"Last devices used" menu every second over Ovi map on N95

Hello all,

 

I installed Ovi Maps on my phone, and have a huge problem with it: Every second the"Last devices used" pops up and goes away again.

 

Since a few years I own (and use) a Nokia N95, and I just used 'Setup Nokia Maps Update 1.0.8.exe' to get Ovi maps on my phone. Apparently I had to use 'Nokia Software Updater' to make sure I got the latest version. Done that too.Next step is to use the Nokia Map Loader to get the maps on there. Done that too.

 

Here is the version info of the installed map:

 

I have Bluetooth enabled. Now, when I use the maps, every second the"Last devices used" pops up and goes away again. Mildly irritating would be a severe understatement here. Switching Bluetooth off and starting the map again gives the question "Bluetooth is currently switched off. Switch on?". Every second. It seems impossible to answer the popup-question or do something with the popup-menu.

 

Is this a known prob by anyone, and can you please tell me a fix or workaround (preferably a fix of course)?

 

Thank you,

Most humble apologies, I forgot the version numbers.

 

Ovi map:

v3.01 09wk26 b02 MW OpenGL LM MN

Map version 0.1.22.103 OpenBitLM 6.21.4

 

And my N95 is on it latest version number, according to Nokia PC Suite:

v14.0.001

19-02-08

RM-159

Nokia N95 (94.01)

This is great, I'm having a discussion with myself. I just found that the Bluetooth menu that comes up every second has an added device: It's called "." (without the quotes) and has a phone symbol next to it. Maybe that is a piece of the puzzle that allows someone to solve it ...

And I got a nippy reply from the Benelux Nokia Care.

 

The trick is I had to go to Tools -> Settings -> General -> Positioning -> Positioning Methods, and switch off 'Bluetooth GPS'. I think I always ahd this switched on and it never complained with the standard Nokia maps, but I'm not sure - I think I saw that menu only once, when I was palying with my GPS and the original maps.

 

But hey, it's fixed. Cool!
