Agps Limitations And Tips - Motorola MOTOROKR User Manual

When ALI is set to Location On, your phone shows the
ë
(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 911 Only, your phone displays the
â
(ALI off) indicator, and the phone does not send
location information unless you call the emergency
phone number (such as 911).

AGPS limitations and
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.
