Nokia maps on Windows phone 8 - detail and resolut...

Hello,
I can't really use nokia maps with satellite view, since I will nearly always get low resolution landsat image material instead of the high res images I've already known from windows phone 7.5 and bing maps (I thought bing and nokia were working together??). --> compare attachments: nokia maps on wp8 vs. maps.bing.com
Blending between zoom levels is a catastrophe (compare to google maps, that's the way it should be done, lower zoom levels interpolated from higher zoom levels). Often some layers or the whole material is missing and you will get maps like the attached one, even after some minutes of loading (wlan or 3g/LTE... doesn't matter).

Because I haven't written it in the upper posting: The shown map area is exactly the same.

Windows Phone sync and transfer options

This post explains the options available for synchronizing and transferring contacts, calendar and tasks from your Windows PC to a Nokia Lumia with Windows Phone.
How Contacts, Calendar and Tasks are synchronized between a Windows PC and a Lumia family phone depends on which software is used on the PC
If a S40, S60 or Symbian Nokia phone was used before contacts, calendar and tasks can be synchronized between this phone and your PC using Nokia Suite with the following:
Microsoft Windows 7 contacts
Microsoft Windows Vista calendar and contacts
Microsoft Outlook 2002, 2003, 2007, 2010
Microsoft Outlook Express
Mozilla Thunderbird
Nokia Suite (v3.6.x and later) allows for an easy transfer of contacts, calendar and photos to your Nokia Lumia Windows Phone via SkyDrive.
Here's how this feature works;
Connect your Nokia S40, S60 or Nokia Belle phone to your PC using the USB cable.
After Nokia Suite is started and your phone shows as connected select Tools>Upload to SkyDrive and follow the on screen instructions. If you do not have one yet you will have to create a Microsoft account which has a SkyDrive attached to it. You can create such account here.
You will now have to reset your Nokia Lumia Windows Phone. Doing so will erase all content from the phone and return it to it's 'out of the box' state. Make sure you have synced any media files to your PC (Zune for WP7.x devices / copy them through explorer on WP8.x devices) or Mac(Connector). You can sync these back after the reset. When finished reset your Nokia Lumia Windows Phone using Settings>about>reset your phone.
Go through the Device First Use sequence and when asked enter your Microsoft Account used to save the content from Nokia Suite. When the setup has finished your will find your contacts, calendar and photos have all transferred to your Lumia. These will also be available through your Microsoft account through the web interface. The list of installed (paid) apps is also restored and the phone will start downloading these once the restore is complete. You can switch to WiFi for this if you have access.
It is important to note this transfer will only work to the Nokia Lumia at the Device First Use sequence (after a reset). If you have your Lumia setup it will not look for or sync the information copied to SkyDrive through Nokia Suite.
SMS message can not be transferred directly, but you can export all messages in Nokia Suite (Messaging>File/Export all text messages) and open the resulting Comma Separated File (.csv) in Excel or OpenOffice Calc to create an Excel sheet (.xls file) this can then be copied to your SkyDrive and opened from the Office app. You could also use a tool to create separate files from the exported .CSV file and copy all of these to SkyDrive.
If a Microsoft Exchange server is used an Outlook account is created on the Lumia. This is done through 'Settings > email + accounts >add an account > Outlook'. The following settings are required. Usually these can be obtained from the system administrator for the Exchange server:
Mail address
User name (usually the same as the login name for the business PC)
Password (usually the same as the password for the business PC)
The Microsoft Exchange server Domain
The address for the Microsoft Exchange server
If Microsoft Outlook is used for private mail account(s) the Outlook Hotmail Connector needs to be installed to synchronize with the primary Microsoft Account and with the Lumia.
The mail account needs to be set up as a separate mail account through:
'Settings > email + accounts >add an account > other account'
More information on setting up a mail account can be found here.
A useful tool for setting up the Outlook Hotmail Connector can be found here.
Additional Microsoft support pages for contacts and calendar.
If Windows Mail, a part of Windows Essentials, is used contacts, calendar and tasks are synchronized directly with the Lumia as long as you log in to Windows Mail using the same primary Microsoft Account as the one which is used on the Lumia. Contacts and/or calendar can be imported in to Windows Mail as follows:
Microsoft Windows 7 contacts, Microsoft Windows Vista contacts (and calendar)
Open Windows live mail
Go to contacts
Click on import
Import from current Windows user
Mozilla Thunderbird
Use the Hotmail extension for Thunderbird
Export contacts and import into Windows Mail
I hope this is helpful

Managing Windows Phone's and Symantec Code Signing certificate

Hi,
We need to renew the code signing certificate from Symantec. However, we only use it to manage the Windows Phone devices and don't publish apps. Do we still need to spend $300 on renewing this cert? Can't I manage them for free like our iOS and Android devices?

You REQUIRE the Symantec Code Signing Certificate to manage Windows Phones via Windows Intune. This is a requirement of the device rather than the management solution.
You CAN manage Windows Phones without this cert using only Exchange active sync management in Intune. However this management is very basic and has no advanced features (basically the features provided by Exchange rather than Intune).

Windows Phone 8 and Windows InTune

I just signed up for a 30-day Windows InTune trial account and I'm in the process of setting up mobile device management for Windows Phone 8 devices. After looking through the documentation, I just want to verify that
before I can even enroll any Windows Phone 8 devices for management in Windows InTune I need to...
1. Purchase a $99/yr subscription to establish a Company (not an Individual) account on the Windows Phone Dev Center (to get a Symantec Publishing ID)
2. Purchase a $299/yr subscription for a Symantec Enterprise Mobile Code Signing Certificate to obtain an enterprise mobile code-signing certificate using the Symantec Publishing ID from step #1
3. Download, sign the Company Portal App with the XapSignTool tool using the Symantec enterprise mobile code-signing certificate, and upload the app back into Windows InTune
Is this correct?
Regards,
JJ

An important update to this thread - as of November 2014, you can now enroll Windows Phone 8.1 devices for management in Windows Intune without having to purchase a Symantec certificate. For details, see
http://blogs.technet.com/b/microsoftintune/archive/2014/11/18/improvements-to-the-windows-phone-8-1-enrollment-process-for-intune.aspx
As of 4/2/2015, hybrid configurations still require a Symantec cert to enroll a phone, but you can get the Company Portal app for WinPhone in the Store and you can send deep links and web links to hybrid phones via that portal. The ability to enroll WinPhone
8.1 in hybrid without a cert is in the works. Stay tuned to the Intune blog for the announcement when that comes. Or you can ping me by replying to this thread, and ask me if certless hybrid is available yet.

Nokia Drive on Windows Phone- the future. What can...

Hi Everyone,
The question is obviously pointed towards Nokia representatives here, but we're all probably interested in, more or less. So:
What can we expect from Nokia Drive (and Maps...) in future? Are we gonna be given back at least the basic functionality of what there was/is in Symbian Maps version?
Precisely, I mean:
- Destination selection basing on tapping the screen + FAVORITES
- Route calculation customization (fast, short etc.)
- Advanced planning, including multiple points on the route
- POI handling in an up-to-date manner (menus and lists of POIs)
- ... integration with ovi.com web service
I'm still hesitating between new Lumias and Android phones and, to be honest, Nokia Drive seems to be the deal breaker for me.
Another reason for asking is that, while we have a lot of info about Nokia Drive 3.0 featuring live traffic and all the magic stuff, that info still doesn't say anything about re-introducting the very basic functions of navi system.
I can imagine that maanny people think the same way and aren't happy with the navigation functionality drop with the WP introduction to Nokia.
Thanks!
Michael

@jamiekt
No reason to assume that they won't get updated 3 - 4 times a year as Nokia Maps upon Symbian OS devices do currently.

Nokia Maps 3.0 on 5800 and problem with external G...

Hi,
I have just updated Nokia Maps to version 3.0, but unfortunately, when I try to use an external GPS (as I always did successfully with Nokia Maps 2.0), the menu asking for GPS device association continues to pop-up and it makes Nokia Maps 3.0 completely unusable. Things work fine with the built-in GPS, but I need the external one to save power and in situations that are particularly cumbersome such as among skyscrapers. What should I do? Another thing: I have already a Drive licence, but I cannot see the 3D buildings: what should I do? Thanks!

Hi lorluin
You must have enabled it by going to Settings > Phone > Application Settings > Positioning > Positioning methods and enable "Bluetooth GPS". Does it make any difference if you open GPS Data application and leave it running and then start OVI Maps?
Are you "On" or "Offline" when trying to see 3D buildings?
Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

Issues with 32GB micro SD with Windows Phone 8 and Lumia 810

I bought 32 GB micro SDHC card (Sandisk) that causes issues such as:
(1) tap Settings - then blank screen - then go back to Home
(2) when shutting down WP8, it says "goodbye" forever and it does not go away. I have to detach the battery.
(3) Occasional freezes - need to do step (2) to force reboot
(4) Go to music > songs, causes OS to freeze
(5) Go to music > albums, select one and cannot play - OS freeze
I have huge library of MP3 and WMA that I want to keep them in the SD. I did it in 2 ways:
(A)
Attach the micro SD (with adapter) into Windows PC, copy music folders to SD with Windows Explorer.
(B) Attach the micro SD into Lumia 810, connect it to Windows PC. Windows detects the hardware, then using Windows Explorer, copy he music folders to Lumia 810 > SD card > Music.
When I tried (A), 5 above issues came up. WP8 reported the SD card was corrupted. I run chkdsk to fix the SD card, but the 5 issues persisted after I inserted the SD. I formatted the SD card, and repeat
(A), but the 5 issues persisted.
I tried (B), then the copying process stopped in the middle. Windows Explorer reported error cannot copy file XXX. Then the 5 issues came up again.
I am running out of ideas. What's wrong? SD, Lumia, or WP8? What should I do to have huge music files on the phone? Sorry, I can't play from the cloud.

How to start a loop back proxy in Windows Phone 8 and have all app and internet traffic routed via it

I want to develop a proxy in windows phone 8 that will handle all data traffic emanating from phone(i.e. browser and Apps). The following procedures were carried out
a) Edited the Wifi settings http proxy and port to the loop back proxy running in the phone(i.e. 127.0.0.1) and the port in which we brought up the loop back proxy
b) We browsed pages and no request landed on the loop back proxy in the phone
Loop back proxy in phone is built using StreamSocketListener
Another observation is that:
If we edit Wifi settings http proxy and port to a http/https proxy running on server then when we browse pages from windows phone we are getting the requests to server. Why is this difference?
Is there a limitation to run http/https proxy on mobile phone as loop back proxy.
But there are apps in the market for windows phone that behaves as HTTP proxy like
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/smartproxy/75da629b-c0f3-4999-86a3-9559181d1299
Any help on the same would be appreciated

Hi,
Thanks for your reply and we have used StreamSocketListener waiting on a port and ip is given as loopback.The same settings are done for Wifi access point but when we browse any page in IE the requests are not landing on to the loop back proxy.Any idea on
the same would be highly appreciated

E90 nokia maps 2, freezing phone?

hi, i am trying to use nokia maps 2 in an e90 device. it has happened twice, the first time it asked what to do, i choose look for wlan connection and it froze there. i had to make a 'hard reset' (ie: remove the battery for a while, since it does not have reset button or hole). the second time it appeared the globe with a loding bar at the botton, it got to 90% and is frozen there (i will leave it overnight like this, just in case). i dont know if it is downloading something or whatever, there is no download indicator or anything, so i have no clue whats it doing so far. i try to change to something else with the menu button, i try to turn it off but nothing seems to respond. any pointers?

Try to restore factory settings by going to Menu > tools > settings > general > factory settings.
Or simply key in *#7780# when on stand by.
The code by default is 12345.
If this does not help then you may wanna try to re-install the maps application by going to http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/download
Download and install the latest version as yours might have been corrupted.

For help with the WPF side of this you'll be better off posting in the WPF forum.
There isn't any remote control system built in, but you can use standard networking to implement your own. From the phone side take a look at the
Connecting to networks and web services documentation. In particular, the
Adding support for networking and
Connecting with sockets sections are likely to get you on the right path.

Nokia Lumia 925 Windows phone keeps shutting down

     I have had a problem for the past 2 months, my Nokia Lumia 925 with Win 8.1 keeps shutting down spontaneously. (I did not have this problem before 8.1) This is my third phone in the last 2 months (warranty program keeps sending me replacements) and it shut down for the first time this morning. All 3 have developed the same problem, the phone will shut down spontaneously and the only way to start it up again is a soft reset (Volume down + Power for 15 seconds). I have had a total of 10-15 shutdowns between the 3 phones and this is a conservative estimate.
     I am thinking that this has to be a setting or an app that I use (and few others do) that is causing the shutdown since I have only seen a few other similar issues in the forums. Here are some of the basic facts about my situation and some of the actions I have taken:
              - I have wiped the phones repeatedly (3 phones wiped a total of 3 or 4 times not including the initial setup of the replacement phones, which is getting really old--really fast).
               - I have tried turning off NFC, but that obviously wasn't the issue because NFC was off this morning when it shut off.
                - I have tried trimming the screen protector/screen guard I installed as suggested in one of the other forums even though that seemed ridiculous (I think that was a different model phone too, but I gave it a shot)
I have not noticed any common occurrence such as
                           --when a certain app is running
                           --when it is on/off charger,
                           -- When the battery is full or low (it was 24% this morning).
               -I have 2 chargers, 3 if you include the car charger that I have never had to use due to great battery life.
               - I have called tech support several times, all AT&T can tell me is that this is not a known issue and I should wipe it again. Nokia says the same and that I should send it back to them for repairs. That seems fruitless to me because I have had 3 different phones, what are they going to repair that a new phone won't fix?
       It takes me 3 hours to reinstall and set up my apps, I am getting very frustrated. I really love the way this phone functions, the software is good, the screen is brilliant and very sensitive, the camera is great (although a bit slow), and the size and feel are perfect for me...I hope that someone here on the forums can help.
Thanks for your help in advance...

Hello, mariaadamsky.
We appreciate you reaching out to our community regarding your concern. You are using a Lumia 925 as well, correct? Did something happen to your phone that possibly caused such behavior? Did you try doing fixes on it?
Latest software released for Lumia phones is the Lumia Cyan. To confirm that you have it installed on your phone, go to Settings> extras+info. You can also try going to Settings> phone update> check for updates to check if there's an available update. Are your system apps also updated? While connected to WiFi, go to Store> ...> downloads to check for pending updates. Let's hope that the phone will not shut down while doing this process.
By the way, we can try other fixes that could help us identify the real cause of the issue. In case you wish to have it repaired in a Nokia Care Point, warranty claim may vary per region and Nokia does not have an international warranty. Also, creating a backup is a must to avoid data loss. Where did you buy the phone and where are you located right now? To know about the manufacturer's limited warranty, go here: http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/global/phones/guides/Nokia_Manufacturers_Limited_Warranty_with_W....
We look forward to your reply.
