Maps
Google Maps allow you to track your current location, view
real-time traffic issues, and view detailed destination directions.
There is also a search tool included to help you locate places of
interest or a specific address. You can view locations on a vector
or aerial map, or you can view locations at the street level.
Important!:
Before using Google Maps you must have an active data (3G) or
connection. The Maps application does not cover every country
or city.

Enabling a Location source
Before you use Google Maps and find your location or search for
places of interest, you must enable a location source. To enable
the location source you must enable the wireless network, or
enable the GPS satellites.
Important!:
The more location determining functions are enabled, the more
accurate the determination will be of your position.

street-level. However, this also requires a clear view of the sky and uses
more battery power.
