Nokia Beta Labs

Is there anything being done about the new zealand maps?? There used to be a very limited version (7mb file)... with beta 2.0 this is now 0.7mb (only an outline map!).

Please please do something about the new zealand maps!

Hi Tommi,

I hope that the developers will post another reply soon. I've made may many suggestions and bug reports now about Nokia Maps 2.0, and it would be good to have more of them responded to.
It would also be great to know when we might get a new beta with some of the reported bugs and issues fixed.

Thanks, Geoff

still waiting for a release for the e-series devices. Likd the E61 devices :(

Forget the E61 won't you guys?

One thing I'd like would be a gps activity indicator, like the memory card indicator in newer FP2 phones and the bluetooth icon. A little satellite icon flashing when trying to get a fix and still when fixed.

Would be much better then have to keep maps (or whatever app that uses gps really) in the foreground to see when it's fixed. Or to see if there is any background app trying to access the gps hardware that you don't know (Location Tagger and google maps, for instance)

where version for devices based on S60 3rd???? (not FP1)

Ditto on the post above, Markus.

I live in New Zealand as well and am shocked to find there is now just the outline in the new beta.

Are we EVER going to get proper road maps & navigation in New Zealand? We're smaller than Australia, yet we still don't have nav maps here!! C'mon NOKIA!

P.S maybe nokia beta labs should have a bug tracker site for people to report bugs!

How can we modify the interval GPS samples are taken? When im travelling with bike with some speed theres too much distance between points (bad when theres a lot of changing directions) Couldnt it be a function of velocity for example?

Sorry, i was talking about Sports tracker, not Nokia Maps

Hi,

My phone is Nokia E51, it has Nokia Maps 1.2.

After I install Nokia Maps 2.0 beta, the map becomes blue color! How can I change map color to original one??

Plese go below URL to see the blue color map of Nokia Maps 2.0 beta:

Please help me to fix this problem, thanks!

I second the request for a decent NZ map. The beta might be completely useless, but version 1 is unusable as well - it seems about 30 years out of date.

At least on one zoom level, the road seemed to to be placed wrong, near Salo, I didn't drive on water even though it was Easter :)

Tracking mode would also be nice feature!

Is this the place you want the bugs to be reported?

I found one: I tried to organice my landmarks and I created folder Helkilöt, application crashed. It worked out fine without ö-letter.

Dear Nokia team,

I've noticed a big problems of Nokia map beta compared to the previous version:

Cannot search for itinary in offline mode... In the previous version, i could seach for itinary from any address to any address (just like google map), and i could even have the navigation simulator, all without being connected to GPS.

Well, this is just a feedback, and I hope that this problem will be solved for the released version...

I have the 6120 running maps 1.2, when try to update to maps 2 I get error message update error.
Any idea how to work around that?

Am I right in thinking that under Maps 2.0 I can't get even a list of directions without a GPS receiver? I;m not asking for turn by turn as I travel, as that would obv require GPS, but a list of route guidance instructions once you give two locations a la Google Maps absolutely should be critical feature.

if it is present, it is extremely well-hidden.

otherwise, great job!

I just removed hard format the phone installed the version 2 and it works.
Now I want to add a new icon to show with the cameras speed, how can I do that? help please.

The New Zealand maps are very very poor please update the maps, some streets which are over 20 years old don't exist on the map.

hmm.. usefull info :)
