Re: Help With Maemo Mapper
 
I suggest you try the openstreet maps which are open source and always available. Google has changed the the URL a few times and my bet is that is your problem.

Do you have enough disk space?

I was trying with google, could that have been the problem ??
Should i just work with yahoo maps now ??
Hi, if you managed to download a piece manually, did you check if auto download is switched on? It should be at the bottom of the menu where all you maps are listed

Mapper will use the map tiles from the source specified in the Maps menu. Select Openstreet and it will be used. Map downloads are performed when you view an area for which you already haven't retrieved a map.

I understood that, what i am saying is, i canīt select openstreet, i have all the options of maps, like everyone else has, but instead of openstreat i have the option of choosing NLS.
I have no idea if NLS is the same as openstreet, so no my other question is, do i have to download openstreet, or is NLS the same as openstreet ???

thanks

I doubled checked myself and indeed only one map source can be selected at a time. Selecting a new source un-selects the old source as indicated by a bullet dot.

NLS is the topografy map of Finland. It only covers Finland and works only there. If you are outside the map area it tells you "Map download failed" or similar.

Openstreetmap is completely different and covers the whole world.

Hi, I'm not trying to change subject here, and I understand and respect people who prefers MM.
However, why don't you try Wayfinder?
If you try the following:

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...FINDER&page=26

This guy qwerty12 made things very easy to use it.
You only need the Net once to get a trial for 7 days.
You can get it working in a short time (aside the maps download of course)

Good luck!
