Sprint Nextel SCP-8400 - Manual (Page 78)

62 Section 2B: Controlling Your Phone’s Settings
Location Settings
Your phone is equipped with a Location feature for use in
connection with location-based services that may be
available in the future.
The Location feature allows the network to detect your
position. Turning Location off will hide your location from
everyone except 911.
Note: Turning Location on will allow the network to detect your position
using GPS technology, making some Sprint PCS applications and services
easier to use. Turning Location off will disable the GPS location function for all
purposes except 911, but will not hide your general location based on the cell
site serving your call. No application or service may use your location without
your request or permission. GPS-enhanced 911 is not available in all areas.
To enable your phone’s Location feature:
1. Select > Settings > Location. (The Location disclaimer
is displayed.)
2. Read the disclaimer and press OK (left softkey).
3. Select On or Off.
When the Location feature is on, your phone’s standby screen
will display the
icon. When Location is turned off, the
icon will be displayed.
