I just installed OS2007, maemo mapper keep crashing randomly for every operation. and for sure it crashes when i try to search bluetooth gps (working fine with OS2006),
I installed with the links in the first post of first page, am I doing wrong with installation, i mean did I installed wrong version?

Virtual Earth has no such restriction - too bad the images aren't as good.
There have been reports of the satellite repositories being a little finicky, sometime blocking requests for some time or returning error pages. I don't think it's ever been permanent, though. Does maps.google.com work?

I am little confused finding gregale version, what I found is ... first I went to following page
https://garage.maemo.org/projects/maemo-mapper
and clicked 'download' button for "maemo-mapper-IT2007" that link goes to another download page
https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_...release_id=711
even that page title shows as "maemo-mapper-IT2006", I guess it is belongs to IT2007. from that page I have to install 1.4.7-2
Am I correct?
If I am wrong please give me a link from where I can install Maemo Mapper for my 770 installed with OS2007.
Thanks in advance.
Edit:
gnuit, do you mean this? (#25 post in below link)

The "-2" version is the 770 build, and the "-3" version is the N800 build ("-2" and "-3" are otherwise identical), so yes, install 1.4.7-2.

So what will be installed if I click the 'maemo-mapper' link in the first post of this thread? (I installed mapper software by clicking that link ...!)

Thanks gnuit,
Looks like it is working fine after followed your instructions. I haven't tested much, but so far looking good (it was horrible before).
I guess, when I clicked link in the first post, it was installed with N800 version ! Many other softwares confuse like this and thinks this device is N800 where N770 is installed with OS2007.
I know it will be ready when it has to , but is there any estimated week/month when the new version of mapper will be released with DB support? Right now my 2GB card is full of maps(around a GB, the actual size is around 400MB or less) and OS2007(0.5GB). I can not accommodate any space for my music etc.

I have tried and it is really a great software!
But the google maps obtained for China is too rough - I can only see the name of the cities but nothing else... There IS China maps with detail streets from google China (http://ditu.google.cn), but I don't know how to obtain the correct URL name for the goole map which can give 256x256 gif format of maps that Mamo Mapper requires.
So one thing I can think about is to convert the existing map files of other formats (such as Pathaway, Ozi, etc.) to Mamo Mapper like.
Any detail tips about how to make it? I would like to try manual first and if appicable I am thinkg about some tools for automatic.
Thanks!

(With your Nokia device, tap-and-hold on the above link and select "Copy Address", then paste it into Maemo Mapper as the "URL Format".)
I installed with the links in the first post of first page, am I doing wrong with installation, i mean did I installed wrong version?
Thanks in advance.
