applications, such as Google Maps.

Use wireless networks
Mark the check box to use information from Wi-Fi and mobile networks
to determine your approximate location, for use in Google Maps, when
you search, and so on. When you select this option, you're asked whether
you consent to sharing your location anonymously with Google's location
service.
Use GPS satellites
Check to use your phone's global positioning system (GPS) satellite
receiver to pinpoint your location within an accuracy as close as several
meters ("street level"). The process of accessing the GPS satellite and
setting your phone's precise location for the first time will require up to
5 minutes. You will need to stand in a place with a clear view of the sky
and avoid moving. After this, GPS will only need 20-40 seconds to identify
your precise location.
GPS EPO assistance
Check to enable EPO (Extended Prediction Orbit) assistance. EPO is
one of the off-line server based A-GPS technologies. It supports up to 30
days satellite orbit prediction, which can be used to greatly improve user
experience by speeding up GPS Time To First Fix (TTFF).
