26 Using Your BlackBerry 8703e
Location Settings
Your BlackBerry 8703e is equipped with a Location feature for use in connection
with location-based services that may be available.
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. Click Options, and then click Location Based Services.
2. Click the trackwheel and click Change Option
.
3. Click Location ON, click the trackwheel, and then click Save.
When the Location feature is on, the Home screen will display the icon.
When Location is turned off, the icon will be displayed.
Note:
Turning Location on will allow the network to detect your position using GPS
technology, making some Sprint PCS 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.
