  15. If you are havin problems with the maps and voices, just copy "cities", the whole carpet from another S60v5 (wich has already Ovi maps and voices), like 5800 or even S60v3, I took it from my N95 8GB, it was copy-paste, and my Satio has the maps, they work good

    ReplyDelete
  16. Brilliant. All worked a treat as per your instructions. Genius!! Don't suppose you know how to use the remote drives option in the connectivity menu. can it be used to access shares on my local network. Sony Ericsson are not very forthcoming with my support request on this issue

  23. Hello.
    I want to have only 2-3 country of Europe installed on my Vivaz. How do I merge the downloaded folders into one folder? When copying folder from country1 to the phone, it´s okay. Then, copying folder from country2 is problematic as it says that these folders are already existing on my phone...
    I do not want to install complete Europe.
    Please help

  28. On SATIO everything working,if you wanna use real time navigation then it cost 9,99 euros/year,big thanks,great job.

    ReplyDelete
  29. i'm happy i found the problem for certificat error on my vivaz, the problem as the Admin sayed: i signed first the ovi map,then i saved it, i reopened the Sistool and and signed the license manager without deleting the first signed nokia maps, sign the license manger and Package in the right corner of License manager after you add the profile you will see the value 1, you should have Nokia map value 1 and License manager value 1.Succes, save the signed file and then install on memory card,then open the ovi map it will do something,after that exit,locate the folder called Cities,than copy the content of map downloade from above(country,the folders with 0,a,b, etc. over the original). It's done, sorry for my english.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I forget to tell you after you sign and save the ovi maps, open the Sis(sign program)and open file choose the earlier saved sis with the map signed and then sign the license manager.

    ReplyDelete
  31. works perfectly! thanks a lot!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Ok... My two cents:

    I installed on my Satio. I had no programs installing it, and I've added maps for Sweden.

    Here's what's not working, though:

    If I try to go online, it hangs and quits. And after that, I need to reinstall to even get in again.

    I can't search for a street address. If I put any street name in the search, it won't find it. Again, this is done in offline mode with the map package I downloaded...

    I can, however, search for a restaurant name or car dealership name.

    So... And ideas?

    ReplyDelete
  33. Hi!
    I've exactly the same problems like Samuel on my Vivaz Pro.

    I cannot go online, if i try i've to reinstall... And i cannot find streets, only points of interest.

    I've no solution atm.

    Best regards,
    Nils

    ReplyDelete
  34. First Problem Solution

    If you cannot find streets with ovi maps, thats because you need an aditional index for every map!!! The downloader loads it automaticlly but if you want to use the other way go to:
    http://discussions.europe.nokia.com/t5/Maps-Navigation-and-GPS/New-Ovi-Maps-version-0-1-24-114-are-out/td-p/686081
    and install the files to cities\diskcache\ClientIndex

  42. hi, amazing, thanks.

    Just a question...any way to get the "own voice: app for this on my vivaz too?

    ReplyDelete
  43. I only pick up GPS signal not map at all
    why

    ReplyDelete
  44. Thanks..excellent work.

    Finally put it on VivazPro however, question is what might the quicker way to 'merge' two different region of maps. Too many folders to deal with.

    Shared...noticed if the app close itself in seconds, it likely exposed to internet, so reinstall might help..for failing cert, I sign it via the provided tool, then sign it again outside the tool but with same cert/key that I have for my cell, it works...not sure why anyway.

  55. Looking for the maps of Europe to download, for my old phone. Official sites of Nokia maps and Ovi don't work anymore, only Here We Go, but it doesn't fit. Looks like the links posted here are dead already. If anyone could help with these - please post the archives again. At least, the map of Ukraine, please.
