GPS/Navigation
Enabling location information
If you use an app that uses location information, you need to enable GPS
function in advance.
1
From the Home screen
"Location"
2
→ "AGREE"
3
"Locating method" → Select a detection method
Item
High accuracy
Uses GPS, Wi-Fi and mobile networks to identify
current location. Although current location can be
detected more accurately, the terminal consumes
much power of battery.
Battery saving
Uses Wi-Fi and mobile networks to identify current
location.
Phone only
Uses GPS to identify current location.

Using the GPS function
• DOCOMO is not liable for any damage caused by abnormality of the
system.
• Note that DOCOMO shall have no liabilities for any purely economic loss
including those due to missing a chance to check the measurement
(communication) results because of external factors (including the
running out of the battery), such as a failure, malfunction, or any other
problems of the terminal or the power failure.
• You cannot use the terminal as a navigation system for aircraft, vehicles,
persons, etc. For this reason, note that DOCOMO is not liable for losses
incurred by navigation performed by using location information.
• You cannot use the terminal as a high-accuracy measurement GPS.
Note that DOCOMO shall have no liabilities whatsoever even if you suffer
damage or loss due to a deviation of the location information.
• GPS is a service operated by the USA Department of Defense, so the
GPS radio wave condition may be controlled (accuracy degraded, radio
wave suspended, etc.) for reasons of US national security. And, wave
conditions differ by satellite locations; therefore, positioning operations
in the same location under the same environmental conditions may not
yield the same result.
• Wireless communications products (mobile phone or data detector, etc.)
may intercept satellite signal and signal reception may not be stable.
• The displayed map based on the acquired location information (latitude
and longitude information) may be inaccurate because of the legal
system in each country and area.
■
Where radio waves are difficult to receive
Note that radio waves may not be received or it may be difficult to
receive radio waves in the following conditions, since GPS uses radio
waves from a satellite.
• Inside or immediately under a building
• Inside a basement or tunnel, and below the ground or water
• Inside a bag or box
• In buildings-clustered or residential area
• Inside or under a thick covering of trees
• Near a high-voltage cable
• In a car, inside a train compartment
• Bad weather such as heavy rain or snow
• When there are obstructions (people or objects) near the terminal
