[Nokia N8] Ovi Maps NOT using GPRS data

I recently updated the my Nokia N8 software to PR1.1
I had used Ovi Maps before and it was working properly. The GPRS data was being utilized for positioning. But after updating the software, the counter at the bottom remains 0.0kb and shows "Not connected symbol"
Here is the screenshots:

A bit off track.. but can you browse internet thru' your phone.. ? Just to confirm that the Access Point settings haven't been disturbed..as all the settings / configuration for the Maps applications seems to be OK to use the GPRS data..
. Even I had the same thought at first, so I already checked it before I sharted the topic and I even checked now just to be sure.
Yes, I CAN browse the internet, both with the Default browser AND with Opera Mobile.
Also, after I browse the net, I can confirm the data usage in the logs for each session.
But, when I use Ovi Maps, the session for "Vodafone live!" does exist in the log but the usage is 0kB (U/D).

Any particular reason for not upgrading OVI Maps to v3.06_10wk46 on your N8 as OVI Suite has been delivering this version for quite a while?
Here at my side, that update just doesn't show up in Ovi Suite.
I only see "Real Golf 2011" in the Install Device Application section of Ovi Suite.
Just to make sure, is this what you mean?

N900 OVI map not available to be download..?

Can I know where to download Nokia N900 OVI map..? Because I search allots of places but I still cannot get the map..Thks..

Hi
The way i did it yesterday, to update and install new maps, was to use the Nokia Ovi Suite on my computer, If you dont have this you can download it from a link on the Nokia site,http://www.nokia.co.uk/support/download-software/ovi-suite
Then simply open Ovi Suite on your computer, connect your N900 via USB, click on Maps on Ovi Suite, select the maps you want and download them,
The system first removes any old maps, then downloads to the computer, then transfers to N900, all very simple, but does take some time depending on how many countries you want to download. you can also add additional maps at any time,
Or you can download from the Ovi site just using your N900
Hope this helps, let me know if you require more

Any ideas greatly appreciated, it will save me a journey to the apple store

I have now solved it. I signed out of my iTunes account and then held down both the power buttons until the apple appeared. When I signed back in it started downloading.

When you double click the circle buttom, and the little bar pops up from what you have been using... is it using data while being in there? is it a good idea to minimize evertthing out of there often so its not using more data ? or does it not matter?

Not sure if it uses data, but that allows you to multitask. To save battery life you should close out of all the apps.

Populate ComboBox from database - NOT using Flex Data Services

Hi there,
We are using CF with Flex but are not using the Flex Data
Service. I'm very much a newb and I'm having trouble finding any
information on how to populate controles from a database without
using Flex Data Service. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
First I have a page... JobSearch.mxml that contains a combo
box that I want to populate with the job_id and job_title from a
MSSQL database.
In Flex in the RDS DataView I used the "Create CFC" Wizard
which generated "job.cfc" and "jobGateway.cfc". It also generated
"job.as".
The CF Function that selects the data appears to be defaulted
and called "load" and the .as function is called simply "job".
So, that all looks great. But I can't find any information on
what I need to have on my JobSearch.mxml to actually get this data
into the comboBox.
I did:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
[Bindable]
public var jobData:job = null;
]]>
</mx:Script>
And then:
<mx:ComboBox
text="{jobData.job_title}"></mx:ComboBox>
But I'm being told "Type was not found or was not a
complie-time constant: job"
I guess I'm missing something, or doing something way
wrong... I just don't know enough of Flex at this point to know
what it is.
Thanks!

Using php or asp is not an option, as we are a Cold Fusion
House.
I was looking at an article on Ben Forta's blog (
http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=e&entry=1786)
and following his example I did this... only it doesn't work:
I'm very very new to Flash and we are using ColdFusion but
are not using Flex Data Services. I've been trying to figure out
how to populate a combobox from a database and I'm just not having
any luck.
My project is called "PreTraffic". I have my main file as
"JobSearch.mxml" and a folder under the root named "cfc" with a
file called "job.cfc".
job.cfc contains the following code:
<cfcomponent>

<cffunction name="GetJob" access="remote"
returntype="query" output="false">
<cfset var job="">
<cfset var results="">
<cfquery datasource="discsdev" name="job">
SELECT job_id, job_title
FROM job
WHERE status = 'O'
ORDER BY job_title
</cfquery>
<cfquery dbtype="query" name="results">
SELECT job_title AS label, job_id AS data
FROM job
ORDER BY label
</cfquery>
<cfreturn results>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
And JobSearch.mxml has the following code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application
xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
xmlns="*"
layout="absolute"
backgroundGradientColors="[#ffffff, #d0d0d0]"
creationComplete="InitApp()">

<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
public function InitApp():void {
jobSvc.GetJob();

</mx:Script>

<mx:RemoteObject id="jobSvc" destination="PreTraffic"
showBusyCursor="true" />
<mx:VBox label="Job History" width="100%" height="100%"
x="10" y="92">
<mx:Label text="Search jobs by"/>
<mx:Form label="Task" width="100%">
<mx:FormItem label="Job Name:">
<mx:ComboBox id="jobNameCB"
dataProvider="{jobSvc.GetJob.results}"></mx:ComboBox>
</mx:FormItem>
</mx:Form>
<mx:HBox>
<mx:Button label="Search"/>
<mx:Button label="Clear"/>
</mx:HBox>
</mx:VBox>
</mx:Application>
My Compiler thingy points to:
-services
"/Volumes/flexwwwroot/WEB-INF/flex/job-services-config.xml" -locale
en_US
and job-services-config.xml contains the following code:
<destination id="PreTraffic">
<channels>
<channel ref="my-cfamf"/>
</channels>
<properties>
<source>flex.pretraffic.cfc.job</source>
<lowercase-keys>true</lowercase-keys>
</properties>
</destination>
Well, when I run the app... the combobox is not populated...
Can anyone help with what I've done wrong?
Thanks!

Ovi map not working in Nokia E63

I have tried to install OVI maps in my Nokia E63 phone, but it is showing as phone is not compatible for the same. Why maps is not compatible for E63 but is working for E55 or other old models. Can anyone tell me the solution so that i can also use navigation service in my phone as i have to travel regularly?

@meetkalsen10
Welcome to the forum!
Are you trying to install this version?
http://static.s2g.gate5.de/nokiamaps-client/nokia_maps_3.01_09wk44_b01_s60_3.1_lm_rom.sis
As E63 has no embedded GPS it would need Bluetooth GPS to act as navigator as network GPS is not accurate enough for this purpose.

First time using "Nokia N8 Ovi Map"

hello,
im first time using my n8 ovi map, and i wonder why it took hours for checking for my position,
after 2-3 hours of waiting, it still searching for my position. instead of keep waiting, i switch to walking mode, and set a destination, now it shows "waiting for GPS". i have been waiting for more than 1 hour, sadly it still showing "waiting for GPS". Anyone experiences this problem before? please provide me some solutions. thanks.

@NokiN8Silver
Welcome to the forum!
You might try as a temporary measure going to Menu > Settings > Application settings > Positioning > Positioning methods - only enable Integrated GPS then go outside away from tall buildings and it should lock on to satellites within 20 -30 minutes; once position established subsequent satellite lock on will be much more rapid.

I installed new version of OVI maps today.
when I clicked on "my position" , it is not not showing my position correctly,
why it is so? anybody has any experience?

@gavin_street
If Nokia Maps have not been used for a while stored ephemeris GPS data is out of date or similarly if application updated data can become corrupted. You don't mention whether you are hapy for Assisted GPS postioning method to utilise a network access point to contact positioning server = supl.nokia.com or whether relying solely upon the Integrated GPS of device. Try going outside away from tall buildings if feasible, launch Nokia Maps and wait 20 - 30 minutes for it to lock on to position.
It might be an idea to download LeGPSData2 application from Nokia Store so you can keep track of number of satellites acquired:http://store.ovi.com/content/208256

The reason, why NOKIA made ovi maps free ? read th...

Helsinki - Nokia made a breakthrough by offering maps and GPS navigation service is completely free for users smartphone. Step the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer makes the GPS industry players stressed. Google is also subject to receive the effects.
"We are offering navigation for cars and pedestrians in 74 countries in 46 languages. Ovi Maps truly free," Jukka Husio said, director of marketing services Nokia in Helsinki, as quoted by the AFP detikINET on Friday (22/1/2010) . The new version's Ovi Maps can be downloaded at the Nokia website is, to provide full navigation features like voice guidance for driving, 180 state map, directions and content from leading partners such as Lonely Planet and Time Out. All are available without charge in the handset Nokia N97 mini, N97, 5800, E72, X6, E55, E52, 6730 Classic, 6710 Navigator and 5320.
Navigation industry players such as Tom Tom and Garmin affected by this initiative is estimated to Nokia's. And iSupply's prediction that the GPS market is likely to fall. Nokia also seemed to challenge Google is actively developing the navigation for free for Android handsets, such as the Motorola Droid.
For Nokia itself, of course, the move to improve its position in the global smartphone market. Some time later, Nokia is losing market share captured the iPhone and BlackBerry.
"I think Nokia's intention they can stop the decline in the smartphone market with that step. This service is useful and may attract enthusiasts because it become free. But I do not know if will be enough to stop the decline in market share of Nokia," said analyst Michael Schroeder of the FIM. (Fyk / Faw)

Ovi Map not showing railway lines on N8 (UK map)

Hi
I've recently purchased a N8, and I was suprised to see the UK maps not showing the railway lines. However if I scoll across to Germany for example, the lines are clearly shown.
They used to show up on my 5800 and show up on the Ovi maps website, so why no lines on the N8? Or is it just an issue with my device?
Can any other N8 users with Ovi Maps v3.06 confirm whether they show the rail lines in the UK please.
Any suggestions? I've tried re-installing Ovi Maps and re-downloading the maps but no change.
Thanks.
Regards, Brian.

What version of the map data do you have as my N8 with 0.2.42.122 shows railway lines eg in Birmingham in the attached image. I have looked in a few places where I know lines run and all have been there, but it is possible that some have been missed.

(Could it be that this automatically loads software for the S60 handset?).
On first using OVI Suite you do have to accept any prompts to accept synchronisation software onto device.
Irrespective of whether you can't get OVI Suite or Nokia Maploader to work you can always download Europe.zip using links in this post by ovikovi here and then decompress:

That said it is a lot easier to overwrite E:\Cities\diskcache folders 0 - 9 and a - f using Windows PC as a bit more convoluted if using Mac although requires use of "Terminal" to merge folders.

HELP- Ovi Maps - Not accurate?

Just acquired my X6 phone last week...with importance on choosing this model being the Sat Nav package. First thing I did was downloaded latest Ovi Maps etc and have been trying system out over last few days. (Using UK Maps in Central Scotland) However...I'm having lots of varying problems continuously including:- 1) Routes are often completely wrong...taking you in the wrong direction, miles away from the route that it should calculate. 2) Big lags in messaging and corresponding map data appearing on screen. e.g. You arrive at a roundabout... before you get any voice instruction at all. Then, you've passed through the roundabout and heading merrily on your way...yet the voice instructions are only beginning to tell you that you are approaching the roundabout... and which exit to take. I mean ....way too late. 3) General lags can be as much as 300 meters. e.g. Map is 300 meters behind your actual position. Then it catches up...only to fall back again. 4) Also seems to show up occasional side roads and junctions which don't even exist. 5) Suddenly...for no reason announces "recalculating route" and appears lost for a while before getting back to where it should be. 6) Other spurious, non sensicle voice commands - e.g. turn right - whilst traveling along a stretch of motorway! I've tested running alongside my old Sat Nav system and also a Tom Tom which work perfectly...but Ovi Maps on my X6 is so far out... it's totally usable. Do I have a problem with my phone...or is it the OVI Maps system faulty? Anyone else experienced this. Solutions? HELP PLEASE!

Hi Comodo,
Two examples:-
Trip 1 - from Postcode - G62 6RA to KA12 8RR: Completely wrong route calculated (which I followed out of curiosity) taking me in a very long indirect route. I could find no logic to it at all. Also got badly lost with ridiculous instructions at various sets of junctions and roundabouts when joining the M8 motorway near city centre Glasgow. There were a great number of errors during this journey. (The interesting thing was that it calculated the same journey in the opposite direction correctly)
Route 2- from KA8 9AE to KA12 8RR - various problems and errors including lags and delays in info and incorrect instructions or very late instructions particularly at roundabouts.
Thanks for your interest. What do you reckon?

Does OVI maps localisation use download from inter...

I have a C5-04 cell phone because I was tempted by the GPS option.
I asked my service provider to block the internet access on my phone because I do not want any extra charges.
I have downloaded the map on my PC and installed it in the cell.
When I try the GPS, it is searching for my location ( blinking red spot, top left corner ) without any success.
Does the GPS mode need internet access to work ???
Does it upload or download stuff from the net other then maps and update ???
Will it cost me some internet band to use the GPS ????
Thank you for your help.

@helluc123
Just can't say how effective your C5-04 will be relying solely upon "Integrated GPS".
Hope instructions similar for your device similar to other S60 5th Ed. You could always go to Menu > Applications > Location > Positioning > Positioning methods - temporarily disable all except Integrated GPS go outside (away from tall buildings if feasible) launch Ovi Maps and wait 20 - 30 minutes for it to lock on to new position.
