Location Settings
Your phone is equipped with a Location feature for use
in connection with location-based services.
The Location feature allows the network to detect your
position. Turning Location off will hide your location
from everyone except 911.
To enable your phone’s Location feature:
1. While in standby mode, select Main Menu > Settings
> More... > Location . (The Location disclaimer will be
displayed.)
2. Read the disclaimer and press OK (left softkey).
3. Select On or Off and press .
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 on the main
display screen.
Messaging Settings
Staying connected to your friends and family has never
been easier. With your phone’s advanced messaging
capabilities, you can send and receive many different
kinds of text messages without placing a voice call.
(For more information, see “Accessing Messaging” on
page 142.)
Messaging settings make text messaging easier by
letting you decide how you would like to be notified of
new messages, create a signature with each sent
message, and create your own preset messages.
Note Turning Location on will allow the network to detect
your position using GPS technology, making some
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.
