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.
To enable your phone’s Location feature:
1.
Select Menu > Settings > Others > Location. (The Location
disclaimer is displayed.)
2.
Read the disclaimer and press
.
3.
Select On or Off 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.
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.
