i check my MSD setting and my internet is working perfect and i can browse from BB Browser
i am using 9530-Verizon-4.7.0.75
what could be problem??? How can i start BB Map in my Simulator??
The problem has to do with rendering issue in simulator. I've been through this when developing a map based app. Map would not render and would show green field.
This is the official response I got from RIM when contacted with the issue:
Simulator - Blackberry Maps Green Background Issue
Resolution: Advised customer that BlackBerry Maps functionality has
been inconsistent on device simulators. The best method of conducting
this testing would be to test on a physical device.
After trying all possible solutions, I gave up. Note that the issue doesn't occur on all systems. If you have access to any other system, try on it. May be you get lucky.
On the simulator phone go into the wifi settings and select a network to connect to. After that you should be able to use the web browser and map applications without problem.
