Nokia said that free GPS navigation on Ovi Maps will be available on Nokia N97 mini, 5800 XpressMusic, 5800 Navigation Edition, E52, E55, E72, 5230, 6710 Navigator, 6730 classic and X6. More Nokia GPS phones will be added later. However, for now, Nokia's flagship smartphone N97 will not have this feature, but it will be on way. N900, the Nokia phone featuring Maemo, a version of Linux, also won't have free Ovi Maps GPS navigation.
Instructions
Run Nokia Maps on your phone once before you add any maps or voices. This will create the required folder structure on your memory card.
Unzip the downloaded map files and drop them into the appropriate folders on your memory card.
On my Nokia the folder structure is cities with a subfolder called diskcache, filled with 16 subfolders called0 to 9 and a to f, and each of these folders have another 16 subfolders 0 to 9 and a to f.
Map files have the extension .cdt. Example:
[memory card]\cities\diskcache\[0-9, a-f]\[0-9, a-f]\filename.cdt
• On some Nokia phones (like the N95) maps are stored in:
\Private\20001f63\diskcache\[0-9, a-f]\[0-9, a-f]\filename.cdt
• To install, just drop the 16 folders called 0-9 and a-f into the diskcache folder.
• If your phone has both folders, get a small map (for a single country) and try both folders to see which one works. Even Nokia's own map loader doesn't always get it right. Details on the Nokia discussion board.
