Network Positioning; Compass - Nokia N86 User Manual

information may involve transmission of large
amounts of data (network service).
Almost all digital cartography is inaccurate and
incomplete to some extent. Never rely solely on the
cartography that you download for use in this device.

Network positioning

Select Menu > Maps.
You can use the mobile network to find your current
location, even indoors. This is faster but less accurate
than with GPS, and you cannot use the location as a
starting point for navigation.
To use the mobile network for positioning, select the
network-based positioning method from the device
settings. When you start the Maps application and your
GPS connection is ready, GPS replaces mobile network
as the positioning method.
