Searching

After the network successfully validates your privileges, the
device will automatically request GPS satellite almanac
information from the network, so that it knows where to find
the satellites. Once it retrieves the almanac information the
device will then talk directly to the satellites to obtain your
location coordinates. While the GPS Receiver searches for GPS
satellites the message “Searching” is displayed.

If no satellites are acquired within 30 seconds, an error
message is displayed: “No GPS satellites are currently
available. Please move outdoors to a new location and try
again.”

Note:

The Sprint Location Services Welcome

screen will display each

time you make a connection unless this dialog box has been
disabled. Uncheck the ‘Always show Welcome Screen’ box if
you do not want this message to appear.
