Set up GPS connection

Positioning settings

Select > Settings > Phone sett.
Positioning and from the following:
Positioning methods — to enable or disable different
positioning methods
Positioning server — To define an access point for A-GPS,
select Access point. Only a packet data internet access
point can be used. Your device asks for the internet access
point when GPS is used for the first time.
Notation preferences — to define the measurement
system and coordinate format

Hold your device correctly

When using the receiver, from an upright position, move
the device to an angle of about 45 degrees, with an
unobstructed view of the sky.
Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple of
seconds to several minutes, even longer in a vehicle. See
"GPS light", p. 18.
Using the GPS receiver may drain the device battery faster.
If your device cannot find the satellite signal, consider the
following:
> General >
• If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better
signal.
• If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
• Check that your hand does not cover the GPS receiver
of your device.
• If the weather conditions are bad, the signal strength
may be affected.
• Some vehicles have tinted (athermic) windows, which
may block the satellite signals.

Satellite signal status

To check how many satellites your device has found, and
whether your device is receiving satellite signals, select
> Applications > GPS data
Satellite status.
If your device has found satellites, a bar for each satellite
is shown in the satellite information view. When your
device has received enough data from the satellite signal
to calculate the coordinates of your location, the bars turn
grey.

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 upon the location of your device.
