Show coordinates in Lumia Nokia Maps

There should be a dialog or other view to show the current location as coordinates in Nokia Maps. This kind of information can be needed in some cases and currently there is no support to get the coordinates.

  • Nokia maps suite 2.0 update- any issues?

    My phone is showing up an update Nokia maps suite 2.0 on software update client. Has anybody installed this update? I am a bit apprehensive because the Nokia maps 3.08 we got as update last time had problems and it had to taken off from the servers. I just want to confirm that this has no issues.
    In Love With My C6-01:Now running on Nokia Belle!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I upgraded to the new "official" versioin using Nokia Suite.  The upgrade seemed to go smoothly, but when I was still waiting five or six minutes after it said "one minute left" I got concerned.  I didn't stop anything on the PC - I simply picked up the phone and started 'Maps'. 
    Whether i was coincidence or just my timing, the process completed on the PC, just as Maps was starting up on the phone.
    Indoors, it was no longer sure of my location - it kept changing me to random places that were close to where I live, but not not correct.  That's when I had to stop.
    The next day, on a trip from Miami to Ft. PIerce, the software seemed to work beautifully.  I like the revised interface.  The phone worked fine, and I was quite pleased with it all.
    (I didn't know about the 20-megs of space being taken up in C: memory - if so, I'm hoping Nokia will correct this.  As to the update, I don't know if the installation just "hanging" on my PC was normal - if I would have kept on waiting, maybe it would have completed without my having started the software on my phone.  Overall, I'm quite pleased - but keep in mind that Nokia Maps is now the single biggest reason why I'm still using a N8.)

  • Nokia Maps 2.0 don't show maps on N95

    Installed the latest firmware on the N95 (V21.0.016 14-02-08 RM-159 A5.01), formatted the memory card, installed Nokia Maps 2.0 (v2.0wk21b02), started it (in order for MapLoader to work properly), installed MapLoader 1.3.8, installed the swiss and german maps via MapLoader (the files are definitively in the 'cities' directory on the memory card), rebooted the phone then started the maps application again. The GPS works find but no map is displayed (even though I'm in Switzerland, everything is just green background, no matter what kind of view (satellite, hybrid, 3d, normal) I choose.
    What's wrong? Bad quality assurance?

    I got it working!!! I sure hope this helps you all too!!!!
    Firstly, make sure you go to the app. manager on your phone (usually found in the applications folder) and delete the nokia maps 2 from there.
    Also reformat your memory card.
    Then do what needtogetfit posted but I've made it step by step for ppl like me LOL):
    Connect your phone to your computer using the "data transfer" NOT PC Suite. A folder should show up, if not, go to 'my computer' and it will be there as "memory card" or whatever you have named your card.
    Open it and you will see a few files in there. Make sure you delete the folder "cities" or "diskcashe" if it is still there and also delete a file called qf-file. (for some reason they seem to stay there even after a reformat etc and that's what seems to stop the maps from being seen properly)
    I also made sure I had 'show hidden files' checked in the tools/folder options/view so I could see if they were hidden or not.
    I then installed the nokia maps from my computer onto my phone via PC suite.
    Open up your maps (it may take awhile cause it's starting a new directory structure on your memory card to replace the ones you deleted)... and allow it to connect to the internet briefly so you can get satellite coverage. (dont panic, you will still only see a green page, but if you zoom out you should at least now see your country etc)
    Once you've done that, close and connect your phone to your computer using the "data transfer" and open up the map loader program and download your countries maps + voices you may want.
    Once done, go back to your maps and you will find that all the streets will be showing once again!!
    I hope this helps, it worked for me and I tried it on two different reformatted cards that weren't working before this.

  • WP8 Nokia Maps Lumia 820 - Offline Maps Can't Dele...

    Hello,
    I have a Nokia Lumia 820 with approximately 1GB of memory free.
    I am trying to download an offline map (approximately 150 MB) but I am always getting an error stating: "Not Enough Room, you need at least 1,137 MB of free space on your phone to get this map".
    I get the same message when I try to delete a previously downloaded map!
    Anyone had this issue before? Any help wuld be appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    One year later, this bug is still around: Nokia Lumia 1520 (1028.3562.1402.0001) with HERE Maps 3.5.486.8.
    In our German section, there is a guess, this relates to ‘maximum memory use’ (quota) which we all know from our Symbian days until Nokia Maps 3.01. It looks like the quota is fixed at 50%. Or stated differently: If your map data is larger than the remaining free memory, you get this error. or stated correctly: If your remaining free memory gets smaller than your existing map data, you get this error.
    Therefore, my solutions are:
    to remove a very large country like Russia or China,
    (three dots, horizontal ellipsis) Options » Delete all maps, or
    to use a memory card and Lumia storage check beta.
    The beta version still works on my Lumia Black. Because the now included Storage Check does allow Maps on memory card, you still need that beta. And because you cannot search and find that app from the internal Windows Store, you have to enter the above link into the Internet Explorer within your Lumia – or you download and install the XAP file manually.
    Consequently, to download the whole HERE world, one needs a 64 GB memory card.

    Hi IvanTsintsev,
    Thanks for your post and welcome to Nokia Discussions!
    Please perform a hard reset and software update with Nokia Suite to resolve this issue. 
    Connect your phone to Nokia Suite and make a back up via Tools > Back up. Don't tick the Settings box. 
    Disconnect your phone from Nokia Suite and enter *#7370# and default security code 12345, unless you've changed this code yourself. When the phone has rebooted, reconnect to Nokia Suite and click on the green arrow icon where you can update the phone's software. If no update is available, please reinstall the current software. This option will be displayed in blue. 
    When the phone has been updated, restore the back up via Tools > Restore and this should fix the issue. If you're still can't use maps, try uninstalling and reinstalling the maps through Nokia Suite.
    Let me know how you get on!

  • Nokia Map and Drive+ Beta on Lumina 920 Feedback

    So I took my new phone down to MD/DC area in the last few days and here are a few things that I would like to post as my feedback on what would be nice to have, fixes, etc.  [I used both my new Lumia 920 and my wife's Samsung Galaxy Note 2 as comparsion).
    1. Highest priority for me is that the routes from Here.net need to be able to sync down to the phone.  Nothing more is more important then this because when you have a custom route that you want to use (for example, to route around high traffic or potential high traffic areas).
    2. Extremely disappointed that a new road in MD (MD 200) was not used by the Drive+ and didn't even show up on the map on my Lumia 920 while it was used and did show up on Google map.  This road is a toll road and is over a year old already.  [And yes, I have enabled toll road in the navigation as well as selected 'faster route' as the routing to use under smart routing].  I cannot stressed how disappointed I am to not see Nokia Map have this route at all.
    3. Allow route changes on the Nokia Drive+ app.  As good as pre-planned trip and using Here.net, there are just tmes that it's much better to allow us to change the route based on latest condition.
    4. Never once did I see ANY traffic updates at all on both the Map and Drive+ Beta.  When it does shows on my wife's Google's Map/Navigation.
    5. I love that under Drive+, it tells you which lane to get into ahead of when you need to make a turn or merge onto another way. However, the flip side of that is that there's no way to know which road you're currently on.  This is probably more important for when you're in an area with a lot of highway/local way intersections.  Also, it would be great if it also will display the next major 'road' that you will be getting onto.
    So far I'm happy with some of the functionality and disappointed in some of Nokia Map and Drive+ and I have about a week left to decide to either stay with WP9 and Nokia or do I want to switch back to Android and Google Map.

  • Photo gallery linked to Nokia Map

    1. Open up the photo gallery.
    2. Pick a photo with GPS coordinates encoded.
    3. Option/show on map.
    4. Automatically launch Nokia Maps showing where that photo was taken. And navigate there.
    That was a great feature on some older E Series. But sadly not available for N8 Anna & Maps 3.06. What about 3.08? Or Belle?

    Are you sure you have uploaded everything in the gallery folder to the correct location. It can't find the index.html page.

  • Nokia Maps is a giant step backwards

    My relevant background - I live in Los Angeles, owned an HTC HD7S for more than a year and just recently got a Lumia 920. I like everything about my new 920 except vibration noise, and this horrid Nokia Maps app which is forced on us...
    Problems with Nokia Maps:
    Lack of integration with the rest of the operating system. 
    Nokia maps is an island to itself. I click an address from a people hub contact, it opens Windows Phone Maps, not Nokia Maps. I click an address from a Bing search which has a dedicated hardware button, and it opens Windows Phone Maps, not Nokia Maps. I click an address in an email, you guessed it, it opens Windows Phone maps. 
    Searching in Nokia Maps has terrible results
    I tried 3 searches today during the course of my day using Nokia Maps. Si Laa is a Thai restaurant I wanted to try a few miles from my house with an obviously unique name. The results I get are for Joyce Cafe, something in Germany and Slovenia. Next I try UPS in hopes it will find the company owned UPS Customer Center a quarter mile from my house. It doesn't find it at all, but does find alot of ups stores that are further away. Nokia Maps choked on another restaurant in Beverly Hills I tried to find. My wife's iPhone 4s had no problems with any of these. 
    Local surface street traffic info is missing
    On the Lumia 920, I don't get any surface street traffic info. I do see traffic info for highways and freeways. I used to get local surface street traffic on my old HD7S Windows Map. Windows Phone Maps shows some sporadic street traffic data but is not quite right either. I called Nokia about it, the level 1 techie tells me I'm supposed to have local street traffic but has no further explanation and has escalated to level 2...
    Nokia removed the Windows Phone Maps.
    As shown in the first point above, Windows maps is still clearly on the phone, but Nokia removed the tile for it from the app list. There doesn't seem to be a way to directly open Windows maps. This would be fine except that Nokia maps, which is supposed to be the replacement, is worse than Windows Phone maps in so many ways.
    There isn't a single reason to use Nokia Maps over Windows Phone Maps.
    The only reason I use it is because Nokia has seen fit to make Windows Phone Maps hard to start by removing it from the apps list.
    Nokia should leave both map apps available and in the apps list.
    If Nokia Maps is the superior product, people will use it. Right now I'd say Windows Phone maps is superior in every way and that's a shame for Nokia who is supposed to be a mapping leader...

  • Categories search in Nokia Maps for WP8

    After switching from my old Nokia N8 to a Lumia 920, one thing that disappointed me is the categories search functionality in Nokia Maps in WP8. On the Symbian device the categories were handily available close to the name search etc. On the Lumia I first have to search for the "Popular" places before I can even select a category. This is not the biggest issue though.
    My problem is that it does not seem to have the same fine grained categories as in the Symbian version. For example finding only gas stations seems to be impossible. In fact I dont seem to be able to show gas stations at all, since they are not included in any of the categories.
    Am I doing something wrong? Can I add categories somehow? Is this something that will be improved in the future?
    I am using Nokia Maps version 3.1.177.8 on a Lumia 920
    Thanks,
    Jakob

    Thanks for your reply.
    If you read my question again you will notice that I already know how to find the categories. My issue is that the division into categories is far too coarse and it's impossible to choose one specific type of POI, for example gas stations.

  • Nokia Maps Suite 2.0

    I've just used Nokia Suite to install Nokia Maps Suite 2.0 on a N8 running Belle.  I had been reading about it here: http://blog.maps.nokia.com/nokia-maps/download-nokia-maps-suite-on-your-nokia-belle-device#more-1929... 
    (When the installation said less than a minute left, it actually took much longer, around six minutes.  I was worried the program had crashed, so I tried to start it on my phone anyway, and right after that, the installation completed.)
    According to the version information on the phone, I now have:
       Version  v3.09 12wk09 b05
       MW OpenGL MN
       Map version 0.2.45.110
    I've got a few questions - the very first one being whether there is a document posted somewhere explaining how to use the new software?  Or, is it to be trial and error on my part?
    Next, I accidentally created a new "favorite" while trying things out - I can delete it by going to my favorites list, and doing a long-press on that favorite, to bring up the box with "delete".  Should I be able to delete favorites on the main Maps page as well?  I think that's how I used to do it ages ago.
    I did a search for a local bagel restaurant, and eventually found it.  I clicked on the little "i" (for information?) at the right side of the listing, and got their street address.  Should I also have gotten their phone number?  It would be nice if not only the phone number showed up, but if I could click on it to call them.  
    From the website about the program listed above:
    "For our UK users, new Voice Search lets you get directions simply by speaking, so you can now navigate hands-free! Tap on the microphone icon next to the search box and speak your destination. Voice Search will be available for more countries and languages soon."  Is this included in what I just downloaded, and will it work in the USA and India?
    Finally, I read something in this forum posted recently: "If you're still having issues trying the latest beta version from here should fix the issue: http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/nokia-maps-suite "    Is this version even newer than the one I just downloaded?  Which do you recommend?  Can you explain the differences?
    First impressions are very positive.  The list we put together for Bell problems/issues can be found here:  /t5/Software-Updates/List-of-Belle-additions-corrections-needed/td-p/1328167/page/5 .   The issues for previous versions of maps were:
      MAPS-- Ability to delete or edit map favorites from Drive (can be done from Maps).
      MAPS-- Re-enable the auto/Bluetooth connection to work with Nokia Maps Navigation.Camera & video
      MAPS-- Re-enable the auto/Bluetooth connection to work with Nokia Maps Navigation
      MAPS-- Return the English "surfer dude" voice to  Voice Navigation on the N8.
      MAPS-- Not possible to delete maps history.
      MAPS-- provide a simple and convenient method to import and export GPS coordinates
      MAPS-- Map widget doesn't support rotation with fingers
      MAPS-- No backup ability for map favorites without going on-line
    I'm hoping when some of us test these in the new version, we'll be able to mark them as "solved"

    Mike_Myers_N8 wrote:
    Well, my suggestions are as follows:
    Backup -
    As to GPS, I when the phone displays the information about a "favorite", the GPS co-ordinates should be displayed right there.
    I will have to test the other way as well - there should be a way to enter the GPS co-ordinates of a place you're interested in.  I did that years ago before even Anna was released, and it was very handy.  GPS co-ordinates are a "standard", a "universal" way of describing a location.
    It's nice that the software can do all the things it does with the internet/cloud, but that should all be in addition to the basic ways of doing it, not instead of.  ....at least that's my opinion.
    I'm leaving on a trip tomorrow - will have several days to work with the new Maps software, and see what I think.  First impressions are mostly good!  ...and thanks for your help!
    Points taken on backup. I don't actually use backups much myself preferring to copy files manually. What could be an idea for Nokia Suite is to be able to define additional filetypes or folders to be syncd.
    Agreed that display of lat/long would be useful on the favorite page, in fact I would go further and wish for the coordinates to also be displayed in 'local' coordinate systems as well.
    You can search by lat/long (eiter as DMS or decimal degrees) as shown in the attachment. Again I would like it to go further as I would prefer to have been able to search for the point i used as 'SP 487 169'. Incidentally I tried the same lat/long coordinate search with google maps, on the N8 and my android tablet, and found that rather than it returning the point i was searching for it decided to choose a nearby address, so in terms of searching Nokia is way ahead.
    Hope you have a god trip and maps proves useful. Since getting the N8 I have completly given up using my dedicated satnav and gps recievers, as well as compact camera.

  • Nokia Map vs GPS Data

    New owner of the 6220 classic. Can anyone tell me something about the relation between the Nokia Maps applicaton and the app called GPS Data?
    Sven

    Nokia Maps is a navigation software which allows you to plot you position on a map and also allows you to navigate to a known destination on the map.
    GPS Data on the other hand gives you raw information such as your location in coordinate form (latitude/longitude), speed etc., and has no navigation function. It will also point you towards your destination but purely in vector form.
