Turning location services on or off

In order to find your location on HTC Desire 320, you need to enable location sources.
1. Go to Settings.
2. Tap Location, and then tap the on/off switch to turn location services on or off.
3. Tap Mode and then select the location mode you want. For example, for a
better estimate of your location, choose High accuracy. To save battery power,
choose Battery saving.
Turning off a location source (for example GPS) means no applications on
HTC Desire 320 will collect your location data through that location source. However,
third party applications may collect — and HTC Desire 320 may continue to provide —
location data through other sources, including through Wi-Fi and signal triangulation.
