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.
Press
r
> Settings
>
Location
. (The Location disclaimer is
displayed.)
2.
Read the disclaimer and press
r
.
3.
Select On or Off press
r
.
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 Sprint PCS
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.
