LocationSettings
Your phone is equipped with a Location feature for use in
connection with location-based services.
The Location feature allows the network to detect your
position. Turning Location off will hide your location from
everyone except 911.
To enable your phone’s Location feature:
1. Highlight and press > Settings > More... >
Location. (The Location disclaimer will be
displayed.)
2. Read the disclaimer and press.
3. Select On or Off and press.
When the Location feature is on, your phone’s standby
screen will display the icon. When Location is turned
off, the icon will be displayed.
MessagingSettings
Your phone’s advanced messaging capabilities let you
send and receive many different kinds of messages
without placing a voice call. (For more information, see
“Messaging” on page 122.)
Messaging settings allow you to decide how you would
like to be notified of new messages, create a signature
with each sent message, and create your own preset
messages.
Note Turning Location on will allow the network to detect
your position using GPS technology, making some
Sprint applications and services easier to use.
Turning Location off will disable the GPS location
function for all purposes except 911, but will not
hide your general location based on the cell site
serving your call. No application or service may use
your location without your request or permission.
GPS-enhanced 911 is not available in all areas.
