How do I enable/disable GPS?

By default, Sprint Location Services are disabled.

To enable Sprint Location Services:

1.In the Sprint Location Services settings window, select Enable Location Services.

2.If you will be using the GPS Receiver window (page 35), select Display GPS Receiver.

Tip:

To prevent Privacy Consent Agreements from appearing every time you use NMEA or the Location & Search Services menu, select Do not show NMEA Privacy Consent and Do not show Privacy Consent for 'Location & Search Services'.

Will GPS work when Privacy is set to ON?

No. Setting Privacy to ON [by not accepting the Consent Privacy Agreement(s)] means you do not want your USB modem to be discoverable; thus, GPS is not enabled/started on the USB modem.

Tip:

An icon in the GPS Receiver window indicates the GPS/Privacy status (page 36).

Can I use Sprint Location Services if I have enabled NDIS?

Yes. Sprint Location Services/GPS services are supported, whether or not you have selected Enable Network Adapter (NDIS).

Do I need a GPS subscription to use GPS?

For GPS Basic, you do not need a GPS subscription.

For GPS Premium, you need a GPS subscription.

For more information on GPS Basic and GPS Premium, see “What is GPS Basic?” and “What is GPS Premium?” on page 89.
