Why network disabled for GPS / Map of Nokia Commun...

I was coolly using GPS / Map in my blackberry programmed Nokia Communicator E90 through satellite provision (not internet or intranet connection). All of a sudden (may be I have pressed mistakenly in wrong button) from yesterday, whenever I prompt for GPS / Map, it gives a message "Network usage disabled. You can enable it from application settings". But I could not find such application settings in the mobile. I appreciate your proper / step by step guidance to solve this issue.

In the Maps application, hit "Options", choose "Tools" and then "Settings" and check the settings in the "Internet" tab/view.
Check also the actual "Settings" app in the "Tools" submenu, and there "General" then "Positioning" and make sure that at least "Integrated GPS" is checked/enabled ( but I'd also enable "Assisted GPS" ).

Solution for google map in Nokia C7 & C6-01

I have Nokia C7 & C6-01. I installed Google Maps on my C7 & C6-01 with Belle. But I found a solution.
Latest Version of Google map (V. 4.1.1) works fine with belle, you need to just turn on your wifi for it. Then it will work

If considering re-installing existing device software via Nokia Suite, I might suggest that after backing up essential data you reset your C6-00 to factory settings, so that Nokia Maps sets itself up from scratch and ensures that Assisted GPS positioning method establishes it's network access point.

Why aren't there any English GPS maps for Japan?

I mean, why? There are GPS maps for almost every developed country, but for Japan there are none that i know of (neither Navteq nor Teleatlas, which are the two major cartography companies out there).
I've seen several Japanese GPS solutions, but they unfortunately don't have an English option. I've never seen a major company like TomTom or Garmin (among many others), offering a solution for that market.
So, what company does the cartography out there (Navteq or Teleatlas like), and why doesn't TomTom or Garmin use their data in order to develop an English GPS solution? There has to be some kind of logical explanation.
Kind Regards.

As no doubt you were aware when posting Garmin Mobile Xt is now no longer available:http://www8.garmin.com/support/collection.jsp?product=010-11034-00
Since this is the only way of getting navigation for Japan, Pakistan and Cyprus which Nokia have choosen to avoid providing for with Nokia Maps, presumably you would rather OP was left in ignorance of technical feasibility of it's use upon Symbian devices.
Whereas under your profile it says "Please do not contact me asking for assistance in a personal message (that includes bringing posts to my attention), you will not receive help from me in that way" I have always been happy to provide further guidance should user so request under such situations.

Upload other maps to Nokia N95 for GPS use

As you all know (I hope you do) Nokia maps does not supply maps for Bolivia, yes, I live in a big, but small country in the heart of South America.
Yesterday, a Garmin local representative offered me a copy (legal copy) of Bolivian maps ($20 per city).
Does anybody knows what format should I ask, and how to upload the maps, if possible, in order to use them with my N95 GPS Maps App???

If u want the map for Maps software in installed in ur N95
then it is useless because the only way to upload a map to ur mobile is by using Nokia Map Loader software.
try to get TomTom or route66 .

Nokia E6 Searching for position / Waiting for GPS ...

I have a new nokia E6-00 with Symbian Anna (1 month old). I am very frustrated with the in-built GPS (Ovi Maps). It is working fine when it is connected to a Wi-Fi network, but when in OFFLINE mode it can not locate any satellites. It keeps displaying "searching for position" and "waiting for GPS". What should I do?
Note: I have only checked Assisted GPS and Integrated GPS as positioning methods because I do NOT want any internet traffic caused by Ovi Maps.

Hello there,
I am writing because I am also having similar GPS difficulty with my E6-00.
Here are the proper problem description and some background info:
- for the past year, I had been using the C6-00. Its then Ovi Map was awesome, worked great in Asia, US, EU.
- and before that, I also had the E71 for 2yrs. Again, Ovi Map served well.
- Both phones only required their built-in GPS to navigate either walking or driving (with "offline" and "mobile data off")
Now the problem with E6:
- When "offline" or "mobile data" is off, the GPS simply wont function AT ALL. Like OP said, it gets disconnected soon afterwards. My question is, this is intended for E6? In comparison, the result in E6 seemed like a huge flaw.
- Navigation / Positioning also seem "messed up". I am in Taiwan, Map version v0.2.43.11. I did a test: I launched both Nokia Map and Google Map on E6. Google map was accurate, showing exactly where I am, but Nokia Map was offset for 500 meters!! This made navigation IMPOSSIBLE!
Map versions:
- C6: 0.2.46.103
- E6: 0.2.43.11 (cannot be further updated)
Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.

View GPS tracks in Nokia Maps

Is there a possibility to view GPS tracks in Nokia Maps (1.2), e.g. if the track is in gpx or kml format? I tried several converters but the lmx file that I get only gives me waymarks but no routes or tracks. That's ok for short tracks but problematic for long tracks with a lot of waymarks. Is there any other way to deal with this?

I think that would be great if we could have a little map in the screen for the map in the Sport Tracker. For example the same maps you have in Nokia Maps.

Maps and waiting for gps

hi guys please help a novice,
i recently upgraded to belle and since then i have been unable to get a gps fix it continually comes up with "waiting for gps" it worked fine on anna i have checked all settings as per previous posts on here an all is fine i have sat outside all day but still no fix !!! i own the n8 and love it to bits but wish to god i never updated to belle i ihave also tried lgs satellite from ovi but cant get a reading please help thaanks mark

@farby
OP stated already tried third party GPS application!
@jabba129
No doubt that you have tried enabling "Assisted GPS" only and waiting 20 - 30 minutes outside?
I would check in Menu > Settings > Conectivity > Settings > Mobile data - is it = On?
For a small number of users taking device to Nokia Care Point so that device can be re-furbished to return device to "Out of box" state with Nokia Belle software may be only solution, as then automatically sets up network setting for Assisted GPS to reach positional server = supl.nokia.com

N95 GPS maps for Iceland

Hi all
I have tryed the Nokia Map loader and I find alot of maps but Iceland in not there. Do you know if I can grap it somewhere or do I haveto use a 3rd party software for GPS ?
Regards from Iceland

Hi there,
Does anyone know of any updates on this? I am happy to use the non-navigable maps for now as I have a good road map (but a terrible sense of direction!). Would be really useful to be able to download whatever maps there are beforehand. I have been browsing the map over a WiFi connection on an N78 and quite a lot of data comes down. Map Loader doesn't list Iceland so I can't seem to download anything that way.
Aggh!
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Oliver

The external GPS is used only for 911 but the device will not op without it...this causes great inconvenience for me, having to run that cable to a window in the trwo houses I use it..ids there a way to disable the GPS if I do not care about the 911 funct

the external GPS is used only for 911 but the device will not operate without it...this causes great inconvenience for me, having to run that cable to a window in the two houses I use it..is there a way to disable the GPS if I do not care about the 911 functionability..? this is the only downside I have with the network extender and it renders my device useless..

Nope, GPS is a Federal requirement for anything operating a cellular telephone signal. You don't ever plan to call 911 until you are in an emergency. I don't see that requirement changing any time soon.
If you are truly inconvenienced by the VZW network extender then perhaps you should disable you calling features in these areas and swap over to WiFi only. There are many services and apps out there that can route your phone services through internet service providers.

Waiting for GPS - Updating map app

Hello, I have a E71 and when I launch ovi maps and try to use it, it gives me the message: Waiting for GPS
Sporadically it finds enough satilites to calculate the position but most of the time it gives me that error message for hours.
Second thing is that I tried to update the ovi map app on my phone but I can't figure out how to do that. I have now version 3.03 and I tried to update using http://store.ovi.com/, but it gives me a message that it can't be updated using the site. I also tried the Nokia Suite for that but I can't find the app in the suite software.
Moderator's note: The post was moved to the most appropriate board so others can easily search for the same topic.

Today, navigation worked for about 20 minutes well! It worked fine, was able to find enough satelites and I was able to navigate and I was happy..., but then the fun ended and now it gives me the waiting for gps message again and the app can't find more than one satelite to determine position! By the way, I didn't changed any settings from the moment it worked.
- About the version of the ovi map software, I googled a little and found pages talking about v3.04 and v3.06, for example here!
- And than about Google Maps, can you maybe tell me how to install it? I searched in the Nokia Suite but I couldn't find it but maybe I do something wrong!

Best MMORPG for Iphone 3G and a question about gps maps

Hi there,
Could anyone tell me what are the best free and paid iphone 3G MMORPG games? And please tell me some positive and negative things in the games.
I didn't know where i could ask this so, i came here to apple forum, because i have subsribed to internet on iphone today. This topic doesn't have anything illegal.
Another thing, does anyone knows if using gps maps through 3g internet, spends a lot of internet trafic? today i've used gps maps for about 12km and it spend me 80kb of trafic. Is this possible? because someone told me that iphone gps spend a lot, but really lot internet trafic. I didn't used sattelite view.

The sattelite view uses far more data, of course - because of the photography it has to download. But the regular map is still a bitmapped image that has to be updated. It's not a massive amount of data, but not insignificant either.

That sounds about right - I'm using about 240mb at the moment, and I've a few videos and about 100 images on the card, alongside maps of the UK.

I'm not too sure either. I think it might be in a hidden directory on the card. You might be able to view it if you put the memory card into your computer.

Yes, that's normal. If you move any of your images, videos etc from the phone memory to the memory card, they'll live in these folders. The phone is set by default to use the memory card for the camera, for example, so new pictures you take once the card is inserted will be added to these folders.

How to disable network connections for an application

Hi to all,
I would like to know if there is any way a user can disable network connections for a specific application.
Thank you,
Xwang

Yes, but I would like to block only a specific application, not all the traffic from the PC.
I've found this "solution" which uses iptables on the net:
"Add a group to your system (I use nonet myself), then add a rule to your output chain like this: -A OUTPUT -m owner --gid-owner nonet -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-net-unreachable Run the program for which you know in advance that you want to block, with sg (sg nonet "your_prog your_args")."
Do you think is it right?
Another suggestion was to use unshare to call the program disabling the net for that program only.
The problem is that unshare is runnable only by root so, in case, I should turn on its setuid flag in order to execute the program as a normal user, but I don't know if it is safe to do that.

Why does Maverick's Apple Maps Require WiFi for Location?

I'm connected via ethernet to my cable router. Why do I need WiFi enabled on my iMac for Apple Maps to work?
This makes no sense at all and it seems that the OS perfers to use the 54Mbps WiFi connection over my direct 1Gb cable connection. Surely this is a bug that needs to be fixed or a requirement that makes zero rational sense. The WiFi is just as connected to the exact same router as my ethernet is, if only wirelessly.
In addition, whenever WiFi is enabled, it drops the connection to my router randomly and usually during some point overnight.

Best thing to do, is send feedback to > Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback

I've had a network extender for 2 years and since August I can't get a GPS signal

I have had a network extender for over 2 years and have had no problems with it. Since August, I have had nothing but trouble. The GPS signal went out and I went through all of the Verizon troubleshooting tips and nothing worked. They sent me a new one and it has worked for about 2 weeks however now I have the same exact problem, the GPS is red and I haven't had a GPS signal for 2 weeks now. What is going on? How is it possible that after over 2 years of having no issues, we can't get a GPS signal?

I spoke with another Verizon tech rep and he was going to open a network trouble ticket however first he needed to gather some information. He directed me to this site http://8x8.com/Resources/Tools/VoIPTest.aspx
to get info on the speak of my computer and IP connection however when I began the test, there was an error and it couldn't measure my VOIP connection. The Verizon rep said that there isn't software in the network extender and that it's based off the VOIP. So he suggested I call my internet provider and tell them that I'm trying to use a VOIP and for some reason it's not working. He suggested I tell them I'm trying to use Vonage and not Verizon though. Anyway, I'm going to call Comcast tomorrow and provide them the information that I got off the http://8x8.com/Resources/Tools/VoIPTest.aspx site. Not sure if that will help you but I will keep you posted as to what Comcast tells me.
