Nokia :: Ovi Maps Start But Closes Without Explanation
Jan 31, 2010
I have been using Nokia Maps 3 (free edition) for a short while on my Nokia 5800 v40.0.005 and have been happy with the new route directions etc. Suddenly, they have stopped working. The menu loads, stays visibe but unresponsive for a short time then closes. There are no error messages. I tried uninstalling Maps on my phone and have just finished re-installing them but to no avail. Can't think of anything else I have changed but have I missed something? Thanks, Paul. BTW, the positioning software with GPS still works as does everything else on the phone that I can see.
I have a N85 Navi which I bought less than a year ago. I updated this week the maps and the application (latest version)and added one voice for the navigation. After this update when I open the Maps and select Settings and Navigation (to change i.e. voice), Maps closes automatically without any error messages. I can open all the other settings sub-menus. Any ideas why this is happening? Do I have the to re-install the application, maps and voices?
N97 sim free (on Orange), version 2.0 software. Updated to OVI maps, the free ones from this site. Installed ok. When I open the app, it opens fine, then closes by itself after about 10 seconds! I have deleted and re-installed the software, I deleted the CIties file and QF files.
There is an update for my Nokia 700. I updated it to the newest firmware and updated Nokia maps to 3. version. After that I wanted to check the map update and when I open the Nokia maps it just shows that application is open and then after 3-5 seconds it closes. I really need to use Nokia maps.
Everytime I want to start maps ( nokia_maps_3.01_09wk44_b01_s60_3.1_lm_rom.sis) I get a system error and the program is terminated. I've located the new installer file (nokia_maps_3.01_09wk44_b01_s60_3.2_lm_rom.SIS) but it won't install. I did format the phone, and delete the cities folder and qf file.
Well, the title explains the situation best. Many people have encountered this same problem and most of them had the problem solved with a few exceptions. I guess I fall in the exceptions category.
I bought a C5-03 last month. I am planning to visit the UK and my flight is tomorrow. So I downloaded the map the whole UK with voice files for female voice and with street names, just a few days ago. I didn't install any app since then and didn't even connect to the internet with the phone. I used the system for few hours in total and got acquainted. Last night, when I entered Ovi Maps, it just closed after 3~5 seconds, without giving any chance to select any menu or option.
I browsed for solutions on the net but none of them worked. So far I have tried formatting the memory card, restoring factory settings, reinstalling phone software through Nokia suite 3.4 but none of them seems to work. Someone claimed the problem to be solved through reinstalling the OVI Maps software, but I couldn't even find any entry for Ovi Maps on my phone, neither on applications manager nor with other uninstallers.
After updating Ovi (Nokia) Maps, I am unable to start the maps application. I get the following error message: "Unplug the USB for using maps".Until now I had been using Maps offline without any problem - and any USB cable.(I would not think, that it's a service provider problem)
My Nokia C7 (C7-00 RM-675) uses 022.014 version of Anna, and the maps related installed application are the next:
after having done the migration from Nokia pc suite to Ovi, upgraded the Map software and loaded french map, i cannot use map software.I click on it, then it seems to launch, and after 2 seconds i come back to the menu. Impossible to uninstall the Map software
I've a L920 runing Maps (v2.9.39.70) and Drive+ Beta (v2.1.0.1451).I've imported my landmarks into Maps, but it is not shared with Drive+, so I have to first go into Maps and then choose the landmark I want to navigate to. The route is then displayed.How do I get Drive+ to open so I can get voice guidance?
I have problem with my Nokia E75. After reinstalation new version of firmware (2x) , I can`t start my ovi maps. When I try to reinstal ovi maps over Ovi suite or OC Suite , after download file to phone i see message. Is not possible install program unsupported, file extension sis or sisx.
Today I got an update for my E6. I installed it without any problems. But when I tried to start maps it doesn't start. On the screen there was only a message: maps - function not supported.Is it a bug or a feature? Are Nokia updates tested? I mean by the company - not by users (customers)
I'm trying to set up my email on my new Admiral and I've run into a bit of a snag. I'm able to receive emails just fine, but it appears I'm having no such luck trying to send even a test message. Given I have no problems doing so in Outlook, Thunderbird, and on my old Blackberry, I have to believe there is something android related that's giving me complications. I'm using the standard android email application (No Hotmail/Yahoo/Gmail) for an IMAP email account (No Enterprise/Corporate Sync/etc.).
I have entered the server info, port info, username info identical to what appears on my outlook/thunderbird server settings to no avail. If I was given some sort of error message when the email is not sent I would post it, but the only thing that happens is I get a notification on the top bar saying "Email not sent". If I try to access the message to get insight on an error, I am simply redirected to the email message in the outbox with no explanation.
this question has been raised by several people, but no matter how much I read I can not find a solution. The problem is raised, but nobody sais: "yes you can do this, by doing this and that," OR "no, you can not do it, it is not possible".I bought a BB 9780 bold in the recent days. I is a used device, I bought it in a GSM store, it was wiped, therefore completely empty. I refreshed OS6 to the latest version, set everything I could, but I can not get 2 applications to work:BB Maps and Windows Live Messenger.
Maps is simply missing, no matter how many times I install it, it is installed. I do not have a BIS data plan yet, I use the general data plan from my provider. Unfortuntely I can not get a BIS at the moment, for technical reasons.As I understand t can be a problem of service books. Not having a BIS however, I can not ask my carrier for BB service books.Any solutions, ideas? (here I mention, that I downloaded BB links app, and it shows the maps app, I could even start it, but it is a blank screen, however it proves the app is there, but problem must be with provisions/authorization).
My other problem is Windows live messenger, which runs perfectly, except for not logging in. When I put my login credentials, it sais: "Service not enabled for this handheld." So it is not working, I am sure it is also a question of provisioning.I used to use BB in past, some with an sometimes without BIS, and both applicatioins worked fine on those devices. This leads me to the conclusion, that the issue is a question of settings, not devices or BIS plan availability.
Just bought a new Bold 9700. I've run every kind of update possible. BlackBerry Maps IS loaded (v5.0.0). The operating system is the latest. I can see BlackBerry Maps in the add-on applications, yet there's no icon to start the application. The vendor is utterly useless when it comes to helping resolve the issue. The GPS seems to work and gives the correct location data, yet I can't find a means to start the BlackBerry Maps application.
When I use the web browser on my new E72 it closes unexpectedly and somewhat randomly.All software is up to date. I discovered that if I go to the following website I can make it close/crash every time:
I have an X6 and have installed ovi suite. It has worked fine for a couple of weeks and I have been able to succesfully transfer media such as pictures and music.
Now when I click to start up ovi suite it loads the first white page then closes without any error messages. The OVI icon on the bottom right taskbar disapears when I hover the mouse over it. It will not start. I'm getting really sick of this phone and the software.
Does anyone know why this problem is occuring? Every other device I connect regularly (such as ipod, sony ericsson and 2 external HDDs have not suddenly stopped working) so why has this cheapo Nokia suddenly become incompatible?
Like the title says, my 5230's web browser crashes whenever I try and load a forum thread, I was able to do this a while ago and I've not run out of data or anything, there are no music files, no photos, no apps on the phone. I have reset the settings to factory but nothing has helped.I'm starting to get fed up of this phone, it has good navigation properties but that is just about the only thing it has going for it now.
I have a Nokia 5530 since christmas with latest firmware update. My problem is that when i click into the Internet, the screen just flashes and automatically closes. I tried it with connecting to Ovi Store and the same thing happens. I am using my wireless modem to connect to the Internet and it has never once given me a problem, just today it started acting up. Another detail is when i use other applications such as Software Update or using Ovi maps, it will download easily, but just wont open web pages even though it is connected,
I have a nokia 5530 xpress music mobile - (Christmas present) and was wondering when any new firmware is going to be released; The native browser just closes on its own (sometimes active sometimes inactive) The phone is a little slow loading up and menus (know this may be down to apps etc and memory card) The shortcut icons disappear sometimes from the homescreen (causing a reset to rectify) and when I change them the shortcut on the far right changes itself back to facebook The phone sometimes gets stuck on a white screen at startup which can only be solved by removing the memory card and starting up then reinserting There are a few more minor things but they don't really matter but I have noticed the touchscreen can be quite unresponsive needing quite firm touches or repetitive touches (yes I know some things require double touch) I was also wondering why my phone keeps disconnecting from the wifi source (I have a standard home router) - I know some routes 'refresh' themselves however I don't have problems with my computers or laptops (yes I know its different hardware) Done get me wrong its a good phone, with great features and I am not complaining however I just expected less obvious faults not ones that can cause disruption in normal day-to-day use URL...
I am using Nokia Maps 3.03 on my E71 (language: German) plus Nokia Map Loader 3.0, but I am experiencing several problems: Nokia Maps goes online via Internet for a few seconds (which costs me) although I set it to my Wireless connection. How can I switch that off? Every time I load a new map (and voices) via Map Loader and then start the software on my E71, it tells me that the maps are out-dated and I need to delete them. But then I do not see any maps in the software, and also the load of the voice is gone.
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 updated today to Maps 3.01. (To be noted that Ovi Suite still considers there is a new version of Maps available and would download and install 3.01 again any times I click on update.) When starting Maps the load screen with progress bar appears, then I can see an "empty" map. No keys work. After a few seconds (around 10 or so) the phone restarts.I deleted Cities folder and the file QF, rebooted, reinstalled etc. nothing helps.
The maps in my Nokia X6 16gb are gone after i ran an update in which it says will delete the old maps and voices to replace newer ones. Upon completion of the update, when i checked maps that are available in my device,Instead of new updated maps, there is only 1 map left which is Hong Kong and Macau, and i don't live in either one of it. Tried downloading the maps through the Ovi Suite, always got the message "The connection to the Ovi Maps server timed out"
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?
About a month ago I bought the Nokia 5800 as I wanted the free Sat Nav, I have version 3.01 on the phone, when I phoned Nokia about something else I asked them about version 3.03 and they told me I could not install this until I had used all the days of my 10 free trial, then I was to ring them again and they would help install it for me, after 55 minutes on the phone we had no joy, so I decided to try myself and did it first time. Now the question I need answered with your help is, I am going to Italy in June and when I open the GPS (offline) it works fine in the UK where I live, and when I input the town Pisa, Italy it finds it on the maps, does this mean that the Sat Nav will work in Italy or is this just a map?
When you download version 3.03 does it download all the maps?Also is there anyway I can find out which maps I have on the phone?
using Ovi Maps 3.03. Sorry if this has been asked already but a couple of things :How do I check what maps are actually installed on my phone?How do I know if there are newer map versions available than whats installed on my phone?Im asking this because I noticed the Ireland map on maps.ovi.com is more up to date than whats on my phone. I installed the Ireland map again using ovi suite on my pc but it's still missing some new details that are found on the maps.ovi.com map.
I`ve tried to upgrade my Nokia 6210 Navigator from Nokia maps 2.0 to Ovi maps 3.01 but it. Doesn’t seems to work. If i try to upgrade it with the old Nokia map updater it just says: Cannot get enough information about the phone unspecified error. Can anyone tell me if this is possible? I also get a error message when i try to use this file that ovikovi posted (http://static.s2g.gate5.de/nokiamaps client/nokia_ maps_3.01_09wk44_b01_s60_3.1_lm_rom.sis). The error message that shows up in the phone is: It doesn’t work to install this file, the unit is built in! And in Ovi Suite it says: The file is in use. Another application is using nokia_ maps_3.01_09wk44_b01_s60_3.1_lm_rom.sis /I´ve also tried to uninstall the version og Nokia maps that is installed on the phone but that doesn’t seems to be an option ! Any one who has a clue of something that can solve my problem?
