AGPS during an
emergency call
When you make an emergency call, your phone
can use Assisted Global Positioning System
(AGPS) satellite signals to tell the emergency response
center your approximate location.
The AGPS feature has limitations, so always tell the
emergency response center your best knowledge of
your location. Remain on the phone for as long as the
emergency response center instructs you.
AGPS might not work for emergency calls:
• Your phone's AGPS feature must be turned on
(see page 36).
• Your local emergency response center might
not process AGPS location information. For
details, contact your local authorities.
For best results:
• Go outside and away from underground
locations, covered vehicles, structures with
metal or concrete roofs, tall buildings, and
foliage. Indoor performance might improve if
you move closer to windows, but some
window sun shielding films can block satellite
signals.
• Move away from radios, entertainment
equipment, and other electronic devices that
might interfere with or block AGPS satellite
signals.
If your phone cannot find strong AGPS satellite signals,
the location of the nearest cell tower in contact with
your phone is automatically provided to the emergency
response center.
