Turning location services on or off
In order to find your location on HTC Desire 601, you need to enable location sources.
1. Go to Settings, and then tap Location.
2. Select or clear the location sources you want to turn on or off.
Turning off a location service means no applications on HTC Desire 601 will collect
your location data through that location service. However, third party applications
may collect — and HTC Desire 601 may continue to provide — location data through
other services, including through Wi-Fi and signal triangulation.
