Using Wireless Networks
You can use information from Wi-Fi and your service provider's networks to
determine your approximate location, for use in GPS applications, when you search,
and so on. To use information about your location when navigating and searching
in GPS applications (see GPS Navigation on page 165) you must turn on location
services.
Note
Turning Location on will allow the network to detect your position using GPS technology
making some 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.
