Settings / General / Connection you have a choice of Online or Offline. If you have Offline then the search is limited as described, with the last two postcode characters ignored. If you have Online selected, then it works properly.
So even though Nokia Maps are offline maps, the full postcode search is done on their server.

Nokia Map and Drive+ Beta on Lumina 920 Feedback

So I took my new phone down to MD/DC area in the last few days and here are a few things that I would like to post as my feedback on what would be nice to have, fixes, etc. [I used both my new Lumia 920 and my wife's Samsung Galaxy Note 2 as comparsion).
1. Highest priority for me is that the routes from Here.net need to be able to sync down to the phone. Nothing more is more important then this because when you have a custom route that you want to use (for example, to route around high traffic or potential high traffic areas).
2. Extremely disappointed that a new road in MD (MD 200) was not used by the Drive+ and didn't even show up on the map on my Lumia 920 while it was used and did show up on Google map. This road is a toll road and is over a year old already. [And yes, I have enabled toll road in the navigation as well as selected 'faster route' as the routing to use under smart routing]. I cannot stressed how disappointed I am to not see Nokia Map have this route at all.
3. Allow route changes on the Nokia Drive+ app. As good as pre-planned trip and using Here.net, there are just tmes that it's much better to allow us to change the route based on latest condition.
4. Never once did I see ANY traffic updates at all on both the Map and Drive+ Beta. When it does shows on my wife's Google's Map/Navigation.
5. I love that under Drive+, it tells you which lane to get into ahead of when you need to make a turn or merge onto another way. However, the flip side of that is that there's no way to know which road you're currently on. This is probably more important for when you're in an area with a lot of highway/local way intersections. Also, it would be great if it also will display the next major 'road' that you will be getting onto.
So far I'm happy with some of the functionality and disappointed in some of Nokia Map and Drive+ and I have about a week left to decide to either stay with WP9 and Nokia or do I want to switch back to Android and Google Map.

A very strange thing happening with Nokia Map Load...

I am trying to load new maps onto my x6.
When I click on Nokia Map Loader it tells me that another instance of the programme is running and that I need to close that one down first.
But this is not the case. I have no other programmes running.
It mentioned that I might have the maps updater programme running. Again that wasn't true.
I uninstalled both and started again.
Same problem.
I try launching map loader through pc suite. Same thing.
I am really flummoxed and I hope someone can help.
Thank you.

Did you set up "hot corners" for Expose?
I bet you have the up/left corner set for "Application Windows" then when you move over and have no apps open you get the warning noise. When you move slowly you just don't hit the corner to triger expose

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.

Map Loader not connect to map server

Hi there,
i have a Problem with Nokia Map Loader. (it doenst matter which version, I tried . and 2.0 and 3.0)
When i start the map loader i get this Problem:
"Connection to the map server has been interrupted."
I do not use any proxy.
What is the solution of the Problem, i want to use my navigation on my Nokia e72 device
kind regards

Have you tried using OVI Suite which is now the recommended way of adding maps?
Failing that as E72 uses OVI Maps v3.04 you could look at post by ovikovi to download maps directly: /t5/Maps-Navigation-and-GPS/newest-Nokia-Ovi-Maps-0-1-25-114-manual-download/m-p/778870/highlight/tr...

E71 and Nokia Maps

I am trying to compare the 2 Satnav systems on my phone......
Vodafone SatNav gives me 18 month subscription with voice navigation
Nokia Maps giives me 3 month subscription withOUT voice nav. (I am only a week or so into the 3 months)
If I go to download voice it prompts me to pay but doesnt say how much ??
Isnt there voice trial ubscription ??

The next time you try, when you get the prompt to pay, just click on the update option. All Nokia Subscriptions come with voice and so should yours. ALl you need to do is to update your license details by clicking on the update option.
You have to be online to allow Nokia Maps to access the license server when doing this.

Connection to the Ovi Maps server times out

Hi,
I've been having a lot of problems downloading individual country maps using the Ovi Suite. Occasionally it works, but 95% of the time, the download seems to start ("Preparing") but after a few minutes, I get the following error message:
"Connection timeout
The connection to the Ovi Maps server timed out.
Try again."
System: Windows 7, Nokia Ovi Suite 2.2.0.241. My internet connection is fine.
Phone: E52, Ovi Maps v. 3.03
Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks,
mic

Hi Schorly,
You are right that when you try for maps update, the OVi Suite application connects to the maps server thru' you PC internet connection if you have already connected your PC to the internet.
There is no settings needs to be configured in OVi suite if you have your PC connected to internet already excluding the proxy user name and password entry (applies only if you need to authenticate yourself to the proxy server, leave it blank if not needed) under OViSuite -> Tools -> Options -> General
In the OVi Suite application login to your OVi account on the right hand side top of the window to make sure that your OVi suite application connects thru' your internet connection.
In case if you still have the issue of connecting to the maps server, you may have to re-try later as the server might get timed out due to overload

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 …
