:fry: Nokia had a big announcement planned for today. News just came out: Free Ovi Maps Premium, aka free turn by turn just like android. Except wait, maps can be saved to your device so the service can work totally offline. :tup: > **[Nokia Strikes Back at Google With Free GPS App](https://www.pcworld.com/article/187341/Nokia_Strikes_Back_at_Google_With_Free_GPS_App.html)** > > Premium version of Ovi Maps will be available for free, but only on select handsets. EDIT: Looks like it’s for a limited number of devices in a limited number of countries. Looking for a workaround now… ---

It’s about time. I’ve had all of North America stored on my phone for years, just without turn-by-turn. But I’ve also never been in a situation where I was lost and needed turn-by-turn, I just needed a peak at the map to figure out where I was. Network-dependent maps never made much sense especially when phone / memory card memory is so large now. ---

no E71, damn it. Honestly though, I ever need anything, google maps works in a pinch. my car, or rentals have navigation systems already. would be nice to have, but not really that big of a deal. ---

So do any of you guys use your Nokias as your MP3 players? I do with mine, but I get a disturbing amount of white noise. It’s a constant hiss during an audiobook, and it ruins any song that doesn’t have background sound. ☹ ---

LOL I got no noise on first 3 Tours, music included. :2fingers: But I do miss -better sound quality (when it worked) -better camera -better keyboard -way better FB app -and better screen -BB messenger a little bit -3.5mm headphone jack -the really good speakerphone I don’t miss: -The size of a non e-series phone -the shitty build quality -the lock button that doubles as an unlock button that’s right on top of the phone where it’s easy to bump of all the stupid fucking things -the lack of tasks on the home screen -BB’s don’t work with my Overdrive audio-book rental library app 🤓 I dunno, I may come back to BB some day.

You must not be fat enough. My tour unlocked all the damn time. I wanted to just disable it and lock it via software like the phones without dedicated lock buttons worked, but that was no dice. The only workaround was to add a 4 digit password. :tif: ---
