I used to have a 8900 and it had the 'compass logo' for navigation but my new 9300 bb doesn't have this. i already did the 'options, advanced options... refresh gps...' but there's no way to enter the gps application because it's not on my phone?
I bought a BB 9780 2months ago. I just realised that I do not have the navigation/map icon that should come in-built with the phone when brand new. How do I go about downloading the software/icon?
I'm finding that when I try to use the maps app to navigate it might start out giving me voice navigation but then drop it (rendering it virtually useless while driving). I then can't seem to figure out how to get the voice going again.
The Lumia 950, as you know, does not have capacitive buttons for back, Windows, and search. As such, the navigation bar appears at the bottom of the phone. Sometimes it hides by itself, but I have not found a way, unlike the HTC One M8 for Windows, for you to hide the buttons at will. This is especially troublesome when text messaging and I think I press spacebar, when in reality I pressed the Windows key. Even more troublesome that the Messaging app is so unreliable that when I return to it the app crashes.
I know we can't remove the maps v3.08 from our phone(mine nokia c7) itself because it is not showing in apps manager.But i found out an alternate way.I have not yet tried it ,but u can see if it works and tell us about it.For this use the "Nokia PC Suite v 7.1.62.1" and not nokia ovi suite on ur pc.If u go to application manager in the pc suite it shows all the apps installed including the nokia maps 3.08 and its other files also.
If instructions upon page 77 of N9 UG (Eng) not clear enough you do need to download appropriate voice file with street names as none installed by default.After you have chosen "Walking person" icon > Get directions > Navigate you need to tap upon grey tool bar at base of screen After selecting Voice Guidance > tap on select voice to reveal choices available.
I just submitted the following questions to Nokia Support, but hope to get some additional insight here.
I'm looking at buying the Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition Unlocked Phone and have a couple of questions.
If I don't activate the phone immediately with a service provider,
- will I still be able to have full access to the internet and email whenever a Wi-Fi network is available?
- and, will I also have full access to the GPS navigation facilities of the unit?
Does the 5800 Navigation model lack any features that are available with the 5800 XpressMusic model? The 'compare' function at the Nokia website seems to show the exact same specs for both models.
I recently had my phone changed from a 6720 to a C5-00 (company phone, and the company decided to change telco and the old phones were "locked").I have managed to move my microSD card across which has kept all my pictures, maps and other files. It did not move across the saved GPS places (favourites).I have been struggling to figure out how to do this (I have even tried finding likely files in the phone's memory using a USB link to the computer) and have had no success. Nokia Suite doesn't seem to acknowledge the existence of the GPS "places" (Nokia Suite 3.3.86)
How do I move these waypoints across from one phone to the other?
I planed a route on the Nokia Maps site with a couple of waypoints and some options (no toll roads, no motorways) to get it the way I wanted.
Then I did the synchronization of favorites on the phone and the route was there. But when I tried to open the route on the phone the "Calculating route" message appears and the route that shows up is COMPLETELY different from the one on the Nokia Maps: different roads, strange ways to get to the waypoints, ... In short I can not use this route on the phone as I would like.
Is there a way to transfer complete route AS IS from Nokia Maps to the phone Maps application?
I have used Ovi Map 3.03 with free navigation license.I have only one question, is it possible to change the map language to my local language (Thai) without changing the phone language? Example, now I set my phone language as English then my map shown in English else set phone language to Thai then map will show in Thai. Is it possible to used phone language in English but map label shown in Thai? because phone language in Thai has many incorrect translations.

I have somehow got rid of the 1 row navigation bar on the home screen of my blackberry and have been left with a little triangle which pulls up the entire menu instead. How can I go back to the original home screen?
I recently purchased a curve 9300. One of the main reasons i bought it was for the GPS navigation capabilities. It has maps, can show routes but has not active GPS navigation contrary to the adversiting. Please advice me on how to proceed. The following are some of the specs from the phones options menu.
A co-worker of mine recently had his blackberry tour replaced through verizon. He didn't have his phone backed up on his computer.........so they are gone. However...he does have his contacts in his navigation/bluetooth of his car. Does anyone have any idea on how to get the info from the car back his blackberry?
I have downloaded the "Own Voice" guidance for navigation but seem to have lost my setting it up. how to set up my own voice? By that I mean, to record my own voice? All I can do as of now is choose "Own Voice" in the Settings -> Walk/Drive -> Voice Guidance. But where to RECORD my own voice?
is it possible to use the satellite view during navigation? Is saw this with the Google Maps navigation app and I'm wondering now, if it's possible with Nokia Maps, too.
Maps 3.08 does not let me calibrate my compass (at least not by ticking once or twice at the compass). By consequence, while navigating it does not orientate the display with the top in the forward direction. I found a workaround by using a separate compass application, calibrate the compass there, and then Maps works perfect. There must be a easier way to calibrate the compass from within the Maps application.
My BlackBerry Curve 9300 track pad frequently does not work. When this happens I remove and replace the battery to reboot the phone. I sometimes have to do this up to six times before the track button starts working again. Once the button is working, within 10 minutes to half an hour the track button becomes inoperable again and I have to go through the same procedure again.
Curve 8900, T-mobile, OS 5.0.0.900 (Bundle 1626, Platform 5.2.0.96). I recently updated my phone to OS 5 after activating Blackberry data service with T-Mobile. After the update the was a GPS program in the "Downloads" folder included. I deleted the program by mistake. It was supposed to give voice turn-by-turn directions to the destination. What is the name of that program was and if it can be downloaded from App-world?
I am experiencing issues with the navigation button in my BB Curve8520. WIth ambient temperature over 35 degree the trackball does not work. Who shall I contact? I live in Germany but bought the BB in Switzerland.
Navigation used to work fine on my X6, but since having to do a hard reset of the phone (due to other problems!) I cannot use the Navigation.
Everytime I get the error 'navigation cannot start at this location' and it doesn't seem like the phone can ever pick up my location.I have tried un-installing and re-installing the application but to no-avail!I haven't even wasted my time calling Nokia Support, as they are totally useless!
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 time
My phone GPS Navigation is not working ...It is not receiving signals from satellites.i tried by activated all position methods assited & integrated GPS but still not working...
I've been trying to use the GPS navigation through NOKIA MAPS but it doesn't work, in my phone's screen appears "the license has expired" or something like that. I'd like to know what i've to do to make it work. Because Iv'e heard that tthe GPS navigation in other nokia models is free.
In the United States and using a Nokia Lumia 920. I think I have the latest Nokia Maps and Drive. Downloaded my maps so I basically use Drive in offline mode.
Overall very happy. Does Drive have turn by turn navigation wih specific names and exits? Right now it only says stuff like "turn now".
I installed Nokia Navigation 2.0 with some maps on my Lumia phone. But how can I find out the version of the installed maps? And how can I check the actual existing version of the maps on the Nokia server?
