You may want to check 'Sw update' on your Nokia S60 3rd Edition or 5th Edition phone, as it seems that there's a pre-Nokia World 2010 update available for all phones, fixing minor bugs (including correcting and enhancing Nokia's Wi-Fi location system) and possibly preparing the way for additional services. It's a full 8MB update and installs over the air. There's no change in the basic version number (3.4) but it's now up to build '278'. More shortly.
Read on in the full article.
How is it updated from wk32 (which was recently) to wk17 (almost three months before...)
I did wonder myself. Have switched around - Rafe might like to double check/confirm?
Steve, I think you were probably running an old version somehow. I already have the version showed in your right screensnap and its been ages since I have upgraded to 3.04.
wk 32 is the latest version - built just over three months after wk 17. Apologes if I did not make that clear.
Look at the last number too - b07 to b03, presumably a minor build number or something.
My N86 always keeps the GPS on whenever i close the maps application after using it.
Any solution??
Has anyone had any problems updating Ovi Maps on an E90 recently?
I keep getting a "Cannot get enough information about the phone" error, even though it successfully identifies that an E90 is connected...
I think I'm right in saying the E90 does not support the new version of Ovi Maps - that might be the issue?

I had the same issue on my wife's N86, product code: 0586595 ('Country Variant Germany DE Indigo Black' which is unbranded) FW21.006.209.01.
This update is fixing this problem for me, the GPS antenna icon disappears immediately after closing Ovi Maps.
However, after installing this newest version, my '+More' functionality disappeared from my available options within the app. In the Netherlands it didn't add much though, but it was available untill I ran this update.
Any more experiences on this?
Be careful doing an update .. you may end up with a constantly rebooting phone.
The N8 can't get here soon enough!
Folks, think you might like this 😊

Does this update use up 9MB of disk space or will it overwrite things that are already there?
hey folks!
if you use an n97 please dont start ovi maps before you deactivated the wlan option! if you dont do you will everytime reboot your device 😉
I keep getting a not enough memory error when I try to install the update. Unable to install it.
I tried using the Nokia Ovi Suite and I get a network connection error.

Good that it can show what the N8 can do but ideally zoom on a nav device should be a one handed action.

It is a one-handed action. Last time I checked, there are multiple fingers plus a thumb on most hands with which you can pinch zoom.
hope Nokia update map for indonesian..

last time I checked I could pinch with one hand..
1. choose a finger
2. move to oppose thumb
optional 3. repeat

OK but for those of us with opposable thumbs, where is the phone whilst you are using multiple fingers on one of your hands?

Right then. So you hold the phone in one hand, and complete the above procedure with the other.
Carefully count the number of hands involved.
Be careful not to miscount, I can see from your post that you can count at least to 3, so if you try really hard you can keep up.
Now, imagine you are out on foot in a large crowded city using your phone to navigate, in one hand you have a heavy item, or are holding the hand of a small child. On the other you are trying to zoom the map. What would be easier, pinch zoom or just placing the tip of your thumb briefly on a + or - icon?
Guys, I think what our unregistered friend means is that with pinch and zoom you have to hold the phone in one hand and use the finger and thumb of the other to pinch. He wants it in a way where he holds the phone in one hand and uses the thumb of the same hand to zoom in or out. That ways the other hand is free for whatever he wants to use it for. LOL... 😃

This latest minor update fixes this issue on my N86.
where is the update for: Nokia 6110 Navigator
Updated my E72 via 3G Vodafone Romania. All Ok with the "new" maps app.

Oh dear. Isn't the answer obvious? Look at the video. There are still the '+' and '-' buttons for one handed zoom, if the phone is mounted in a cradle on your car dash board for example (and panning in that situation is still one handed anyway).
I let Ovi suite synch in the background and then I heard a dialling sound. I panicked thinking that it was doing the desktop equivalent of a pocket call. Is this a new feature? If so, I don't like it.

Were you also surfing? There are some really annoying banner ads around that make a dialing sound recently. Doubt its Ovi Suite.
Same problem here, I can't even install the update on my N97. Apparantly, I don't have sufficient memory. The update is about 9Mb and I figure it has to install over the old Ovi Maps, so it shouldn't even take up an extra 9Mb. Seeing that my C:-drive has about 18Mb free, why am I getting the 'Out of memory' error?
Nokia had better release a very good v30 firmware for this thing, or my long love for Symbian will be forfeit with my next phone purchase...
