All existing ephemeris GPS data would be lost by software re-installation so as farby points out initial positional fix may take up to 30 minutes.
Also check to see whether device has Ovi Maps v3.01 now installed as not part of firmware:

  • Nokia 95 8GB can't find updates

    OK, so my n95 8GB is stuck at V 10.0.021! It doesn's find updates! I have it about an year, and couldn' solve the problem until now.. please help. I updated the nokia software updater etc...

    This page: http://europe.nokia.com/A4577224 will tell you is NSU has any updates for your phone and what the latest is.
    If you cannot get beyond v10 with NSU, the most likely reason is that you have an operator-variant phone for whichthe network has not approved any updates, or has approved them for Nokia service points only and not NSU.

  • I like to know how to User a Nokia N95 8GB, as GPS...

    Hiya Everyone,
    I had download a great app called KISMAC Trunk for MAC OS X 10.5, within the app it has a GPS map, but i cannot work out how, by using my Nokia N95 8GB phone, as a GPS receiver, i can see that the N95 is getting singles from the satellites, but i would like to know if there is or is not, away for the GPS data to be able to be used by KISMAC software?
    I have tried loads of thing, but i cannot get the Phone and the MAC to used the GPS data
    Please can anyone shed any light how i could get a fix from my problem?
    Thanks

    and i can report success with [ http://www.symarctic.com/beta/static.php?page=extgps_download ] 
    i haven't used it in a while now, but if i recall correctly i used this app on my N95-1, and something like gpsX on my Powerbook to receive the gps data.
    at the time i found these apps by searching for info on using my N95 as a GPS for google earth.  i'd bet searching for info re: google earth will turn up more results than searching for info re: kismac (one is a bit more socially acceptable than the other).
    goodluck,

    (N95 was pretty good, N97 had potential but utterly failed to deliver, N900 is absurdly good. Those of you wondering, "should I try N900/Maemo/MeeGo"? The answer is a resounding YES)

  • Nokia N95 8GB and Windows 7 Home Premium Dutch

    :robotmad:Ladies and readers, I have, including a Nokia N95 8GB the desktop is new and draaid on windows home premium en when I Vista had worked with the Nokia everything is perfect. Now that I do I get windows 7 have not been contract more Nokia N95 8GB through the desktop computer get the notification that the software is not good, but which I have already removed and again installed but there is also clear the need to install software that it is old windows and vista so there is not to WINDOWS 7 I will take place this is a major disaster for Nokia that, over time inspeeld on a real upgrade for the desktop so that there is also normal contact with the Nokia N95 8GB can be made. why it is not on the openingspagina of Nokia if it would have been! We are nevertheless service to clients and should do so we get a good appliance bought and not a WHICH CANNOT comuniseren with the computer since Microsoft now Windows 7 sells and what I am therefore in the original state I can install by an approved fitter. Therefore, I would like to see that Nokia a link sends so that I can make both wireless contact and the mobiletelefoon can facilitate upgrading and data can uitwissellen. Otherwise, this after 3 pieces my last Nokia. vetaling Babylon

    Dude i think u just spoke french!
    Sorry to say that i didnt get a word that you said.
    I assume you have upgraded to windows 7 and are unable to use or install nokia pc suite.
    First of all it aint nokia's fault that windows 7 came after they had uploaded the setup.
    All you need to do is download the pc suite to you computer or laptop or whatever it is ... then right click on the setup and click compatibility mode nd just keep pressing next next next.
    Im sure your pc suite will be installed then and you will be able to use your computer to transfer everything to and from the phone..
    Have fun and lemme know if it worked.
    Chances of workin = 101% because im on windows 7 aswell  

  • N95 Nokia Software Updater can't find phone, but P...

    Hi,
    The Lastest version of Nokia Software Updater can't find my phone(connected via USB). But Nokia PC Suite connects to my phone. Very weird.
    I'm running windows vista business, Dell Laptop.
    I have checked(using product code:0548763), and my N95 Firmware can be upgraded to v12.#, currently firmware is v11.#
    I have disabled my windows firewall, and unistalled my McAffee anti-virus.
    I think the issue might be with vista, because i successfully upgraded my phone on windows XP from v10.# to v11.#
    But then PC Suite shouldn't work, on vista? I tried adding NSU to data execution protection exclusion list.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks
    Dasdk

    i dont think the problem is with PC OS ..
    i have xp and i cant upgrade my N 95 ..
    it sometime shows Phone not recognized and sometime it sshows unable to retreive phone info....
    this update thing sucks man !!

    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 N95 8GB Album Art and Album Folders Issue

    I have been hunting for for a resolution for two issues with the N95 8GB Media Player all over the web.
    1. Adding artwork (CD Covers) to audio tracks (or albums) seems to be at best hit and miss. Most of the time it just does not work.
    2. Deleting an album delete all the tracks but deleting the album folder seems almost impossible.
    Well this weekend I decided to try to solve this and I think I may have hit upon a solution.
    Since so may people have the same problem I thought it worth repeating. I would stress this has not been exhaustively tested but it does work reliably so far.
    I am using Nokia Music Manager 2.0. The fix is simply to convert the files to AAC rather than to M4A (which is the default). After this simple change everythig worked find for me. I can add and delete albums from Nokia Music Manager 2.0 (don't forget to refresh on the phone afterwards) AND reliably add Album Artwork.
    So here is how I have been working.
    1. Set the conversion format to AAC. I have been using 'Ultra high' quality setting. Options Menu >> Setting >> Conversion Tab.
    2. Next put in a CD, select all the tracks and choose copy to my collection.
    3. While this is going on I find the artwork on the Web. A simple Google Image search with the album title and artists last name / band name seems pretty 100% to get the on the first page. Download image to My Documents / My Pictures.
    4. Once the CD Rip is complete they will all appear in My Collection. I select all the tracks in my collection for the album in question, and then right click on one of them and select Edit.
    5. I then attach the Album Artwork by clicking on the blue folder and choosing it from my, MY Pictures folder.
    6. Finally select Copy to Phone from the File Menu.
    This has worked for me so far 100% and I have done 20 or so albums.
    NOTES:
    To get Nokia Music Manager 2.0 I uninstalled the version of Nokia Phone Suite that came with my phone and went to
    http://europe.nokia.com/A4144905I (or seach Google for "nokia phone suite"
    I chose the N95 8GB downloaded and installed. At some point shortly after install Phone Suite informed me that there were updates available and Nokia Music Manager 2.0 was one of these.
    I was originaly using this and suffered all the problems you guys have. After searching the web and finding no solution I decided to do some experimenting.
    Hope all this helps.
    PS If you need to delete all your legacy album folders, this is the fix I found on this same site. You can do this at any time.
    1. Enable the option to be able to see Hidden Files and Folders in your Windows Explorer.
    2. Connect your n95 8gb to your computer and choose data transfer mode.
    3. Go to My COmputer >> Nokia Phone Browser >> Nokia N95 8GB >> Memory Card E:
    3. If you have selected Show Hidden Files and Folders (see 1) you should see a folder called Private.
    4. In the Private folder you need to delete the contednts of three folders
    \private\101FFC31 (mpxv1.mpd and pcv5.mpd)
    \private\101f8857\Cache
    \private\101ffca9
    In all the 3 folders delete all the files Not the FOLDER
    Next time you restart the music player it will rebuild the indexes without the deleted albums folders.
    Hope this helps someone. It restored my sanity.

    Album Art
    Basically there are two methods
    Method 1.
    You do it on the phone. Load the album art pictures to the memory card. (Must be JPEG NOT BMP)
    Load also the music files.
    Open Music application in the phone. Open an album then select Options->Album art then Options-> Add, browse for the picture and select Ok.
    Repeat for each ALBUM
    Method 2.
    You do it on the PC.
    Get a Tag editing software like Tag&Rename, WINAMP, etc.
    Edit the files Metadata to include Album Art picutres (again they should be jpeg and also they should be set as Cover Front).
    Transfer the files that have Album Art using File transfer (usb mass storage) don't use MTP or PC Suite as these methods may convert the files and Album Art will be lost.
    Or you can continue using your Method

  • Nokia N95 8Gb Maps V2.0 problems.

    I have had the new Nokia N95 8Gb for just over 2 weeks - I had it from my local Carphone Warehouse in Broughton (near
    Chester). The problems I have with Nokia Maps V2.0 are as follows :-
    1. Very slow on calculating a route - I am visiting numerous factory sites around the UK, so I saved the postcodes. On this particular occassion, I wanted to plan a known route home from one of the sites (53 miles), and I was nearly home when it had planned the route.
    2. When a route has been calculated, the cursor showed itself just to the side of the road I was on, thus telling me I was not on a road.
    3. Keeps changing the orientation - from pointing in the diretion I want to go (forward), to the direction I have been (backwards).
    4. Planned road display changes from full width to narrow line - at this point, it no longer knows where it is and tries to recalculate route until the road changes back to full width.
    I looked at the various forums (both Nokia and others), and there are many threads reporting the problems I have described above. I tried all of the suggestions including :-
    1. Switching off Assisted GPS - in the Positioning methods - seemed to make no difference.
    2. Use an external GPS receiver - much better in locating position, but still the same problems in reliability detailed above.
    3. Switched off the go online when starting up Nokia Maps - this just made locating position take much longer.
    4. Full hard reset of the phone, twice - no improvement.
    5. Download Nokia Maps V2.0 and re-install - no improvement.
    The overriding conclusions from the various forums was that Nokia Maps V2.0 is a backward step and that Nokia Maps V1.2 was so much better. As a consequence, I downloaded Nokia Maps V1.2 and loaded this up. I used it for a 400 mile round trip with no problem at all - directions were clearly displayed, route calculation was quick and it never lost it's position. Unfortunately, I can only use the route planning for 3 days - free test from Nokia when I connected to see licence details. The
    only issue I have is that as my car has Bluetooth, I cannot use the voice navigation whilst using Nokia Maps, however, this is not an issue as I just keep checking the screen.
    As I am pretty reliant on being able to get to the various sites without complications, there is no way that I will reload Nokia Maps V2.0 until I can be assured of its reliability. Unfortunately, I can not use the route
    planning either as my licence relates to Nokia Maps V2.0. What I want is to either transfer my 2 licences to Nokia Maps V1.2, or have a refund for Nokia Maps V2.0 and then purchase licences for Nokia Maps V1.2.
    Any assistance would be gratefully received. I have been in contact with Nokia Care who have suggested reloading maps 2.0, however I have already done this. They now suggest updating the phone software, however, it is at v 30.0.018 (pre-loaded) which is the latest version. I am due to take it in to my local Nokia Care Centre tomorrow and let them look at it.

  • Nokia N95 8gb screen acting up

    Hi, I have a Nokia N95 8gb North America version. Recently, my phone started acting up. The phone would sometimes freeze when I'm using an app, but I could often just press the menu button and just go back. Also, the screen would sometimes become oddly coloured. However, now the screen is very, very weird. The screen is flipped and reversed, and some parts are cut off. I didn't drop it or anything when all of a sudden this started to happen. Unfortunately, my phone's not under warranty anymore. What can I do? Also, where can I find a care point in Vancouver, British Columbia, or are there any at all? Thanks

    Nokia Care details are in this link..
    http://www.techvibes.com/company-directory/nokia-canada
    You may try upgrading / re-installing the firmware..
    1. Download and install the latest version of OVI Suite from
    http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/nokia-ovi-suite
    2. Connect the phone to PC using the USB Cable (Suite Mode)
    3. Open the OVI Suite
    4. First take a Back-up of the phone (Tools-->Back-up).. as you may tend to lose data during the process..
    5. Tools -->Software updates .. and follow instructions
    Note : During the updates the phone may switch OFF.. do not worry.. It will switch ON on its own.Ignore any warnings you see in Windows Task bar.. Even when you see the update is complete.. do not disconnect the phone till it switches ON again...
    Hopefully the problem should get sorted by now.. Restore your data (Tools-->Restore)

  • Nokia N95 8gb Internet Explorer problem!

    Hi all! I have nokia n95 8gb and let one of my friends use it to surf the net. Now when I try to work on the internet explorer, the connection keeps dropping off. I have checked and it's not my router which is the cause of it. Unfortunately my firewall and antivirus protection was not on while I gave my friend my phone to use. I have scanned the phone and nothing is coming up in the antivirus scan. There seems to be this message that comes up every so often when I am working on internet explorer and it's as following:
    "/c:/system/dmgr/1008d39/contents/st.."
    I am afraid there might be some malicious file that got downloaded onto my phone. Not too sure as to what is happening. If anyone has experienced a similar problem or can help me with this problem then I would really appreciate the help.

    So I have been going through my history to find out what pages were opened that day and found out that the file 'st' is automatically downloading only when I open any livejournal page and then it diverts to the '\c:\system\dmgr\...' message. I have downloaded and run the KMS antivirus software but it doesn't pick anything up. All other websites that I visit are fine but when I open livejournal the 'st' file automatically starts downloading and then diverts to the page along with disconnecting from the WLAN.
    I have downloaded the y-browser and deleted the respective file from c drive but everytime I try to access livejournal, that file starts up again. Does anyone have any ideas as to what else I should try to deal with this? I would really appreciate the help. Cheers!

  • Nokia n95 8gb CDC COMMS ERROR - FAILED DRIVER INST...

    Hi, If anyone could put this demon to rest I would be greatly appreciated.
    I have been using my NOKIA N95 8GB for over a year with my computer, that runs Wondows Vista. A few months back I discovered that My phone would no longer connect to the computer in Windows Media Player Sync mode. I then found this was true of all connections except PCSUITE. Even though it does connect in pc suite mode, the computer states that it is installing the drivers for the phone,a nd then opens a little windows in the task tray where it says all the things it is installing. Eventually everything except two things are installed. CDC COMMS, and COM16
    If I attach the phone in any other connection other than PCSUITE My phone makes an unhealthy fast usb connection tone, and does not seem to resgister. If i go into Device Manager I can see the computer does realise the phone is there but has a yellow exclamation mark next to it. The phone does not show up in Windows Media Player, or in My Computer as a secondary hardrive as it should.
    This problem has now been apparent with two different phones, Vodafone sent me a new product to check if it was the phone itself. I checked the phone on my mum's computer and it seems to work fine, I can install all drivers and The phone registers in pc suite and media player.
    its a pain having to go back and forth between my mother's house however so any help would be really appreaciated here. Either write on here or email me at
    Thankyou so much

     Since you narrow it down the probllem to your pc/laptop why not have your pc/lapto scan for virus/malware from the net. If the problem still persist then have a clean re- install of the os & do a restore of your backup.
