Nokia Lumia :: Maps Does Not Display Places On 710?
Jan 6, 2013
I am using Nokia Drive and Maps on Lumia 710. Say I want to go to a school in a particular area. I need to search for the name of that school and only then set my location. If I try to zoom in to that area on the map, I do not see the school or other places of interest/businesses in that area. This is irritating as in google maps, if I zoom into a location, I get all the businesses/areas on interest in that area. Am I missing something?. If not, then nokia maps needs to have this feature as it is very useful.
I have finally moved into the 21st Century and have had my 5800MX for about a month now.Type RM-356 Firmware Version 50.0.00.5
I have a problem with my Maps Application. Firstly I only have 9 icons on the Maps display page instead of the 10 that is shown on the Nokia website, I have found I do not have the Michelin guides........any ideas why?
I cannot download the Here and Now 2.0, it states that the Installation failed and have tried many times to reinstall it. Does this have anything to do with the missing Michelin Guide icon not being there?
I've turned it on it the advanced options and still it sends a message that "your location is temporaryily unavailable' and on BB maps, it just sits trying to find satillites.
Not sure if my Xoom is a "family edition" but its model is MZ601.Anyway, I am trying to replicate the functionality of Google Maps' My Places from my PC to my tablet.I can see my saved pushpins but can't make it so the left panel opens up, allowing me to see notes as well as pins. I also cannot edit anything in my saved Map.So far I have tried this in the default browser as well as with the default Google Maps app that came already installed.
When I use the google maps app that is pre-set to the iPhone all it does is send me to places that have the name of what I'm looking for on the map but when I reach the place where is supposed to be it's not there. I want to know if it is my iPhone that is broken or if the app is the problem because if it is my phone, it's unacceptable.
I just noticed this yesterday. In using Google Maps 5.6.0, I pressed on a place (local Pizza joint), selected the phone number, and the dialer comes up, but it does not populate with the phone number. Using the tab to call also does not populate the dialer.
I have a C5-00 5MP and I downloaded maps for walking ("with street names"). But Ovi Maps seems unable to get aware of it : the menu allowing to select the walking guidance voice in settings remains empty. The voices for driving guidance are displayed OK though.
I've noticed every once in a while my screen will display unsaturated, and each tile would look like it has a vignette around it. It almost looks HDRish. I've tried to get a screen grab showing this but then when I went to look at my screen grabs to show someone, and the screen grabs appeared normal, so definitely a display issue.
My Lumia 900's display suddenly went off. No, it didnt fall down or nothing of that sory happened. Everything else seems to be working, the phone is beeping on email alerts. I can connect to the computer and zune also shows it as connected. All the three buttons are lit as well. I tried restarting, hard reset everything - no improvement.Also tried restoring to previous version of software via Zune.
im am trying to hide SMS notification on the Display of my Nokia Lumia 800, because if i leave my Phone somewhere one the Table, everybody can read my sms and the sender. That is making me really nervous and i have always to hide my phone in my pocket. I searched over internet and in discussion board, also on troubleshooting page, but still couldn't find any help. Im using more than 12 years only Nokia and until now, i haven't experience any trouble like this. But since windows phone, i think everything is more complicated with Nokia Phones.
I've pressed quite many times a button accidentally just because my finger touched the screen for a very short time at wrong place. The display is so sensitive that it registers even the smallest touches.There should be an option to change the sensitiveness. For example the click event could be generated after the button is pressed 100 ms. This should prevent unwanted clicks.
I looked through the faqs and it said to go to update and add map while in the app. I can't find anything in the app that will let me update -__- Do I have to be connected to the pc? I can't run Zune because I don't have SP3. I would like to just use my wifi connection for this.
I can start to download them, then the process stops without any pop ups, so I start it again and it tells me it cannot reach maps at the moment. I've checked on wifi and 3G nothing seems to change.I was able to get the maps before I reseted my phone onto my xbox account.
I bought the phone 3 weeks ago and was shocked to find out it only worked online ... not at all the way it was advertised (imho).Nokia Maps ''always free of charge'' was the one big reason I decided for a Nokia loyalty rather then going to Samsung or Apple.
1. Is / will Nokia Maps be available soon for Lumia 800 in offline mode, like the good old Nokia I had for 4 years?
2. Is there a good alternative (is Drive really an alternative and is truly offline)?
3. If none of the above - which Nokia smartphone does work offline with Nokia Maps? I still have a week's time to bring it back to the store!
I was talking with the Rogers representative here in Canada, and he says the Lumia 900 doesn't support Name Display (as opposed to Caller ID). Is this true? Could it be possibly added via firmware changes?
I am using the lumia 800 for past 25 days. First I had battery problem, and Nokia Care replaced with new phone.
1. Display goes off when call/SMS/email receives. It happens more often with calls. However the call will not get disconnected and can speak till the caller disconnects.
2. After restarting of the phone there is no hint of call/SMS received when the phone was in display blank
3. I cannot pair with my windows 7 laptop via Bluetooth
4. I cannot receive any business card and not hint of reception of the same
I am trying to sync. favorites I create on maps.nokia.com with Nokia Maps 2.5.29.357 on my Lumia 900 (WP 7.5), but they will not transfer from the web interface to the phone. Favorites I create on the phone transfer just fine to my account on maps.nokia.com. Is there a way to "push" favorites to the phone from the web interface?
Since two days I own a Lumia 820 and provided a microSD card for my device. Now I'm searching for the settings to use ther microSD card space for downloading maps.
How can I configure my Lumia 820 to use the microSD for downloading maps?
I just got a new lumia 800, all the maps software on the phone do not rotate as I rotate the phone, even having the "rotate with my current direction" selected in the maps settings.
Managed to get all my old 120 favorites on N8 syncd to Nokia maps from [URL] Now, how do I search within the favorites? It just lists them in alphabetical order and no option to sort or search. If I display the favs on maps it is very slow and names do not appear?
I purchased a Nokia 610 today and am trying to download the UK maps in Nokia Drive. Have setup WiFi. Select the UK (All) map to download.At random points throughout the download process the app crashes and returns me back to the start screen.
I have removed and reinstalled the app with no change.
i am having a problem with my lumia 800. whenever i try to download maps in nokia drive, after the download starts and reaches around 20-25% , suddenly the home screen appears and i have to redownload the map. the problem is arising every time. I have lots of free memory so memory isnt an issue, my software is also up-to date.
I just got a WP7, and it's got an app called maps, and it can tell me where I'm at. I don't have a gps plan with ATT.does anybody know if it uses the phone's gps to find my location or does it locate my phone by some other means?
how to edit which information from the contacts that will be displayed when trying to call a contact? I cannot get anything else than Firstname, Company showed - which is not how I want this.
Furthermore I have found no way to lookup addresses in the Nokia Car navigator from contacts.
Maybe somebody knows if it's possible to set any Lumia phone to show name of person and company name when receiving incoming call.This is important if contacts are synchronized with MS Outlook and there are tens of Johns but working in different companies. If there is a field with a company name in it, suppose this would be a must to have an option to choose how to display contact when incoming call, i.e. just name or name with a company name.
Just went to a local Rogers store here in Canada to buy a new Nokia Lumia 900 with my friend.I noticed the grey software keyboard of the 900 seems "pinker" than my 800 keyboard, that and some other things.I also noticed the hardware buttons backlight on the 900 seems to be more "yellow" and they are pure white on my 800. Yellow backlights doesnt look as good as the pure white backlight hardware buttons on my 800 in my opinion.
