monitor a user’s location. Users who prefer not to
permit such tracking and monitoring should avoid using
such applications.
Your phone uses the Automatic Location Information
(ALI) feature, along with AGPS satellite signals, to tell
the network where you are physically located.
Note: ALI may not work in all locations and may not be
available due to network, environmental, or
interference issues.
When ALI is set to Location > On (the mode your new
phone arrives in), services may use your known
location to provide useful information (for example,
driving directions, or the location of the nearest bank).
Your phone prompts you when the network or a service
asks for your location. You can refuse at this point.
When ALI is set to Location > Off, the phone does not
send location information unless you call the
emergency phone number (such as 911).
Open the main menu and touch 7 Settings > General and
slide Location Based Services to On or Off.
AGPS limitations & tips
Your phone uses Assisted Global Positioning
System (AGPS) satellite signals to estimate your
location. If your phone cannot find strong satellite
signals, your AGPS might be slower, less accurate, or it
might not work at all. AGPS provides only an
approximate location, often within 150 feet (45 meters)
but sometimes much farther from your actual location.
To improve AGPS accuracy:
• Go outside and away from underground
locations, covered vehicles, structures with
metal or concrete roofs, tall buildings, and
foliage. Indoor performance might improve if
you move closer to windows, but some
window sun shielding films can block
satellite signals.
