I'm not, but a quick search for Nokia N95 on the OSM wiki 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org suggests various software 
can be used. For example, there is a bit here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/GPS_Reviews#Nokia_N_Series.2C_E_S
eries.2C_6290.2C_6110_Navigator_.26_6220_Classic
(short http://is.gd/2lwbh )
That mentions Sportstracker as a free download from Nokia (other
software is also available, judging by the wiki search results).

IF the phone supports Java apps then it may be worth looking through
this page:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Software/Mobilephones
(which might be a bit overwhelming as there is a lot of choice)

You'll find that often people suggest using external (Bluetooth) GPS
receivers for improved accuracy over the phone internal receiver. 

Hope some of this helps
