Nokia :: 5800 Ovi Maps Beta For Mobile 3.03
Jan 21, 2010
How interesting. This is the release version of the Beta which loads of us have been using for months.These have been the supported phones up until now. Quote: Compatibility
Ovi MapsBeta works with compatible Nokia devices:
Nokia N97Nokia N97 miniNokia 5800 Navigation EditionNokia 5800 XpressMusic Now, ironically, the only one supported right now is the N97 Mini.I'm still running the Beta 3.03 on my N97, on FW 20.0.019. I wonder why the N97 and N97 mini have been running the exact same version until now, but the final version has not been made available for both at the same time. Obviously it doesn't need the new FW to work. Maybe it's just to save N97 users from 2 big updates in a week.By the way, I love the new interface, but it IS a shock, when moving from the old interface. Where is everything?Don't be discouraged, it's all there somewhere. It's just a different logic.

I have a mini. I downloaded and installed the Maps Beta 3.04, seems to work allright. Today I started Maps updater and it told me to update to version 3.03. I aborted the update to check here for advice. Is there a newer version than the Beta or isn´t it compatible with the Maps updater?

I've bought a new 5800 Xpress music recently and have three questions with Ovi maps:
1. I don't see any satellite (photo) maps when selecting the satellite mode in the display options; instead, the map is just filled with a pattern of alternating dark green and light green linear areas. How do I enable real satellite data, as shown in the attached picture?
2. The update speed of the map when navigating on foot or by car seems very slow. Is there some way to increase / improve this?
3. The phone doesn't seem to recognize really well if I hold it vertically or horizontally. Can I improve that behavior, or switch between manually?

Looking at my Installed Applications on my 5800XM I realised that there are the following two entries:
Nokia Maps 9MB
Ovi Maps 7MB
Are they supposed to be both there? Shouldn't the Nokia Maps application have been overwritten when updated to Ovi Maps? Can I manually remove the Nokia Maps application to free these 9MB of C: memory?

bitstream unveils the second generation of the acclaimed bolt mobile browser, the most fully featured mobile browser, now featuring tabbed browsing.
press release:
marlborough, massachusetts – march 23, 2010 – 700 million pages viewed, 190 million minutes of video watched, 180 terabytes of data transferred, and over 5 million users since bolt was first introduced in february 2009, bitstream inc. (nasdaq: bits) today announced beta availability of bolt 2.0, the next generation of the bolt mobile browser, the most fully featured browser for mobile phones of all types. among the new features in the bolt 2.0 beta version is tighter integration with facebook – by far the most popular domain visited by bolt users around the world – including the ability to use facebook’s instant messaging service and to seamlessly copy text or links and post them to a facebook account directly from within the bolt browser. the most important new feature of bolt 2.0 is the addition of tabbed browsing, letting people simultaneously browse multiple websites and easily switch between them.
each new version of bolt becomes more exciting to announce, said anna magliocco-chagnon, president and ceo of bitstream. we are closely listening to our end-users through our user forum, our twitter and facebook pages, and their comments on blog posts and articles, and they are guiding our development roadmap in important ways. it is this close relationship we are building with our users to which we attribute our stunning growth. bolt added 1 million new users in the last five weeks alone. like its predecessor, bolt 2.0 is engineered to run on mobile phones of all types, from low-end feature phones to high-end smartphones. bolt is the only major webkit-based cloud computing browser and is built to deliver a pc-like browsing experience on mobile phones. the second generation of bolt maintains all the features of the first generation bolt browser, including many that no other mobile browser offers:
perfect rendering of web pages on any class of phone, scoring 100 percent on the web standard’s project acid3 test. streaming video from many of the world’s most popular video sharing websites, including Internet, myspace, blip.tv and metacafe, as well as websites that stream videos such as cnn, espn and any website with embedded Internet videos. super fast download speeds. copy and pasting text. built-in integration with twitter and facebook. password manager. download/upload manager. ability to run web-based applications written in ajax, javascript and other web programming languages, ranging from google docs to mafia wars. the inclusion of widgets, standalone mobile applications that are run directly from the browser, such as a weather app, calendar app, calculator, twitter client and others. these widgets let people using any phone take part in the mobile apps revolution.
best of breed over-the-air data compression, resulting in faster load times and decreased data usage. patented split screen viewing to make surfing complicated web pages simple, and viewing content on the smallest of screens easy. additional notable upgrades in bolt 2.0 include a faster widget gallery with updated user interface and a server upgrade to webkit 4.03. bitstream has made bolt extremely easy to use, with keyboard shortcuts to quickly navigate pages and scale up and down through the browser’s six levels of magnification. comprehensive instructions on how to use all of bolt’s many features can be found at http://boltbrowser.com/faq.html. bolt is free to download and works on any mobile java (j2me) phone (approximately 75 percent of the estimated 4 billion phones in use today). handset manufacturers and wireless operators looking to preload bolt on their mobile phones can license a custom version of bolt built for any operating system or platform.
recognizing that some mobile phones currently in use cannot support the full size applications and some network providers limit the size of application downloads, bitstream also offers a light version of the bolt mobile browser, bolt litetm. bolt lite contains all the essential features of the bolt mobile browser, retaining bolt’s feature-rich functionality, best-of-breed download speeds and desktop pc-style page layout in a smaller package optimized for entry-level devices. the bolt 2.0 beta can be downloaded for free at:
http://boltbrowser.com/beta/download.html. people can still download bolt 1.7 and bolt lite for free at http://boltbrowser.com.n)

Can anyone help.... Nokia 5800 with latest firmware v40.. Had Nokia maps 3.01 and the compass was enabled in "MY POSITION" where we could either have it align north or align according to the route we take.Now downloaded maps 3.03, but the compass is stuck with the map facing north. Any amount of tapping on the compass is of no use. I went thru the manual and it says that we need to tap on the compass to either align the compass to the direction of travel, but it is of no use... When using either Drive to or Walk to function, the map is aligned to the direction of travel, but when we stop navigation, the compass is stuck back again facing north.Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have nokia 5800 XM with recent firmware version. Downloaded and installed ovi maps 3.03 but when i'm trying to open the program it shows startup screen and closes automaticly. Tried to uninstall it and install once more, restore phone to factory settings, but the same problem. Previous version (not free) of ovi maps is working fine on my phone. The same problem on my friends phone nokia 5230. Both phones are in bought in Latvia, not locked with any operator and have dafault nokia firmware, not any specific operator software. But if previous wersion worked on my phone then the new version must work too, i think so, but it's not working

The GPS feature and Nokia Maps icon in the menu would suggest that the Nokia 5800 supports maps. My aim is to transfer maps onto the phone's memory card so I will not require an internet connection to use the feature. In Nokia PC Suite, clicking Maps takes me to a page that tells me to download Nokia Ovi Suite. I won't bore you with a rant on how bad my experience Ovi Suite is (it is terrible), but the end result is that clicking download on a map appears to transfer it to the phone, but no maps appear on the phone.
I recall there used to be a separate piece of software that allowed downloading and transferring of maps, but I cannot find it. Nokia appear to have removed it from the website, which is a shame, because it worked.
Is there a piece of software that is able to transfer maps to the 5800. Failing that, is there a way to transfer maps manually?

Just installed the free ovi maps on my 5800. The maps are out of date. My estate was built in 2001 and doesn't show on the maps. I also have Google maps on my 5800 and maps and photo of my estate are there. Even my 3 year old navman in-car shows my estate. Mmmm free and oout of date. I'll stick to Google maps.

I updated my Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic firmware to the latest version yesterday and I also installed the latest Ovi maps through Ovi Suite and everything installed successfully. However, when I go to maps on my phone, the GPS and satellites are working fine, but I can not see any maps appearing on my phone - just a grey/pale green background appears instead of the maps. Only if I zoom all the way out, then the world globe starts to appear, and then disappears as I try to zoom back in.

there are few things that should be better, for instance I can't use Ovi Suite as it doesn't support synch with Lotus Notes yet, so I still use PC Suite. Now I'm becoming crazy and maybe someone can give me some explanation. I tried to download the maps with the Map Loader, I can see on the left part of the window a lot of maps, but I do not se any info on which map is already installed ! Is it normal? And moreover, I'm not convinced by the amount of memory left on my SD card, the map loader show an amount and Windows a competely different.. who's lying?

Bought 5800 which had mobile Facebook on the handset already. Added this as a homepage shortcut. Downloaded the OVI Facebook but didn't like it so removed it. A few months later I attemptedto download OVI Facebook App again but was advised I had to delete the Facebook install files from my handset.
Did this but have also accidentally deleted the mobile Facebook original App that was on the handset when purchased! Tried to re-download this from mobile Facebook site - but just get a blank screen? how to reinstall the original mobile Facebook App?

I was very disappointed with the new version of ovi maps (with free voice guided navigation) due to the fact than the new version did not turn the map in the direction of travel. It turns while a route search is made, but not otherwise. Its was a cool feature which was available in ovi maps 3.0. In 3D mode this was really cool. I wonder why nokia scrapped this useful feature. Anyone had similar issues ?I own Nokia 5800XM, v40.0.005.

I have updated my 5800 and downloaded maps. I have installed uk maps on the phone but I have no voice guidance. In the settings menu under drive guidance it states 'none' but when I select download nothing happens. Can I get voice guidance online and transfer it to the phone. Also why did the maps software not come with it when I remember selecting english as an option in the install process when I used my computer to install it on the phone.
