Offline maps for Asha 501

Hi,
I lost my Nokia 6303, that allowed me to browse offline maps without any problems.
I bought an Asha 501 Dual SIM, but unfortunately I'm having a lot of problems:
- First of all, the phone is not supported by Nokia Ovi (because the phone is too new), nor by Nokia PC Suite (too old). I installed the driver for the USB cable, but PC Suite tells me that the phone is not supported.
- I could not get my address book from a backup of my previous Nokia. Is it impossible because it is a backup of a different phone, or should it be possible?
- I was unable to upload some maps to browse them offline. From the PC, I can't because the phone is not recognized, and I don't understand how to do it via wireless.
Can someone help me? Would it be possible to use this "new" phone at least like my old 6303, or it's just useless?
Thanks

Pattern lock for Asha 501

Hey, can anyone tell me whether there is a pattern lock or maze lock available for asha 501.
Its quite odd to lock the phone with a security code and again typing the numbers to open the phone. Its also a waste of time.

Whatspp For Asha 501

How long does it take for the whatsapp application to be availble for the device ????
Is nokia working on this ???? how long the users must wait for the app. its already two months from the launch of the phone.
Please dont say to contact the application developer whatsapp regarding this. Because Nokia is unitedly working with whatspp to make the app available for its devices so why dont nokia request whatsapp Inc, to develop the app for asha 501 as many users are requesting it ??????? Nokia is'nt bothered about it ??? If so why did nokia announce that :whatsapp and many other apps explore nokia asha 501 " in the press meet ????
NOKIA EMPLOYEES look at this and give a reply.

@ vsai :
end of september
VOIP may be supported in 501 but not sure. The developers of wechat and line might have specific reasons best known to them for not giving an calling option. So most probably i am not expecting a voip option in whatsapp.
And for resolving contact sync its taking long time and devlopers are working hard and now they may not dare to handle voip also !

10 best apps for Asha 501..

Hi
Can you please suggest few best apps for asha 501 users...

Though you may get some Random replys to your thread .. BEST is subjective. Something very usefull for one may be utterly useless to the other ..so Best for some particular user need not be the same for you .. You should look for the Applications yourself at the Nokia Store.. Select your Phone..then the area of Interest and check. You may then refer the User Reviews for the particular application ...

How to use offline map for windows store app using c# and xaml

Hi friends,
I want to integrate offline map in my windows store app but I am not able to achieve that.
Below is my requirement:
When a user wants to go somewhere where she/he doesn't want to use wi-fi or mobile data but wants to use map to assist her/him to roam around. For this I want to give an option to download the map for that region/area before leaving for that place and there
she/he can use map even in offline.
Is it possible that I can achieve this using Bing maps?
If yes then tell me the processes to follow.
If no then can I achieve this using "Here" or by using any other API or by tweaking any way?
Note: I am showing maps in case of online and user can search for directions or any places in that. I am using Bing maps for that.
Thanks,
S.Sandeep

Hi Sandeepmsandy,
There is no available code sample for this scenario. You may write your own.
Step 1: Get pdf URL from sqlite database. Please refer to the following MSDN blog and see a code sample.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/robertgreen/archive/2012/11/13/using-sqlite-in-windows-store-apps.aspx. Note, you need to retarget the project to 8.1 and then get two sqlite packages from NuGet before building this sample.
Step 2: Use some special classes to get file from serer.
HttpWebRequest can help download small pdf files. For more information to see
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsapps/en-US/de96a61c-e089-4595-8349-612be5d23ee6/download-file-with-httpwebrequest?forum=winappswithcsharp. It’s easy for use, but if you want to download the larger or many files, it’s recommend to use
BackgroundTransfer namespace. The classes in this namespace provide a power way to transfer files in the background. See a code sample from MSND.

Native Indian language support for Asha 501

Hi,
Can you please let me know the list of native Indian languages supported in Nokia Asha 501? Also, can I store the phone contacts in a native language? I'm more interested in knowing the list of mobiles from Nokia that support the Indian language Telugu.
Thanks,
Imtiaz.

Here, Telugu works for both the menu, for contacts, and for keyboard.
The Nokia 501 is based on a new operating system, called new Asha software platform. Previous platforms were Nokia Series 40 and Symbian/S60.
Nokia Series 40 supports Telugu as well, however, you need a firmware variant (certain product code) which includes this language. Therefore it does not make sense to post models. You need the correct product code in your device. Anyway, here is a list of phones with Series 40 and Wi-Fi …
With Symbian/S60, I have not seen any product code for Telugu.
With a Windows Phone like the Nokia Lumia 510 you would be off much better, because there, you can add languages easily via the phone menu (if you have Internet access). However, Telugu is neither supported in the menu nor as keyboard. (or I am too stupid to find it).

Software update for Asha 501

When new update of asha is going 2 be launched in india ????
Plz reply
Moderator's note: The subject was edited as we provide a topic touched on the subject.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

ayushrampant, please, give us that seven-letter code printed on the label below the battery (product code). Then, Nokia is able to double-check its update files. You, you have to go for a local but official Nokia Care Centre because officially only those have the tools to ‘refurbish’ the whole software/firmware of your Nokia Asha 501, officially.

Offline maps for wp7

Hi guys,
I got a Lumia 710 since about two weeks but somehow my offline maps don't really work. The maps application doesn't really load it, it rather looks like I can only view maps that are part of an old cach or something (only the spots that I recently viewed with a wlan connection work). Since I want to go onto a trip in one week when the maps application would come in quite handy I could use some help. Does anybody know something to fix it or is this a general bug of Nokia Maps for WP7?
Btw I use version 2.0.0.2148 of Nokia Navigation and version 1.3.10.230 for Nokia Maps which should be the current ones and yes the offline map is listed in my Nokia Navigation settings.

Thanks for these useful ideas Kosh.
I was really trying to get a handle on the allowance I should make for data on Nokia Maps when walking around a city. In other words, how many MB am I likely to need.My network gives guidelines on web pages and emails - but I have no idea about the data demands of Nokia Maps.
For example, would 25 - 30 MB per day be enough do you think?
Thanks for your response.
PS. The e71 has European maps pre-loaded, and has the same favourites synchronised, but of course the display is not as good as the Lumia 800, and I would prefer to use the latter.
When visiting mainland Europe before I have made very free use of Nokia Maps on the E71 because pre-loading meant I did not have to worry about data. This time is different as there is no Nokia Maps cache on the Lumia

Line with audio messages for Asha 501.

Line app updated with Audio messages feature and with Recently sent stickers. The app is better than previous version.

Asha 501 isn't supporter by Nokia suite, so you can't install apps from PC like any other Nokia phone.
You aren't able to access Nokia store via Wifi as well?. I would suggest a phone settings reset, you *will* lose data stored on the phone so backup before you decide to reset it.
