To receive better GPS signals, avoid using your
device:
• inside a building or between buildings
• in a tunnel or underground passage
• in poor weather
• around high-voltage or electromagnetic fields
• in a vehicle with tinted windows
Activating Location Mode

must turn on your device’s location mode.
Turning location on allows the network to detect your
position using GPS technology, making some Virgin
Mobile Power applications and services easier to use.
Turning location off disables the GPS location function
for all purposes except 911, but does not hide you
general location based on the cell site serving your
call.
