How do I enable GPS?

By default Location services are enabled. You can also select
or deselect “Enable Location Services” from the Location
Settings screen.

Does GPS work when Privacy is set to “ON”?

No, turning Privacy on means you do not want the device to
be discoverable; thus GPS is not started on the device.

How do I configure my NMEA port?

At this time you can not configure which port to use. The
operating system auto-configured the next available port
when your device was installed.

How do I Start and Stop NMEA?

This can be done by selecting the “Go” or “Stop” button on
the GPS receiver interface in Sprint Mobile Broadband.

How do I use GPS applications with a Sprint GPS-capable
device?

Once you have started GPS NMEA, identify the local port
configured for GPS on your computer by using the operating
system device manager utility. (See operating system help for
assistance with device manager utility). Configure your GPS
application to listen on the GPS/NMEA com port.

Can I use LBS and GPS when my device is configured for
NDIS?
