Your phone is set up to use the Nokia A-GPS service, unless your

network service provider has its own A-GPS settings. To get the

assistance data to your phone, you need to be able to connect to

the internet. Your phone gets the data from the service only when

needed.

Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi positioning improves positioning accuracy when GPS signals

are not available, especially when you are indoors or between tall

buildings.

Cell ID

With network (cell ID) based positioning, Maps locates you

through the cellular system your phone is currently connected to.

The availability and quality of GPS signals may be affected by your location, satellite

positions, buildings, natural obstacles, weather conditions, and adjustments to GPS

satellites made by the United States government. GPS signals may not be available

inside buildings or underground.

Do not use GPS for precise location measurement, and never rely solely on the

location information provided by GPS and cellular networks.

The trip meter may not be accurate, depending on the availability and quality of your

GPS connection.

Depending on the available positioning methods, the accuracy of positioning may

vary from a few yards to several miles.

Switch positioning methods off
To save on data costs, especially when abroad, you can switch off assisted GPS (A-

GPS), Wi-Fi, or network (cell ID) positioning.
