Nokia N95 and Maps Software

Hi, Just recently I bought licence to Maps from Nokia for one month just to check how it works. The day I bought this I could not open Maps software for a single time. Because whenever I click on maps, its load 90% then it hang. I tried again and again nothing it does not open, I restart the mobile, nothing happen. Can you please inform me what can I do? Thanking you.

Would need to know whether you are using Nokia Maps v2.0 or Ovi Maps v3 from here:http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/maps-support/compatibility-and-download#/nokia-n95/
Map data is different between these versions and most common cause of application crashing is corrupt or incorrect data.
You may need to delete E:\cities + .qf file, re-open Maps application to re-initialise application and re-define necessary folder structure for Ovi Suite > Maps to re-download regional mapping.

N95 Warning - Map software may be useless

Warning: If you have a Nokia N95 and it did not come with an extra memory card, your mapping software cannot be used until you pay the extra for a card.
Some companies, such as T-Mobile, are selling Nokia N95 without a card. No problem, you think - 160MB must be enough to last me for ages! After all I want to do is to load on my one country (which is a fraction of that) and maybe a ring tone or two.
However the software DEMANDS that maps must go onto an extra memory card and cannot be loaded onto the 160MB of main memory, even if there is plenty available.
Note that this information is not on the box. If it is on the Nokia web site, I couldn't find it, and the store staff when specifically asked if I needed a card for maps said no, the maps should fit onto the main memory.
Please be aware of this if you are considering purchasing a N95.
This information was confirmed with Club Nokia, speaking to Mike. If you want to confirm this, the reference number is 1-127740290

Well I somehow managed it, unless I've misunderstood what you are saying? I didn't get a memory card with my N95 (I've got one on order), and I've download maps on mine. I even set a route between Cambridge and Peterborough and ran a navigation simulation on it. And with voice.Message Edited by preludecrazy on 19-Apr-200701:32 PM

Nokia N95 and OS X 10.3.9

I'm currently running 10.3.9 and consequently iSync 1.5
I have just got myself a new Nokia N95 and did a bit of searching for a phone that would sync with a Mac, the N95 had support from Nokia - all good. However, I'm an idiot and didn't check which version of OSX you needed to use the Nokia plugin. It needs iSync v2 and consequently I can't even get my computer to recognise the existence of my phone in any form let alone sync.
I'd really like to be able to sync the phonebook and more importantly calender, and also to use the USB cable to import photos from the phone to computer and to put files from the computer onto the phone. I was hoping that the laptop would at least see the memory card as an external devise and be able to transfer on and off it but apparently not.
Is there any software out there that can get an iBook running 10.3.9 to sync with an N95 at all? I wouldn't even mind paying a small amout for the new version of iSync but it looks like you have to spend $129 to upgrade to Tiger which I really don't want to do when Leopard will be coming out soon and I'm considering an upgrade or new machine then.
Help? Please?

Until you either obtain Mac OS X 10.4.9 at a minimum, or Mac OS X 10.5 when it ships soon, you are stuck.
A Nokia N95 is not natively supported by iSync, and requires a plugin which itself requires iSync 2.4 Mac OS X 10.4.9 or later. The architecture in prior versions of iSync 2 and Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.8 is inadequate to support current plugins, and does not exist at all in iSync 1.5 and Mac OS X releases 10.0 through 10.3.9. There is no workaround to this situation.
You can access the memory card and transfer media files bidirectionally using Nokia Multimedia Transfer beta release 1.1, but it too requires Max OS X 10.4.9, iTunes 7 and iPhoto 6 or later releases of both the OS and these applications.

Nokia N95 and Route 66

Hi Guys!
Does anyone know if N95 is compartable with Route 66?
I currently use Route 66 on my 3230 and it works Great! It is even beter (to my taste anyway) then Tom Tom 910. I want to upgrade to Nokia 95 but find (by reading reviews) its sat nav beeng not that straight forward and also costly.
...my current network O2 told me that N95 is not compartable with Route66 ???
Many Thanks,
Kate

nokia was very clever when they released the N95...
To enable other companies to use the built in GPS chip nokia would need to release the SDK's needed to implement the programs to use the chip... but they only released it to these companies days after the general release of the handset!
The reason??? Well think. Nokia by th company who supply the map software... are then slow to release the needed SDK's to the rival companies meaning most ppl just by a year or so's subscription to Nokia's own software, thus making Nokia even more money from every phone sold!
They arent the biggest mobile phone company for no reason!
V.clever Nokia!

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.

N95 Installed Maps Software Glitch

Hi,
I just bought a new N95 couple of days back. I clicked on the MAPS icon and the software seems to load only 30% and then returns to the menu screen . I was wondering if anyone had similar problems and how do you resolve this
Thanks
Yogithebear

Hi yogithebear
Carrying out a hard reset returns phone to out of the box condition. If you have a microSD memory card for your phone just back up phone data to it and restore afterwards. Sometimes using PC Suite it can let you down when it comes to restoring.
For your licensed software did you download the .sis to your PC and install via PC Suite with activation code being emailed to you, in which case you can re-inatall software and re-activate?

Nokia n95 and n96 made in finland, korea or china?

Hey all, I want to buy a nokia n95 8gb or a n96 with wifi and gps, im looking in ebay but im scared since there are a lot of fakers... some phones says they are authentic but they are made in china and/or korea. I want to know where are the phones made so I can get a legit one, not a clone?

/discussions/board/message?board.id=topfaq&thread.id=20
check these two threads out and read through them carefully, the correct statement is marked with green/solution. hope this helps your quest. it does not matter where a genuine Nokia phone is made, it is still very much genuine, there are several factories in the world that make them hence, the difference in where they are actually made. it's a read worth taking

Now June 2010, nokia n95 and the "free navigation"

since the release of ovi 3.03, im sure many nokia n95 owners have been patiently awaiting free navigation, especially as it has been heavily advertised that smartphones will have free navigation forever.
now june 2010, there has been no new press coverage regarding nokia's stance for the n95 model since its exclusion from the list of supported phones. can we expect to receive no support at all in the future and give up hope? is it nokia's intent to dismiss these loyal customers and expect them to purchase phones which are supported? where do n95 customers stand with regards to free navigation now?

Correction. It was advertised that smartphones in the list of supported phones will get free navigation.
I own an N95 myself and would like very much to get free navigation for it. However the reality is free navigation was not on offer when I bought the phone and I bought it knowing that I had to pay for navigation. When free navigation was announced for selected current model phones, I was aware that the N95 was not on it. I don't know if the reasons for the exclusion are technical or commercial but it has been pretty much confirmed that no other FP1 phones will not be getting it.
However, as a very nice gesture, Nokia did significantly reduce the license charges for navigation which are now only around €10 per year or €2 a month for a whole region such as the whole of europe, which I think is very reasonable.

Nokia N95 and Panther

Can I sync a N95 8gb with 10.3.9 ?

No. Mac OS X 10.3.9 was released years before the Nokia N95.
iSync 1.5 does not have the Plugin architecture to allow additional phones to be added.
You need to be using iSync 2.4 or later with Mac OS X 10.4.9 or later, plus an N95 iSync Plugin from Nokia:

Nokia N79 and MAPS 3.0

Hi everybody,
I have a question about upload new version of nokia Maps 3.0 on my moblie Nokia N79.
When I download Map Loader version for my moblie, it starts, connects to internet, founds moblie device, than writes unexpected error end ends. I try to reinstall whole mobile from OVI, device is NOT HACKED !, everything is original. What should I do ? Thanks for any idea.

Nokia has changed map data providers to Navteq from Teleatlas for Europe. While this has improved mapping for countries like Ireland, I believe it has made things worse in most Eastern European countries. I expect Navteq will be improving their mapping of Eastern Europe in due course but I can't tell you when, so if you need something to use immediately then it may be best to get something else.

Nokia N95 GPS Maps Navigation now free?

After using Nokia Maploader to get the maps onto my phone, its letting me use the voice navigation for free without buying a subcription. Why?

I think I have worked out what is going on here...
I hard reset my N95, installed the maps fresh (which took a very long time, but that is a different subject, so I won't get going on that)
I then checked if I could do full 7 digit postcode search while at home and still no, with "Network Use" set to "Never"
However, I have now come into the office, defined the wlan acess point (mine is broken at home) and set "Network Use" to "when needed" and I can do full 7 digit postcode search. If I then change that setting to "never" it reversts back to truncating the postcode.
I would appreciate if other N95 owners could confirm that this happens on their N95 too, and if so, it looks like maps is pulling additional info from somewhere to enchance the downloaded map.
You seem to be right. I cleared all the maps, then downloaded the maps for England using maploader and tested it. With network connection you can do full postcode search, but as soon as the internet connection is lost or turned off the system reverts back to truncating the postcode.
If you use the route planner while you have the network connection you can use the full postcode to set the destination point while having the GPS position as your starting point and the destination point gets stored as your destination.

Nokia N95 and HBH-DS970 BT headset not working

Hi,
I read on the web and reviews about DS970 working with N95 but for me it pairs fine but when it gets to the connect part it fails.
I have the latest firmware version v 10.0.018 (i think).
So far i'm impressed by the phone but i REALLY hoped to use my headset with the phone so a bit disappointed right now.
Any ideas?
BR /Reza

I found the solution.
I went to the SonyEricsson shop (100 meter from where i work ) and asked them if there were any update for the headset and they said there was so once it was updated it worked like a charm on first try. It does not show the file tag or name as with my W950i but works anyhow and thats whats important...
REALLY HAPPY now.
I was considering to buy a Nokia headset but i really like my DS970 so now i can continue using it

Nokia N95 Previous Map Installs

I am currently using version v2.0 wk45 B04 of nokia maps and have not got one connection yet even leaving it upto 1 hour.
Before my phone went in for repair i was on the latest V31.0.017 firmware but on v2.0 wk30 B04 which connected nearly always immediately, I have tried googleing but cant find a download for this version.
If anyone knows how to get that version of the install can you let me know please

Hi twobit
Apart from the need to backup essential data, if you carry out a reset by keying in *#7370# on standby screen followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code) unless altered by yourself device will revert to earlier version of Nokia Maps pre-installed in the firmware. That said your issue is more likely to be that network internet connection for "Assisted GPS" feature in Positioning > Positioning server is incorrectly defined after update.

Nokia N95 and Nokia 6110 GPS Tracking and Duress S...

You can get a full software suite from here
http://tinyurl.com/2b6l45

How often do you use GPS?
The first Fix can take up to 45 minutes if you don't have or use A-GPS.
Try to leave the phone somewhere outside and wait for connection or buy an external BT GPS receiver which usually connects in a few seconds.
Why don't you as suggested just download the map data to your SD card? It is anyway for free.
Google Maps normally tries to use network positioning, which also works for Maps. Please check your setting in the GPS tab. If you need help please reply ;-)
