If your device has found satellites, a bar for each satellite is displayed in the satellite

information view. The longer the bar, the stronger the satellite signal is. When your

device has received enough data from the satellite signal to calculate the

coordinates of your location, the bar color changes.
Initially, your device must receive signals from at least four satellites to be able to

calculate the coordinates of your location. When the initial calculation has been

made, it may be possible to continue calculating the coordinates of your location

with three satellites. However, the accuracy is generally better when more satellites

are found.

Position requests

You may receive a request from a network service to receive your position

information. Service providers may offer information about local topics, such as

weather or traffic conditions, based on the location of your device.
When you receive a position request, the service that is making the request is

displayed. Select

Accept

to allow your position information to be sent or

Reject

to

deny the request.

Landmarks

With Landmarks, you can save the position information of specific locations in your

device. You can sort the saved locations into different categories, such as business,

and add other information to them, such as addresses. You can use your saved

landmarks in compatible applications, such as GPS data.
