      1. Download Nokia GPS LMX files or convert POI files with our online POI Editor

2. Save LMX file to your memory card (e.g. Documents). Use USB "Data Transfer"

3. On your phone go to Settings >> Data mgr >> File mgr >> Documents

4. Copy all required POI files. Too many POIs may slow down or freeze your GPS Landmarks application.

5. Assign appropriate category to your POIs.
Goto Applications >> Landmarks >> Categories >> Uncategorised >> Options > Mark/Unmark >> Mark All

6. Return to Options and select Add To Category

Cheers

Hey Gents,

I seem to be getting stuck on point 3 here. Ive got a Nokia 6110 Navigator and i cant see a 'documents' folder anywhere in file manager.

Where am i meant to be copying the POI files? Ive currently just put them in root and experimented in a few other folders, but nothing is showing up when I go to add the POI's.


Is anyone having the same problem?

Thanks!

On your Nokia GPS phone find where you saved them using Nokia file manager and click it.

It will then open up in landmarks, I have just saved them to documents on storage card then found them using the phone, (does need to be unplugged from PC)

Took a while to open the Nokia speed camera database. I split them into speed zones so i have a different voice alert for each. One huge POI database will take ages!

Here you go (better in link than 800 lines of text):
http://www.uusikaupunki.fi/~passaari/poi.csv

And if you get this working, you can e-mail me LMX file ?

Thanks !!

p.s. these are speed camera traps in Finland

Hi
Ming made some quick fix for extended character support. I converted your file with POI Manager for Garmin: http://garmin.gps-data-team.com/poi_manager.php
It looks OK now. POI manager will be slightly improved soon. I believe that you will have no problems with our current version. Please let me know if you have any other issue.

Regards

Just don't 'get' how to do this stuff.

Still trying to work out how to put the lmx files into the Navigator, and sorry, but given I'm not a techie (though I respect them GREATLY) I don't understand some of these instructions because they pre-suppose a lot of knowledge that some of us don't have.

For example, in 2) below, it says "2. On your Nokia goto Settings >> Alarm and select category with your POIs" Well I went to Settings >> and cannot find Alarm although I am sure it's behind some other icon group. Which one please, and can you take us from Settings>>all_the_way_through please.


3. Change alarm settings - Visual alarm, Warning sound and distance Again, haven't found this so not sure where to go next. Can you help please?

4. Press Save and exit[/quote] - Ditto



Cheers
