3 To turn Google Services on/off, open the application menu, tap
Locate Me Using and tap Use Google Services.
Google Services uses cellular radio towers and Wi-Fi access points
to approximate your location. This technology is very fast at
acquiring a location fix, but it is not as accurate as GPS. Certain
applications, such as turn-by-turn navigation solutions, require GPS
to be activated in order to work properly.
The first time you turn on Google Services you may be asked to
review and accept the terms of use and decide whether to allow
anonymous data collection. Do the following:
• Review the terms of use.
• If you decide not to allow anonymous data collection, tap the
checkmark to remove it.
• Tap Agree or Don't Agree.
