Section 9: GPS Services
This section outlines the various entertainment
applications that are available on your device.
GPS Services
Your device’s built-in GPS capability gives you access
to location-based services, including Maps.
To receive better GPS signals, avoid using your
device:
•
inside a building or between buildings
•
in a tunnel or underground passage
•
in poor weather
•
around high-voltage or electromagnetic fields
•
in a vehicle with tinted windows
Activating Location Mode
Before using any of the location-based services, you
must turn on your device’s location mode.
Turning location on allows the network to detect your
position using GPS technology, making some payLo™
by Virgin Mobile Power applications and services
easier to use.
Turning location off disables the GPS location function
for all purposes except 911, but does not hide you
general location based on the cell site serving your
call.
Note:
No application or service may use your location without
your request or permission.
GPS enhanced 911 is not available in all areas.
