GPS Enabled 158 GPS Enabled Your Smartphone’s GPS Enabled feature uses information from Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites orbiting the Earth to determine the approximate geographical location of your Smartphone, expressed as latitude and longitude. The availability and accuracy of this location information (and the amount of time that it takes to calculate it) will vary depending on the environment in which you are using the GPS feature.
GPS Enabled 159 Even where location information can be calculated in such situations, it may take much longer to do so, and your location estimate may not be as accurate. Therefore, in any 911 call, always report the location to the emergency response center if you can and if you cannot, remain on your Smartphone for as long as the emergency response center instructs you.
GPS Enabled 160 See “Enhancing GPS Performance” on page 161 for information on how to help your Smartphone determine your location. Viewing Your Approximate Location You can calculate your approximate location, which is automatically saved in your phone for you to view again later. The next time you calculate your approximate location, the new location replaces the old one. Calculate your approximate location 1 From the Home screen, select Start. 2 Select Accessories and then GPS Location.
GPS Enabled 161 Enhancing GPS Performance Sometimes the GPS feature of your Smartphone may be unable to complete a location calculation successfully. If this happens when you are making an emergency call, the location of the nearest cell tower in contact with your Smartphone is made available to the appropriate emergency response center if the center has the capability to receive such information.
GPS Enabled 162 • Stay in network coverage. Depending on who your service provider is, the network will provide your Smartphone with information that helps determine your location more quickly and accurately. Updating Satellite Almanac Data Another way to keep the GPS feature of your Smartphone working well is to keep your satellite almanac data up to date. The United States government maintains an almanac of data about where GPS satellites are as they orbit the Earth.
GPS Enabled 163 Setting the GPS PIN Security Feature To prevent your GPS privacy settings from being altered without your knowledge, your GPS privacy option can be protected by a PIN. When you receive your Smartphone, the GPS security feature is turned off, so you do not have to enter a GPS PIN to access your GPS privacy options. If you turn this feature on, you will be required to enter a GPS PIN to access your GPS privacy options. Enable GPS Lock 1 2 3 4 On the Home screen, select Start.
