GPS Indicator Area Icons
Icon Meaning
The Location Services privacy icon is enabled only when
location services are available. This icon will also show
you whether location-based privacy settings are on or off.
When the Location Services privacy icon is crossed out no
connection is possible for one of the following reasons:
ⅷ Sprint Mobile Broadband software fails to detect a
device.
ⅷ Location Services is disabled; privacy is on.
ⅷ You are outside of the network service area.
ⅷ A network problem is preventing the device from
obtaining service.
The GPS Satellite Transmit/Receive icon is grayed out to
indicate that service is available, but not active. The GPS
receiver is off.
The GPS Satellite Transmit/Receive icon turns red to
indicate that your GPS receiver is active but is waiting to
validate your user privileges and is not usable.
When the GPS Satellite icon turns yellow it indicates that
GPS is ON and usable but with lower accuracy.
The GPS Transmit/Receive icon turns green to indicate
that your GPS receiver is active and location
coordinates have been aquired. It also shows you the
number of satellites that have been found.
