OK, so apparently I had to not only reflash my firmware but the eMMC as well. Apparently a configuration got screwed resulting in me not being able to run "maps" (perhaps this maybe due to the language local, like amandalam mentioned, although i never had a problem before nor did i ever change locales or files for ovi maps, strange)
You didn't have to reflash the whole eMMC, Ovi Maps store its data in ~/MyDocs/cities, and just like with the s60 series, deleting that folder should fix any maps problem you might have - Ovi Maps will rebuild it if it cannot find it.
More info please...where is the repo or where do I find the Chiense language pack. I did install the MSCIMgooglepinyin from extras-devel and able to input Chinese.
TIA,
bun
For locale and translations:
The Package Name is "N900-i18n-zh_CN"
the Description is "POSIX locales and translations for zh-CN"
the Version is "20100115-r294"
the Size is "2.25MB"
the Repo is "Maemo Extras-devel", I guest. Because i don't know how to determine which repo it belongs to...
For Input Chinese:
The Package Name is "MSCIM" & "MSCIMgooglepinyin"
By the way, I deleted the "/home/user/MyDocs/cities", and the Maps still Unable to open...
In additional, Because the Maps runs when i set the locale to ‘en_US’ in 'Settings', I tried to forge a ‘en_US’ environment by changing the environment variablies in my Chinese locale.
I run “LANG=en_US /usr/bin/nokia-maps”.....loading forever..
I run "LC_ALL=en_US /usr/bin/nokia-maps".....loading forever..
I run "export LANG=en_US" then "/usr/bin/nokia-maps"......loading forever..
I run "export LC_ALL=en_US" then "/usr/bin/nokia-maps"......loading forever..
I thought it only relate to the environment variablies, but now, It seems not so easy...
