10. Positioning (GPS)
You can use applications such as GPS data to calculate your
location or measure distances. These applications require a
GPS connection.
About GPS
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the
government of the United States, which is solely responsible
for its accuracy and maintenance. The accuracy of location
data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made
by the United States government and is subject to change
with the United States Department of Defense civil GPS policy
and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be
affected by poor satellite geometry. Availability and quality
of GPS signals may be affected by your location, buildings,
natural obstacles, and weather conditions. The GPS receiver
should only be used outdoors to allow reception of GPS
signals.
Any GPS should not be used for precise location
measurement, and you should never rely solely on location
data from the GPS receiver and cellular radio networks for
positioning or navigation.
The trip meter has limited accuracy, and rounding errors may
occur. Accuracy can also be affected by availability and quality
of GPS signals.

Different positioning methods can be enabled or disabled in
positioning settings.
Assisted GPS (A-GPS)
Your device also supports Assisted GPS (A-GPS).
A-GPS is a network service.
Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is used to retrieve assistance data over
a packet data connection, which assists in calculating your
current location when your device is receiving signals from
satellites.
When you activate A-GPS, your device receives useful satellite
information from an assistance data server over the cellular
network. With the help of assisted data, your device can
obtain the GPS position faster.
Your device is preconfigured to use the Nokia A-GPS service,
if no service provider-specific A-GPS settings are available.
The assistance data is retrieved from the Nokia A-GPS service
server only when needed.
You must have an internet access point defined in the device
to retrieve assistance data from the Nokia A-GPS service over
a packet data connection. To define an access point for A-GPS,
select Menu > Apps. > Location and Positioning >
Positioning server > Access point. Only a packet data
