Ovi Map cannot run on N95

I just upgraded the phone software and installed Ovi maps on my N95. After I completed, I cannot launch Ovi map at all. I was prompted to reinstall it by the system. I've done so but it doesn't help at all. Can anyone help me out here?

Hi,
this was an issue in one of the pretty old versions of Access Connection. And since then this was fixed.
In case you see this kind of situation in the current/latest version of Access Connection, then this might be due to following fact:
You don't have the latest versions of following applications:
- Power Management driver
- Power Manager
- System interface driver
- Hotkey utility
- Wifi driver
In case you do, then I assume that Access Connection (AC) was installed BEFORE the above apps were installed.
So in this case I would advice to uninstall Access Connection, clear the regitry and %programfiles% from all the entries, that belong to AC. the reboot the machine, make sure, that you have the .net 2.0, 2.0 SP1 , 3.0 and 3.5 version also installed and registered. And once all this is met, which is BTW the prereq for AC , install AC and reboot the machine.
I think, this should help you out, as it worked by multiple other situations.
If not, then plase let me know some more details, as I would like to reproduce this situation.
Cheers

Ovi Maps cannot read postal codes?

I have a big problem with the functionality of Ovi Maps. All my addresses in my address book have postal codes (zip codes). When I click on the address in my Nokia N8 address book Ovi Maps opens but cannot find the address. When I edit the address in Ovi Maps and remove the postal code, then it will find the address. Why can’t Ovi Maps handle (or ignore!) postal codes?

hmmm... do not know what is going on.....
in Germany, i did search with postalcode information on the weekend, but it failed. So i did not use the postalcode and search (offline) was fine.
Now that i found this thread, i did test it again... and the same search-string worked fine.
hmmmm...... do not know what is different now... except that i am now much more far away from the adress i am searching for....

How to install OVI Map navigation for N95

Ok, getting very frustrated with this now. I have given my dad my N95 to help him get around but just cant get the map navigation to work. I downloaded the Nokia Map Loader (I had to go to a third party website as the Nokia links were all broken) and have the map/voices but when my dad tries to use the navigation it tells him he has to pay.
Obviously, I know that Nokia have now made these services free to complete with other company's devices, I'm just being stupid and not going to the right place to download them. When i go to www.nokia.com/maps on the phone it doesnt do anything. I've been trying for over a day now and the phone has almost made contact with the wall a few times - sorry to be a numpty, but how do you install the OVI map navigation stuff on the N95! :-)
Danny
Solved!
Go to Solution.

@Cowes67
Let's clear up any misunderstanding here, upon N95 there is no legititimate way of obtaining free voice navigation with version of Ovi Maps upon N95 as you would need to purchase a license!
You should run Ovi Maps application with a microSD inserted in N95 which will re-create necessary folder structure for Nokia Suite > Maps to recognise it.
Please note that standalone version of Nokia Maploader apart from version for Mac users ceased to be functional several years ago.
I still have N95 in use so post again if any further queries over this issue.

Cannot download 3.06 ovi maps for 5800XM after har...

Cannot download 3.06 ovi maps for 5800XM after hard reset. Any clue what's going on?

Similar problem on my E71 phone after upgrading the firmware to 300.21.012
I.e., when I start the application - it closes in a half way. Uninstalling is impossible.
When I start Nokia Maps updater - it says:
"Error. Cannot update licenses. Missing phone info: IMSI or IMEI cannot be obtained (20)."
Possible reason:
I've used Nokia Maps - Ovi beta before updating firmware to 300.21.012. After firmware update, I've updated Nokia Maps successfully with Nokia Maps Loader from the computer under Windows XP. But later I've restored phone info from backup, from another computer which is runing on Windows Vista. After restoring backup - I see my messages, etc., but Maps don't work at all (as written above).
Connecting through another computer (which runs under Windows Vista) - it says: "There are no new updates for your phone! Manage your maps and voices with Map Loader". But when I start Map loader - it looks as previous version loader; and allows only load voices, not maps. And still I can not start Maps in my E71 phone.
So how can I start using Nokia Maps again?

Problem Installing/Running Ovi Maps Plugin

Hi everyone,
I seem to be having a small problem with Ovi Maps 3.0 which I'm hoping somoene can help with. Probably an obvious solution to my problem but I can't seem to get the Ovi Maps plugin to install/run.
When I try to install nothing happens. I make sure to select accept the terms of reference but when I click the (green) Install the Free Plugin nothing happens.
Would anyone have any ideas on why this is happening? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!

You are using IE 8 ?
Same here... and there are messages about that somewhere in an OVI-forum....Plugin can not install on IE8.
There are workarrounds described.. one is to deinstall IE8 (so you will fall back to IE7), then install with IE7 and then reinstall IE8 again..... the other workarround is to modify registry and implement plugin manually.
I decided to wait until there is a fix..... i'm not sure what the plugin will give to me..... i am a little bit disappointed about how OVI maps work on PC compared with other products......

Cannot update c5 ovi maps to version 3.4

I can see the update on the C5. It shows 8102 kB. When I select it and choose start update (translated from finnish UI) the update runs, but the result is a failed update. The phone gives me an option to view the update history, where I can see an entry of failed updated, but no further info. There's 33 MB of free internal memory and the firmware version was earlier updated to 032.010. What could I try next?

Nokia does not care. Trying to upgrade after those "conversations" blog posts advertising 3.04 ended up killing Maps entirely on the C5.
My detailed post on MAY 24: /t5/Maps-Navigation-and-GPS/Maps-3-04-upgrade-breaks-Maps-on-C5-00/m-p/691170
Nokia did not care.
A month later, Nokia posted a "sticky" in the maps forum about the Ovi Maps calamity, completely ignoring the C5 problem. My post on June 30: /t5/Maps-Navigation-and-GPS/Re-Ovi-Maps-Installation-Troubleshooting/m-p/714834
Now, after upgrading to the latest firmware, I tried to install again. But now it says I'm out of memory on the C5. You know what?
Nokia does not care.

Since updating the recent OS on my iPad my location services do not work. Maps "Cannot determine location" and "Find Me" is running in circles. How can I delete the update on my iPad???

Since updating the recent OS on my iPad my location services do not work. Maps "Cannot determine location" and "Find Me" is running in circles. How can I delete the update on my iPad???

You can't delete the update and your problem probably is not in the Update.
Check to see if Location Services is turned ON. (Settings > Privacy > Location Services)
What model iPad Mini do you have? WiFi or WiFi + Cellular
Have you recently changed WiFi routers?

Why GPS symbols cannot exit after i exit ovi maps ...

i have one something problem for my hp nokia n86,
why gps symbols cannot exit after i close my ovi map. after i exit ovi maps the gps symbols still display, please help me for solved this problem , i used firmware 30.009, latest ovi maps v3.04

Okay then, the best solution maybe to remove Ovi Maps from your phone, backup all your contacts, messages etc. (not settings) to memory card or PC, remove the memory card and then try the resets in the order below, then re-installing Ovi Maps. Please note, if you don't back up your phone's data before resetting, you will lose everything!
Factory settings reset. In standby, dial *#7780# and the phone's security code (the nokia's default security code is 12345). This reset restores phone's original settings.
Soft reset. In standby dial *#7370# and the phone's security code. Soft reset deletes ALL your phone's data!
Hard reset (the three key code/reset). Turn off the phone. Press and hold three keys together, the green/talk key, the * key and the number '3'.Then, turn on the phone and don't let the three keys before you see the nokia hands logo/nokia boot up screen. Hard reset also deletes ALL data on your phone!
Good luck!

Ovi Maps and Nokia Maps - do I need both?

I am sure this question has been asked already but I cannot find it having spent some time doing a search.
The question is do I need both or can I dispense with one? If so, with what consequences?
The position is that I tried to update Ovi maps but couldn't because there was insufficient space on drive C, so I thought I would delete it and then I would be able to install the new version. Unfortunately wrong again - still insufficient space on drive C. Hence my question - do I need both maps? Life would be easier just with Nokia maps in the circumstances.

Thanks. Can I take it that Nokia Maps is pre-installed? Would I be correct in concluding that I can delete Ovi Maps to save space and just update Nokia Maps from time to time?
If Nokia Maps is not updated from time to time I would need to install Ovi Maps to keep up-to-date?
I have I think deleted Ovi Maps but I still have Maps. In fact I am fairly certain I have all the maps I downloaded from OVi Maps. When I run Maps the screen refers to "Ovi Maps". Perhaps I haven't uninstalled Ovi Maps at all although the programme said that I had! Perhaps it is Ovi Maps that is pre-installed.
Sorry but I remain confused and hope I can through this tread clear it up once and for all.

Nokia Maps / Ovi Maps Installer

Hi All,
I heard that we were now able to get maps and navigatoin for free, is this correct? I have a n95 and when I go to use the navigation feature in Nokia Maps (just updated it), it says that navigation is a premium service and that I have to pay for it.
I thought there might be a new program available so I tried to install Ovi Maps from the Ovi Store on the phone but it just gets to "preparing to install" and then says "Update Error" and quits.
I have tried reinstalling the firmware but get the same response. Does anybody know what is going on, have I missed something?
Thank you.
Tom

Hi Gregorycharper,
As your phone is a S60 5th edition, I believe that the last stable release of Nokia Maps was 3.06. Versions afterwards like 3.07, 3.08 and 3.09 were solely for Symbian^3 devices running Symbian^3, Symbian Anna and Nokia Belle: http://betalabs.nokia.com/trials/ovi-maps-for-mobile-v3-07/download_and_installation I'm not too sure if 3.06 graduated from Beta Labs into Nokia Store, but you can always check Nokia Store for the latest version listed there.
Yes, you could always switch your SIM card and memory card with your son's phone if you believe it is a software issue, or that it is a hardware issue. Likewise, checking the Maps data and installations when your phone is connected to your computer in Nokia Suite. Apart from Nokia Suite and Nokia Maps on the Nokia website to download the installation files, there is not really any other place to source the installation files.
Hope this helps.

[INFO TIPS] How to survive with Ovi Maps 3.0 insta...

Quick info tips. I wanna made this post earlier but I was on few days trip so didn't have a chance... but it's good coz I was tested GPS in real touristic environment.
I'm from Europe so I don't know how all links posted below will be works for people outside Europe.
My hardware: E63 with latest firmware + external GPS module LD-4W
Everything what we do here, we do with phone connected to the PC via USB cable in PC Suite mode and with fully battery charged.
If you have Maps 2.0, everything works well for you and you payed for any of licences - better stay with that version and don't touch Ovi Maps 3.0. Waste of time and nerves.
1. Please make phone data backup in PC Suite. Please make data backup of your memory card.
2. Check if you have firmware upgrade for your phone (click on some icon in PC Suite). But if you have cracked Symbian and you using cracked software better stay away from firmware upgrade. There's new cracking method for newest firmwares, ask Google. I don't use it, I'm clean. If you have new firmware - update the phone.
3. Download MapLoader - http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/download-maps/map-loader Do fresh install or update old MapLoader
4. Bluetooth MUST BE turn in phone. Why? Ask Nokia. -_- Just kidding but unfortunately it's not funny. Without Bluetooth Ovi Maps 3.0 installed in next step (6.) is crazy as hell. Application is completly unusable, skipping, switching... one big hell on the screen. I don't know how it looks like in phones with build in GPS module.
5. Download Ovi Maps 3.0 - http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/download-maps and update with this installer old Maps 2.0 in the phone.
6. Run Ovi Maps 3.0 and allow to download via Internet connection in your phone (wifi, gsm, 3g) some portion of initial data - 300 or 400kB - something like that, up to 1MB maximum then disconnect from Internet. It's needed to save some file (I don't remember name) and make structure of catalogues on memory card.
7. Leave Ovi Maps 3.0 and run MapLoader. This application is one big pain in **bleep**. Sometimes doesn't see your phone, sometimes doesn't recognize correctly your memory card size (when you are finished downloading your map/s data that stupid soft can say to you "you don't have" or something like that)... horrible! If something goes wrong - try restart your PC and phone then connect again via USB cable - still in PC Suite mode.
8. When luckily you have maps on your phone, try to pair your phone with your GPS module via Bluetooth or turn on build in module in other models (I think it works like that?).
9. When you will be look out for licence for walk navigation... you cannot find it. You can see only your region name (in my case it was Europe) and you have an option to buy... licenses for drivers. ROTFL! Licence for walk navigation is "hidden option". You must go here - http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/product-support/maps-support/how-to/how-to--use-map... - it's mini FAQ how to obtain it.
What I see, there's NO MORE free trial licenses in Maps v3.0 You must pay from day one. I buyed that licence for walk navigation for 10,12E (10 euro 12 euro cents) and it's not time restricted - looks like lifetime, ofc for the phone that you use (I think). Other licenses (for drivers) are time restricted (30 days and up as I remember).
Everything works fine for me. I was over 220km away from my hometown in awesome town Wrocław and Ovi Maps 3.0 helps me A LOT with navigation and searching for monuments in this town.

NOKIA IN USE: N8

Ad. 1) "...Please make data backup of your memory card."
Because maybe you must be format memory card for proper maps installation (instead upgrade from Ovi Maps 3.0 installation level old installed maps from v2.0).

Ovi map update failure

Hi,
I connected my X6 to OVI suite on my PC and it informed that there were updates.
So I went to updates and selected the optional updates in which it showed that there is an update of OVI maps. Since I was not interested in all other optional updates i selected this one and started the update. After downloading the update, the update started and after a few minutes I got an error message: "Update failed: an internal error occurred"
My OVI maps version is 3.04 and firmware version of X6 is 32.0.002. I know that my OVI suite is not the latest version but that cannot be the problem.
I can update maps without problems, also delete and add are no problem, but changing from OVI maps 3.04 to 3.06 always fails (have tried is several times, also disconnecting the phone, resetting it etc...).
Why does the update fails????
Regards,
Rene

@Moma13
Perhaps posting which device with what firmware version you have run into issues with would be helpful here. Resetting device to "Out of box" state and/or re-installing exisiting device software using Tools > Software updates > Re-install within Nokia Suite upon PC will resolve most issues.
Nokia Maps v3.06 & later use mapping 0.2.46.103 whereas Ovi Maps v3.01, 3.03 & 3.04 use 0.1.28.107 so old set of mapping would have to be replaced anyway as part of update.
Sometimes installing Nokia Maps v3.06 provided there is enough free phone memory (>20MB) can entail removal of more files as in this post:http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Maps-Navigation-and-GPS/Ovi-Maps-v3-06-File-Not-Found-Installation-E...

Ovi Maps crashes continuously on N8

Phone:
PR1.2
Custom version 014.002.269.03
Product code 059C8T6
Type RM-596
Ovi Maps 3.06_11wk10_b01_tb9.2_com
Map version 0.2.42.122
I have a newly bought N8. Each time I start Ovi Maps it crashes after around 0.5-5 minutes. No other applications are launched in parallel. I have tried to play switching on and off different positioning methods - it does not help. All the same, it crashes with any combination I have tried. Even if I switch off all the methods except built-in GPS, it crashes. I have restored the factory settings and reinstalled the OS. Before installing some applications, I have tried to start Ovi Maps - it crashes all the same.
It crashes in a strange way. It first freezes. Then in around 10 seconds the screen goes dark, then fully white and then the phone restarts. But it does not restart from the very beginning, as it does when you switch the phone off and switch it again (it shakes, then it asks SIM pin, then lock code). Instead, after Ovi Maps crash and the white screen, it shows the white screen with "nokia" on it (no pin codes are asked), then comes the desktop screen, no applications are running at this point yet, it does not react on the touch screen, no connection to the cell network. Then it starts to revive, connects to the GSM network, starts to react on the toch screen, on the button, refreshes the desktop, etc. It runs further as usual.
The questions are:
1) Is it a hardware or software problem?
2) If it is a known software problem, is a remedy going to be included in the coming updates of the OS and or Ovi Maps?
3) Are there some workarounds to have Ovi Maps in some form/regime running stable on my phone? Ovi Maps was really a decisive argument to buy the phone and now it turns out to be absolutely not usable...
4) Would downgrading of Ovi Maps help? If yes, how can I get the version 3.04 of Ovi Maps for N8? Or could it be that some other distribution of Ovi Maps 3.06 is more stable? How could I get it?

aspergerguy, thanks a lot for your comments!
“I notice that you are using Ovi Maps 3.06_11wk10_b01_tb9.2_com which is not pre-installed in PR1.2 (v3.06 11wk07 b01) so you must have updated at some point after resetting device. Did you try setting up pre-installed version following prompts before updating this application?”
I cannot say for sure, it was a month ago. Probably, I did. As experiment, I would try v3.06 11wk07 b01, if I knew, where I could get it. Ovi Shop offers only the version I have installed on my phone.
Anyway, I believe, it will not help. I have tried other applications (e.g., Sport Tracker), where positioning is in use, they crash the same way as Ovi Maps. The crashes are not related specifically to Ovi Maps. I believe, it is a system issue with positioning.
“If you go to Menu > Settings > Application settings > Positioning > Positioning server > Positioning server use - is it set to Auto. in home network?”
It was “always ask”, but I have changed it to “auto”. It does not help, the phone crashes as before.
“Did you try OVI Maps application whilst in USA (was it on TMO) before going to Germany?”
Yes, I did. It was with US at&t sim card and some German one. No difference, it was crashing the same way. It was also crashing without any sim card.
“There is obviously an issue with the Assisted GPS positioning method which unfortunately since OVI Maps v3.06 wants to make a lot more connections ( no you can't revert to v3.04 once vPR1.2 installed).”
There might be an issue with Assisted GPS, but it is far from being the only one. The telephone crashes if I have only the internal GPS switched on, the Assisted GPS and the network methods are switched off. It crashes all the same.
“As an experiment go to Menu > Settings > Application settings > Positioning server > Server settings - is just supl.nokia.com listed or anything else as well? - if nothing else go to Options > New server - add supl.google.com (if another network server @ 2 remove it). Whilst pinging this server as experiment is no issue there is no authorisation for continual use by Nokia device(s).”
This part I did not quite understand. I have included the second server in the settings, but how can I ping from the telephone? Should I install a ping application for that?
With the second server the telephone crashes as before. No changes.
“With regard to wired headset included you really do need to press it in hard until it "clicks".”
Great, thanks! Now it is working! One has to push it really hard…

Recover Ovi Maps favourites.

I tried to upgrade my 5800xm through NSU but it got bricked, so I took it to nokia serve center and they repaired it for me. The mobile is up and running perfectly now.
My problem is that I had saved some favorites in OVI MAPS on the mobile but forgot to synchronize it with the web service (also did not make any phone backup....sooooooo stupid of me), and now all my favorites are gone. I had copied all the files from the memory card to a folder though. If I am correct ovi map stores all its map data on the memory card and it should also store the favorites on the memory card. Does any one know where the favorites are stored and how I can get them back. Please I really need them backup...not all but just one.
Thanx in advance.

Thanks for the advice.
After digging more deeply in the applications I finally found the Landmark application and sent the data via e-mail to my computer.
Data arrived correctly.
Transfer from *.lmx to other formats can easily be performed with GPSBabel (http://www.gpsbabel.org/)
The only thing that annoys me is the fact that such a transfer cannot be performed via the UBS cable (Bluetooth is no option since the receiving computer has no such device).

URGENT - N96 - Ovi Maps problem

So,
Last week my phone (N96) gone crazy and had to do a format. I have owned this phone for 2yrs+ and never gave me any trouble, except for last week.
Then, after the format I restored my latest back-up. (the only drawback, was that I was not able to select the mass storage and the storage for my messages!) Now, when I try to open the maps, it states 'Cannot open application. Install latest version'. I have been trying to install the latest Ovi Maps, but nothing seems to work!!
How can I solve this problem??
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Depends on yourself. I usually reformat the mass storage after hard resetting and I never backup anything other than contacts and messages. So I redeuce the risk of restoring corrupt data and bad settings.
Doing it this requires me to reinstall all applications I previously installed to the mass storage as well all map data. I believe the Maps application itself is installed in the phone memory anyway but it may have reverted to an earlier version so you need to update it to the latest. After updating Maps you need to run it once before downloading new map data for it. It is a lot of work but this is the way I prefer to do it myself.

Ovi Map cannot run on N95
