Using Nokia Map Loader
Nokia Map Loader is a PC application that allows yous to download maps to your mobile phone. This will save you costs on data transfer and allow you to download maps for whole countries or areas in a single operation.
Nokia Map Loader will download maps from a Map server, through PC to one of the following:
- A memory card connected to your device via USB in data transfer mode.
- A memory card plugged into a PC via a memory card reader.
The Map Loader downloads and caches the list of available maps from the map server each time you start the application.
During the startup the application looks for a memory card that used with the Nokia Maps application before.
The Map Loader identifies a compatible memory card by searching for a cookie during the startup. The cookie is a file written by the maps application onto the memory card. The cookie contains information like size of the memory card, path to the map data on the memory card.
The Map Loader will only download a map of an entire country if the file size of the map is smaller than 60 MB. Maps larger than that will be split up into smaller regions.
