Ovi Maps 3.03 Weather icon is still absent (E72)

Weather icon in Ovi Maps 3.03 (E72) disappeared on May-1-2011 and still seems to be absent.
It's in Online mode and other Ovi Maps online services work OK  (Lonely Planet, More, Events)
I did notice similar recent messages posted here about weather icon being gone on Ovi Maps 3.04 and 3.06.
While the original posters replied that the icon has since been restored (due to service technical issues), however it's still absent in Ovi Maps 3.03, at least on E72 (in USA).
I'm not sure if anybody else could confirm this issue in similar configuration.

Welcome to the forum!
Presumably you have made a conscious decision to remain with OVI Maps v3.03 rather than v3.04 available here?http://www.nokiausa.com/get-support-and-software/product-support/maps-support/compatibility-and-down...

  • Ovi Maps 3.04 missing weather icon

    After installation of the 3.04 update, in my E52, I missed the Weather icon, even when I am online (with SIM card).

  • Ovi map - My Position icon MISSING (N8)

    Hi,
    I just got my N8 few days ago. After updating Ovi maps to the newest version ( 3.06 if not mistaken ) I have noticed a few problems.
    1) My Position icon is totally missing, that means i can't locate my current position in gps. that's really bad.
    2) Gps cant lock even after a pro-long scanning time, moreless 30 mins anywhere. I'm using intergrated positioning. Red signal blinking, no data found.
    3) I tried to delete the CITIES folder and qf file, and reinstalled the ovi map downloaded, but problem still remains.
    I haven tried anyform of hard or soft reset  yet, as i found lots of people facing problems doing that. Is there any other way to ocmpletely remove ovi map & reinstall it again, or i need to do a reset ?
    I would like to get some advice from you guys on solving my gps issues. Thank you

    Some cars have coated windscreens which can reflect gps signals and this will slow down position fix. One way of testing would be to compare how long it takes to get a fix in the car as out of the car. I generally get a fix after about a minute.
    My suggestion if it is a windscreen coating problem would be to get yourself an external bluetooth gps receiver. They are very cheap nowadays. The advantage of using this is the external receiver is usually much more sensitive and you can also place them anywhere in the car to get the best possible signal.  I have a few of them. They work well and would normally get a position fix in seconds. 

  • Ovi Maps 3.04 - POI's icons

    How can I set Ovi Maps 3.04 to show only the icons of my saved favourite places?
    Sometimes, when I browse the map of a major city like Lisbon, Ovi Maps shows a large number of icons for its standard POIs.
    I have already tried to turn off the 'places' option at the map view menu, but the icons of all POIs still are showing.

    I know what you're talking about, but that's not what I meant.
    What I tried to turn off is the 'places' option, which is at the menu with the map view options satellite view, terrain view, 3D view, night view.

  • Still the same bugs?! (Ovi Maps, N8)

    Hi!
    I'm using Ovi maps lately quite a lot but I have some problems with this software, especially with the usability. When searching the net for bugfixes/help I found an older bug report on Nokia BetaLabs: http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/ovi-maps-for-mobile-v3-06/bugreport/23781/top-10-bugs-in-ovi-maps-v-3... and my problems are still the same but Ovi Suite says that I have the latest version (v3.06, Map version 0.2.42.122 on N8-00)
    My problems are:
    1.) When searching for an accurate address (Street name, No., ZIP, City name) there is no hit for offline navigation, Ovi maps needs an online search. If I leave the house number out the offline navigation finds the street - Why aren't there the house numbers stored for offline navigation? There is mostly no sense in only finding a street but not the accurate address. As long as I only use the navigation inland that isn't a big problem as I have internet connection included in my phone rate - but it's a problem abroad because of high roaming rates ...
    2.) So I have always internet connection on Ovi maps - problem is that sometimes when the UMTS-connection is lost (e.g.. in tunnels) there is a pop-up if I want Ovi maps to connect to the internet. If I choose "Yes" there is some seconds later a new pop-up where I need to choose the connection - That's very annoying! I can't find a setting like "always allow Ovi maps to connect to the internet". There is only a setting if I only want offline navigation (which doesn't work, see 1.).
    3.) If there is more than one result I can't figure out what is the difference between the results (except the distance) because the exact address isn't scrolling and the results are only like "Country, State, ...." - I don't see the differences because there is only "...".
    4.) I can't scroll through the map once the navigation has started. There is only this mode where I can scroll threw the turns/junctions. Sometimes I like to see where the navigation takes me before I start driving, that is hardly possible without a 'free-map-scroll-mode'.
    One last point is the search-process: It is more comfortable to have a step-by-step search for the destination like all major satnavs have (TomTom, Garmin, ...) and bigger on-screen-keyboard because with this tiny letters it is quite impossible to add/change the address while driving.

    AUTxRemoteC wrote:Now to the points from my first post:
    1.) I've downloaded the maps via Ovi Suite on my mobile. Internet connection is only used for the search, but not everytime, it's only some kB but abroad some kB could be very expensive ;-)
    2.) Thanks for this hint but everything was/is configured right as you said. This is more or less a general problem of my phone, maybe it has also something to do with my provider. Not only Maps asks regularly for the connection to use, other applications like the AR-Apps Wikitude and LiveView (from BetaLabs) but also some games are doing the same.
    1. Maybe I misunderstand your question but I have no problem with searches right down to numbers in streets with the phone offline i.e the country, town, street, street number is found and the cursor sits over that exact address on the map. Perhaps it is a problem with your country's maps? In the countries I use the geo data is readily available right down to the individually surveyed plots of land in towns and cities (and hence to numbers in streets).
    I often find it quicker to do a search for the country first if it is another country you are searching for the address in, then do the city, street number and name search.
    2. I suspect that you have not barred such connections somewhere in the set up of your phone generally or else for for some app, or perhaps, as you have games, etc loaded, one or more of them insists on "phoning home" as some do and as they have opened a connection Maps asks to use it.
    That with Maps 3.08 on an N8 but I do not recall any problems on earlier versions either.

    You need to install the the free version of Ovi Maps, rather than update the one you had. Download and install the free version from here.

  • Ovi Map 3.3 Problem, wants to reinstall it.

    I installed ovi map 3.3 on my n97 today. The weather and some other feature won't run. It simply gives me a running sign on the upleft corner of the icon, but does not really run.
    I figured it might be the problem of having old ovi map running when I was updating to the newest ovi map.
    Anyway, I want to reinstall it. However, I can't find ovi map in the installed apps list. Not on the phone or from pc suit.
    Anyone knows how to reinstall it w/o formatting everything?

    Follow the instructions in that link. As for future updates, just google Ovi Maps.

  • [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/down​load-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/down​load-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/p​roduct-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).

  • N8 Ovi Maps Lags Actual Location

    I thought I read about this problem somewhere but cannot remember where.  I tried searching but did not really find an answer.
    When I use Ovi Maps on my N8, either just as a map while driving or to navigate, it appears the icon representing my current location is always a little behind my actual position.  For instance, when my car is in the middle of an intersection Ovi Maps shows that position only after I am a few car lengths past the intersection.  This happens at all speeds.  I have it zoomed in a fair amount so that I can read all the street names.  This makes it hard to navigate where there are roads really close together since you cannot easily tell where to turn.  Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks
    Jay

    The latest version from the Ovi store did not correct the issue.  I also uninstalled Nokia Bubbles (along with downgrading Qt framework) and still have the problem.  I just installed the latest Ovi Maps from Beta Labs and also upgraded my maps, still have the problem.
    As mentioned I have the zoom level set to where the red triangle is about twice the size of main roads (not sure how to read the gauge - might be 230 yrds or so).  I have the map auto-rotating around my position.  In non-navigating driving (i.e., no destination set) the red triangle is centered on a side road when I am completely thru the intersection, sometimes by a car length.  This may not sound like a problem and most times it is easy to figure out, but where I live there are side streets very close to one another and at times it is difficult to know which one to turn.  Also, the rotating/scrolling of the map does not appear to be very smooth or quick, but I am not sure if that is how it is supposed to work.  Also not sure if there is some delay when the map moves (i.e., only every half-second it is updated, etc.).
    Anyhow, I am trying to figure out if it is a problem with the N8 GPS, other N8 hardware, etc.
    Thanks

  • Ovi map, start - close - start again, crash!! plea...

    I have an N97mini, Software version V 12.2.110, custom version 12.2.110.232.01
    My ovi map version is v3.04 10wk32 b03 MW, map version 0.1.25.114
    I perform following operation sequence:
    start ovi map, everything seems work. Exit it by touch the "X" at the bottom right corner.
    start ovi map again, everything freezes, wherever I touch including "?" and setting, i receive no response whatsoever.
    I have downloaded only California map onto the device. Please help!

    Hi there,
    Following is what I have done:
    1. hard reset the phone as you suggested
    2. config wifi on my phone so that map can be downloaded later
    3. formated E: (I don't have a memory card, massive memory is always used)
    4. config the positioning to use only integrated gps as you said
    5. install ovi map the exactly the file you suggested. this is done by first copy the installation file to a directory on E: and then use Application -> office -> file manager to run it
    6. After ovi map is installed, download CA map via wifi. Then I go back to ovi map menu and start the map, it asks whether I want map via wifi, via ovi online or .... I forgot, 3 options, weird, since I downloaded the map already.
    7. then I click "X", the problem still there. ovi map freeze sometime, it can not be started for the second time when it's not freezed at the first.
    I wonder is there a way to really clean up everything in the device and start from scratch? I did a device firmware upgrade via ovi suite after I got the phone. I don't know whether that matters.  I have received following email from Nokia customer care with suggestions, shall I try it?

  • Download the Entire Ovi Maps Database?

    Just because I want to, I'd like to be able to download the entire Ovi maps database - every detail of every corner of the Earth, not just all the cities/countries available in Nokia Software Updater, which I've already gotten.  I figure that if all the roadways of every country in the world only occupy about 7-8GB on my 32GB drive, adding the terrain of the remaining unpaved/uninhabited regions of the world shouldn't add that much more.  Or, at least less than I have available room on my drive.  Is there an easy way to do this?

    On a related question I have downloaded ALL countries (around 9.7GB) but then the various REGIONS show the "Download" icon still active? My question is that if I have downloaded a country do I still need to download the regions as sizewise the data would appear to be already there.
    A check on one particular country/region/site (Beijing) showed no change from when I had "China" & then downloaded "Beijing" although the software happily loads this extra data onto the card. Now after having added about half the "regions" (worldwide) the card has over 15GB used (of 32).
    Am I correct in my assumption that "Country" covers ALL regions? Unfortunately this isn't explained anywhere & adding all of this data is most likely useless & could in fact slow down mapping!

  • Favorites problem after upgrading to ovi maps

    I just upgraded my 5800 to ovi maps using the Nokia Maps updater. Everything seems to work except for one significant problem. Although all my old favorites are still there, when I go to the favorites menu, there is no text in the menu items, or the text is the same black color as the packground. I can see little icons, and i can go to my places if i remember that is the 2nd item on the menu and there I can see a number of items equal to my favorites, with little icons and also no text. I have to blindly select and discard till I get the one I was lloking for. Once selected though, they appear on the map just fine. Please help.

    Do you have many pictures?
    Have your tried to reinstall the phone software using SUS to check if the problem remains?

  • Ovi Maps does not launch anymore on my 5800 Xpress...

    I have the latest ovi maps for my nokia 5800 (3.06, and also the latest firmware of the 5800), and everything was working fine until yesterday when I click the Map icon, the application is not launching... I did not install anything new, it just does not want to launch the application (no error message, just like i did not press the icon). I had the same issue couple of weeks ago when suddenly the ovi maps stopped working (i had to reset my phone and reinstall everything), and today it's the same all over again...
    Do you have any idea how to fix this? (i have around 40Mo left in my phone memory, so there should not be any memory problem i guess....)

    Presumably you have Ovi Maps v3.06 (688) installed http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/global/phones/software/ ovi_maps_installer_3.06_11wk23_b05_s60_5...
    Don't know whether you restored from a backup after resetting device and have re-introduced a problem.
    Perhaps try removing E:\Cities + .qf fle from 5800 and store safely on PC desktop, as empty folder structure re-created when you next open Ovi Maps application.

  • 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.
