hi, i recently bought a nokia c5-03.. there was a software update to version 22.0.007, which i completed. i wanted to check the working of GPS so i clicked on the maps icon n it took me to my position. suddenly an error msg popped up stating "Memory full. Close some applications and try again" n the maps app got closed. but my phone memory has abt 33 mb of free space n memory card has 1.2 gb. this has been a problem with few other applications as well. pls help me out with this..

As you report this has happened with other applications perhaps it is time to backup essential data and reset your C5-03 to "Out of box" state by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by user). There is no doubt that later versions of Ovi Maps need more free phone memory to run especially if calculating a journey of any length.

@aspergerguy i dont quite understand what "out of box" means.. i need to back up the phone contents using the nokia suite right? and by reset do u mean factory reset? pls could u explain this to me..

hi, you should understand all closed applications are running in background so memory full error occured, so you can install mobile guard application from ovi store, that application closes all the background processes using the clean spam option, if more help personal message me.

hi, as advised i backed up my phone and reset my phone to "out of box" state.. so far other apps have been working smoothly but still the maps keep getting closed.. is this a common problem or am i only having this? pls help me out..

Delete the 'Cities' folder and the 'qf' file thru' Windows Explorer after connecting the phone to PC... Then open the Maps application and close after a few seconds so that the Folder structure is recreated. Then install the Maps again..and check

Are you starting up maps with a wi-fi connection to the internet (A-GPS)? This setting always crashes maps when I start navigation. If this is possibly your problem, make sure that you have the maps internet connection set to use your cellular data network rather than wi-fi.  You could also disconnect from the internet entirely (use only GPS) just to see whether you still have the problem.

deleted the cities folder n the qf file as suggested.. reinstalled the maps.. still same error.. i dont have a wifi connection at home n i haven used wifi as yet in this phone.. i use my 3g or the 2g network only.. i tried switching off and switching on the device after maps got installed.. i have no solution yet..
