I love my N900 but the Maps application drives me crazy. Maybe OVI means crap in Finnish?
I've tried pinning the map with that compass gadget, but as soon as you let go of it the map spins again. I for the life of me am confused what that compass thing is for. This is a shame actually because the upgrade fix a number of my complaints with OVI maps.

Maemo! There's a BUG for that!

Sorry, couldn't resist, admittedly a low shot!

If the Maps app were what it should be and the Bluetooth reception didn't suck, I would be happy as the proverbial clam!

But ovi-maps seems to be partially written in JavaScript. Have set orientation=0 in /usr/share/nokia-maps/html/javascripts/nokia.maps.js and it seems like the maps are locked north up now.

Very interesting find, looks like Ovi Maps is a WRT/Webkit based app.
Done by gate5, the German Navi company (smart2go) they acquired >3 years ago.

Was this where you set 0?

var orientation=map.PRESERVE_ORIENTATION

No. It was something like that:

if(typeof aPosition.orientation=="string"}{orientation=0}els e{orientation=0}

Sorry, don't remember exactly what I have changed in this file but created a patch for that.

Usage:
bspatch nokia.maps.js nokia.maps.js.new patchfile

MD5 sums:
aa908f6d9a422088d9bcd09ed5640307 nokia.maps.js.old
7fae57916df6739e8dcb38291487b167 nokia.maps.js

15241c15241
< orientation = (aPosition.orientation + 360) % 360

Used JavaScript-Beautifier-0.17 to be able to use diff to compare the files.
