Nokia Navigation :: Compass Not Working For C6-01?
Oct 17, 2012
The inbuilt magnetometer on my phone seems to have developed issues. It does not work in maps. It is always greyed . In fact it should be aligned in The direction of The travel. It is always stuck at north at top. Is this a hardware issue or can it be sorted out by software reinstall?EVEN THE OTHER COMPASS APPS DONT WORK. I have downloaded compass touch from Nokia store. Anyone else with same issue? And yes, I had performed a hard reset (*#7370#) after belle refresh. Not sure whether this issue came up after this or it was there before.
The compass is not working on my Nokia C6-01.I cant calibrate it. Even other compass apps dont work. Nokia care staff reinstalled firmware, but the issue was not solved. They said it is a sensor issue and they will check whether this is in touch panel or the board itself. I just want to know whether sensor has any role to play in a compass. The Nokia care staff has no idea of what a compass is and how it works. He didnt understand the exact problem even after I showed it. I had to grab another similar phone and showed him how it works or should work. I am fed up with the failure of Nokia phones within a year or so. This is my 3rd handset in row to have developed issues. Seems better to move on to other phones.
I've the last version of nokia maps, but it happens always that the compass stop to work even if the icon is green and it lets me calibrate, also with other compass apps it happens.
After using newly updated Nokia Maps 3.8 in N8 for sometime the Compass has been greyed out all the time.Unable to enable it or atleast don't know how to.Also tried to reinstall maps but failed.Compass is working fine with Compass Lite .Having Symbian Anna with all the latest updates in my Mobile.
East and west are completely reversed, no matter how much I try to calibrate the phone. For example, if I'm facing north (which the compass recognizes) and turn to the right to face east, the compass actually turns to the left to point west...and vice versa. No problems whatsoever with north and south....just a 180degree reversal of east and west.
The compass in my E6, just upgraded to Belle, doesn't work at all in Maps 3.08 (not that it did in Anna, either), but does so just fine in Augmentra's excellent ViewRanger. At least it worked occasionally on the E72.Does the compass need to be deliberately switched on in Maps 3.08 in Belle?
I have the latest maps on my Nokia E55, v3.03 10wk01 b05 MW, map v. 0.1.23.112, but the compass is not working. I know it should have a green circle but the circle is alwasys white. Does it work automatically as I cannot find reference to it in the application. Also, the manual says you can input post codes for locations, but they are not recognised. Again, I can find no reference in the application.
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...
My Xperia X10's compass is not working. When I on the compass where i downloaded from market, it just still there and not moving at all. May I know what is the problem happen to my phone? I've tried calibrate using "Analog Compass" but still the same problem occur.
My GPS Navigation is not working. The maps are installed but in the 'positioning server' entry is empty. There is nothing typed in there and I dont know what to write. I have had some success on this site before, and would prefer to avoid Nokia support.Nokia E65, E71-2 (30) [410.21.010 RM-357]
When I try to use Maps the phone searches forever for a GPS signal. If I open Google Maps there is a message immediately saying that there is 'no GPS found'. It was working fine a few days ago.
The same thing happened a few months back and I got it going again somehow, but can't remember what I did. I can't find anywhere to turn it off and on, so can't work out what has happened.
Swing the "8" with the phone but nothing has changed.The compass circle is red.I tried it outdoors, away from any electrical appliances or or any large metal objects. When I bought e52, it was working but now it isn't working. Does it may from mechanic problem. What does the digital compass depend for right direction. Do I must any nokia service. Northpole compass aplication isn't working.
My Map or other 3rd party Compass apps is not working after ICS update. I have read from other threads, this problem is very common to others who updated from GB to ICS.
I just downloaded OviMaps 3.03 and tried to use the navigation. After a few seconds it asks me to allow for access to the online shop. As I'm living in Belgium (where data plans suck and are far too expensive), I declined, then it stopped the navigation (going back to the map with no more guidance). How to get the navigation functionality without data plan?
i updated my applications on my phone by using SW updater and i got the latest version of Ovi Maps navigation program, but after i formatted the phone for other problem , i found that the Maps program went back to the older version! i went to SW updater and i cant find the new one , please help me how i can get back the new Maps application .
I cannot locate by GPS in Map 3.08, even under open space. Learm from other source that Map 3.08 could have this problem on N8. I 'm not sure if re-installation can help but the phone cannot offer uninstall or re-install.in fact, I did drop my phone twice, not sure if GPS got broken. I don't know a way to find out.
After I updated my 700 to FP1 it has some serious problems. At first the maps won't open and after I fixed that it doesn't locate me even outside my house.. How to fix that?

My N85 seems to be still working however the cover navigation panel and buttons are not working. I can not press any button to answer. Basically all I can use is the Keypad. Is there something I can do to try to reset the phone or I have to get it sent to to get fixed?
