Navigator

Your device has an internal GPS
receiver that receives low-power radio
signals from satellites, and measures
the travel time of the signals. From the
travel time, the GPS receiver can
calculate its location to within 10
meters. The coordinates are expressed
in degrees and decimal degrees format
using WGS-84 coordinate system.
The GPS receiver is located in the upper
right corner of the slide cover. When
using the receiver, hold the device upright in your hand
with an orientation toward the sky.
Please note that time for GPS connection may vary
substantially depending on different factors such as
environment and weather.
As availability of GPS related services depends on wireless
environment and systems, the services may not fuction in
all environments at all times. In case of sudden loss of GPS
reception, please restart the Navigator application.
Your device also supports Assisted GPS (A-GPS) service
which helps determining the location faster. It utilises
packet data connection, and your network operator may
charge you for this according to your network
subscription. Contact your service provider for the correct
internet access point and charges related to the service.
Your device is preconfigured to use the Nokia A-GPS
service if no service provider specific A-GPS settings are
available. The assistance data is retrieved from the Nokia
A-GPS service server only when needed.
When you start the GPS function for the first time, you
need to define or select an access point to take A-GPS into
use. After this, A-GPS is used automatically when needed
unless the A-GPS method is disabled. For example, the A-
GPS service will be contacted automatically if the
integrated GPS has been switched off for more than two
hours.
To enable or disable different positioning methods, such as
the A-GPS, select Menu > Settings > Phone sett. >
General > Positioning > Positioning methods, scroll to
the positioning method, and select Options > Enable or
Disable.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the
government of the United States, which is solely
responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The
accuracy of location data can be affected by adjustments
