Check The Satellite Signal Status - Nokia 002L5G7 User Manual

Positioning
The coordinates in the GPS are expressed in the degrees and decimal degrees format
using the international WGS-84 coordinate system. The availability of the
coordinates may vary by region.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of the United
States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The accuracy
of location data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United
States government and is subject to change with the United States Department of
Defense civil GPS policy and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be
affected by poor satellite geometry. Availability and quality of GPS signals may be
affected by your location, buildings, natural obstacles, and weather conditions. GPS
signals may not be available inside buildings or underground and may be impaired
by materials such as concrete and metal.
GPS should not be used for precise location measurement, and you should never
rely solely on location data from the GPS receiver and cellular radio networks for
positioning or navigation.
The trip meter has limited accuracy, and rounding errors may occur. Accuracy can
also be affected by availability and quality of GPS signals.
Different positioning methods can be enabled or disabled in positioning settings.

Check the satellite signal status

Your device does not have an internal GPS antenna. To use applications that require
a GPS connection, use a compatible GPS receiver (accessory sold separately).
To check how many satellites the GPS receiver has found, and whether it is receiving
satellite signals, select Menu Applications Location and GPS data
> > >
Position Options Satellite status.
> >
If the GPS receiver has found satellites, a bar for each
satellite is displayed in the satellite information view.
The longer the bar, the stronger the satellite signal.
When the GPS receiver has received enough data from
the satellite signal to calculate your location, the bar
turns blue.
