GPS & AGPS
Your mobile device can use Global Positioning System (GPS) signals for location-
based applications. GPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S. government that are
subject to changes implemented in accordance with the Department of Defense
policy and the Federal Radio Navigation Plan. These changes may affect
the performance of location technology on your mobile device.
Your mobile device can also use Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS), which
obtains information from the cellular network to improve GPS performance. AGPS
uses your wireless service provider's network and therefore airtime, data charges
and/or additional charges may apply in accordance with your service plan. Contact
your wireless service provider for details.
Your location
Location-based information includes information that can be used to determine
the approximate location of a mobile device. Mobile phones which are connected
to a wireless network transmit location-based information. Devices enabled with
GPS or AGPS technology also transmit location-based information. Additionally,
if you use applications that require location-based information (e.g. driving
directions), such applications transmit location-based information. This location-
based information may be shared with third parties, including your wireless
service provider, applications providers, Motorola and other third parties providing
services.
Emergency calls
When you make an emergency call, the cellular network may activate the AGPS
technology in your mobile device to tell the emergency responders your approximate
location.
AGPS has limitations and might not work in your area. Therefore:
Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of your ability;
and
Remain on the phone for as long as the emergency responder instructs you.
Performance tips
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.
Move away from radios, entertainment equipment and other electronic devices.
