IMPORTANT: Things to Keep in Mind
GPS Enabled
Your handset’s GPS Enabled feature uses
information from Global Positioning System (GPS)
satellites orbiting the Earth to determine the
approximate geographical location of your handset,
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. For example, GPS location fixes are
often difficult to obtain indoors, in covered locations,
between high buildings, or in other situations where
you have not established a clear broad view of the
sky. SEE: “IMPORTANT: Things to Keep in Mind”
on page 83.
You can also use the GPS feature to view your
approximate location. Location information appears
on the handset’s display.
Java applications loaded on your handset can also
request your location. If your handset is connected to
a laptop computer or similar device, software running
on that device can request your location. To protect
your privacy, you can control whether these requests
are granted.
IMPORTANT: Things to Keep in
Mind
If you are using the GPS feature of your handset
while driving, please give full attention to driving and
to the road.
Where adequate signals from multiple satellites
are not available (usually because your GPS
antenna cannot establish a view of a wide area of
open sky), the GPS feature of your handset WILL
NOT WORK. Such situations include but are not
limited to:
• In underground locations
• Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered
vehicles
• Under any other metal or concrete roof or
structure
• Between tall buildings or under dense
tree-cover
• Near a powerful radio or television tower
• When your GPS antenna is covered (for
example, by your hand or other object) or
facing the ground
• In temperature extremes outside the operating
limits of your handset
