Enhancing GPS Performance
To improve accuracy and increase your chances of
a successful calculation, do the following while your
phone is determining your approximate location:
• Stay in the open. The GPS feature works best
where there is nothing between your phone and a
large amount of open sky. If possible, go outside,
away from tall buildings and foliage. While
performance in a building is improved by moving
closer to windows, glass with certain sun
shielding films may block satellite signals.
• Extend your phone antenna.
• Hold your phone to enhance reception. Signals
from GPS satellites are transmitted to your GPS
antenna, which is in your phone antenna. Hold
your phone away from your body, giving the
antenna clear access to satellite signals. Do not
cover the antenna area with your fingers or
anything else.
