AGPS & your lo c ation
Your phone uses the Automatic Location Information
(ALI) feature, along with AGPS satellite signals, to tell
the network where you are physically located.
When ALI is set to Location > On (Do Not Ask) or On (Always Ask)
your phone shows the
O
(ALI on) indicator. Services
may use your known location to provide useful
information (for example, driving directions, or the
location of the nearest bank). Your phone prompts you
when the network or a service asks for your location.
You can refuse at this point.
When ALI is set to Location > Off (E911 Only) , your phone
displays the
P
(ALI off) indicator, and the phone does
not send location information unless you call the
emergency phone number (such as 911).

AGPS limitations & tips
Your phone uses Assisted Global Positioning
System (AGPS) satellite signals to estimate your
location. If your phone cannot find strong satellite
signals, your AGPS might be slower, less accurate, or it
might not work at all. AGPS provides only an
approximate location, often within 150 feet (45 meters)
but sometimes much farther from your actual location.
To improve AGPS accuracy:
• 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.
