If your device has found satellites, a bar for each
satellite is shown in the satellite info view. The longer
the bar, the stronger the satellite signal. When your
device has received enough data from the satellite
signal to calculate your location, the bar colour
changes.
To view the positions of found satellites, select Chg. view.
Initially your device must receive signals from at least four satellites to be able to
calculate your location. When the initial calculation has been made, it may be
possible to continue calculating your location with three satellites. However, the
accuracy is generally better when more satellites are found.
If no satellite signal can be found, consider the following:
● If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better signal.
● If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
● Ensure that your hand does not cover the GPS antenna of your device.
● If the weather conditions are bad, the signal strength may be affected.
● Some vehicles have tinted (athermic) windows, which may block the satellite
signals.

Position requests

You may receive a request from a network service to receive your position

When you receive a position request, the service that is making the request is
displayed. Select Accept to allow your position information to be sent or Reject to
deny the request.
