Location settings
Some apps use your location to provide information that you need. Choose a location mode to use
based on how accurate you want these apps to determine your location.
1. From the Home screen, swipe up and then tap Settings Location
2. If the On/Off switch is off, tap it to turn on location mode.
3. Tap Mode, and then select one of the following location modes:
§ High accuracy provides a better estimate of your location. It relies on GPS, Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth, or mobile networks to determine your location. This mode uses Google
location services.
§ Battery saving relies on Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or mobile networks without using GPS to
consume lesser battery power. This mode uses Google location services.
§ Device only uses GPS.
Turning off a location source (for example GPS) means no applications on HTC Desire 12 will
collect your location data through that location source. However, third party applications may
collect — and HTC Desire 12 may continue to provide — location data through other sources,
including through Wi-Fi and signal triangulation.
Airplane mode
When you enable Airplane (Flight) mode, all wireless radios on HTC Desire 12 are turned off,
including the call function, data services, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi.
When you disable Airplane mode, the call function is turned back on and the previous state of
Bluetooth and Wi-Fi is restored.
§ You can manually turn Bluetooth and Wi-Fi back on after enabling Airplane mode.
§ If USB tethering is turned on, enabling Airplane mode turns it off. You need to manually turn
USB tethering on after you disable Airplane mode.
Do any of the following to turn Airplane mode on or off:
§ In Settings More, tap the Airplane mode On/Off switch to turn Airplane mode on or off.
§ With two fingers, swipe down from the status bar to open the Quick Settings panel. Tap the
Airplane mode tile to turn airplane mode on or off.
When enabled, the Airplane mode icon
is displayed in the status bar.
