data > Position > Options > Satellite status. Or,
in the Maps application, select Options > Map
options > Satellite info.
If your device has found
satellites, a bar for each
satellite is shown in the
satellite info view. The longer
the bar, the stronger the
satellite signal. When your
device has received enough
data from the satellite signal
to calculate the coordinates of
your location, the bar turns
black.
Initially your device must
receive signals from at least
four satellites to be able to
calculate the coordinates of
your location. When the initial
calculation has been made, it
may be possible to continue
calculating the coordinates of
your location with three
satellites. However, the
accuracy is generally better when more satellites are
found.
Position requests
You may receive a request from a network service to
receive your position information. Service providers
may offer information about local topics, such as
weather or traffic conditions, based on the location of
your device.
When you receive a position request, a message is
displayed showing the service that is making the
request. Select Accept to allow your position
information to be sent or Reject to deny the request.
