Just got my Nokia 770. I love it. I tried to download goole map but failed. I followed the instruction here, http://gnuite.com:8080/nokia770/maemo-mapper/.

and put a Google map address , http://mt.google.com/mt?n=404&v=w2.29&x=%d&y=%d&zoom=%d, in map repositories. after doing this, a small windows poped up, indicating "error in download".

Please help me.

Where did you get that URL format? It's too old. The problem is with the "v=w2.29" part - "w2.29" is an old version, and Google has discontinued support of it. You have to use a more up-to-date version number.

Use one of the URL formats in the Maemo Mapper Repositories thread (http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5209), or simply use the "Download..." button in the "Manage Repositories" dialog.

Thanks gnuite. but this one, http://mt.google.com/mt?n=404&v=w2.9...d&y=%d&zoom=%d. doesn't work for me too.

Are you typing the URL format in manually? Because the characters "..." (three periods in a row) shouldn't be in the actual URL format. Tap and hold on the URL and select "Copy URL to Clipboard", then use the copied URL. Or just use the "Download..." button in the "Manage Repositories" dialog.

Please make sure that you are using the most recent firmware version (3.2006.49-2) and that you are using the .install file (http://www.gnuite.com/nokia770/maemo-mapper.install) to install Maemo Mapper.
