Phone Calls
32
When you place an emergency 911 call, the GPS feature of your phone seeks information to
calculate your approximate location. Depending on several variables, including availability and
access to satellite signals, it may take up to 30 seconds or more to determine and report your
approximate location.
Important:
Always report your location to the 911 operator when placing an emergency call.
Some designated emergency call takers, known as Public Safety Answering
Points (PSAPs), may not be equipped to receive GPS location information from
your phone.
Receive Phone Calls
When you receive a phone call from a contact, the Incoming call screen appears and displays
the caller ID icon, name, and phone number of the calling party. When you receive a phone call
from someone who is not stored in Contacts, only the default caller ID icon and phone number
appear on the Incoming call screen.
Note:
If your phone is turned off, all calls automatically go to voicemail.
