Assisted GPS

Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is used to retrieve assistance data over a packet data connection,
which assists in calculating the coordinates of your current location when your device is
receiving signals from satellites.

Your network operator may charge you for this connection according to your
network subscription. Contact your service provider for the correct internet access
point and charges related to the service.

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.

To use A-GPS, you must have a packet data internet access point defined. Your
device asks for the internet access point when A-GPS is used for the first time. To
define the access point, see “Positioning settings,” p. 36.
