Nokia Maps keeps telling me to go online and when I do it keeps telling me I´m searching in
offline mode. I can use the phone to surf using local operator sim
On holidays in Spain and just bought a months navigation liscense.
Using v 30.0.019 phone software,
Maps v2.0 wk32 b04
Nokia server is --- supl.nokia.com
Anybody suggest something Im missing
thanks

Have you checked
Options > Tools > Settings > Internet > Default access point

Where are you entering the settings for the Nokia server ?

Settings>General>Positioning - is where this setting is. I have´nt changed it, just quoting what is set there.

Can't think of anything besides re-installing the Nokia Maps ?

I´m on holidays so re-installing is not an option really.
But thanks anyway. Bit of a bummer after paying for a months licrnse, and the search offline is really poor.

Now I kinow what went wrong, but I don´t understand how. When I bough license for Maps I was using Spanish SIM, and as far as I know I opted to tie license to SIM, but lo and behold the SMS acnowlegement came to my Meteor SIM, ( I carry 2 phone when abroad). Where they got this number rom I don´t know. Anyway like I said navigation + voice works. It´s just online search which is not av ailable. Trying to contact Nokia Spain by phone now as my emails to cus care are not being answered.

i'd just go with Google Maps for the search - glad to hear you're getting there.
Voice nav saved my bacon on our last holiday

Your right, didn't think of "Gogle Maps" have it on the phone too. Cam't see the wood from the trees,etc. Funny even online with Maps on WiFi it doesn't list one of he major theaters in Malaga when I'm standing in front of it. Haven't used Google Maps for search, but will see if it shows up.

Voice nav! that english accent telling continually where to go, upsets my Irish sensibilties, but have used it find filling stations when stuck

P.S. Tried search in Google Maps, great results and plenty of them. Wonder how it handles mispellings?
