Searching
After the network successfully validates your privileges, the device will automatically request GPS satellite almanac information from the network, so that it knows where to find the satellites. Once it retrieves the almanac information the device will then talk directly to the satellites to obtain your location coordinates. While the GPS Receiver searches for GPS satellites the message “Searching” is displayed.
If no satellites are acquired within 30 seconds, an error message is displayed: “No GPS satellites are currently available. Please move outdoors to a new location and try again.”
Note:
The Sprint Location Services Welcome screen will display each time you make a connection unless this dialog box has been disabled. Uncheck the ‘Always show Welcome Screen’ box if you do not want this message to appear.
