I know a million people have answered already, but yes it can. Check in the notifications menu.

Yes it can. That is a standard ability in android and it can be turned on and off anytime you want.

Yes, when you pull the notification bar down, it displays four buttons and one of them is to turn on and off the GPS function, takes literally no time at all. You can even turn all forms of GPS off from the phones settings.

Yes, you can, but I would use the UD ISY-994i, then if you get that you can just turn it on/off from your phone or whatever you want, I run everything off of my ISY and smartphone.

The answer is yes - It can be turned off for individual handsets or the base or all.

Yes, to conserve the battery you can use the rangefinder without turning on the GPS. Note the battery is rechargeable and last for a few rounds even with the GPS turned on.

According to Garmin's web site in the FAQ section, the ads will be turned off when you turn the traffic option off. You cannot disable one without disabling the other. Glad to have the option though.

Yes. If you go to the options menu at the top left of the screen then select settings. At the bottom of the returned settings screen select the GPS settings. Turn on any alerts you want to hear. Click on the green button with an I in the middle if you want information about what each option does.

This phone doesn't even have a Glonass GPS and beside, in order to do that "if it works" You'll need and app that aloud you to save the maps before going offline. I will recommend you to purchase a Garmin GPS or something better. Not this cellphone

Unfortunately, you cannot turn it off unless you remove the battery. When you remove the battery, all the memory, including your stride measurement, etc. will be erased and you will have to re-enter all that information when you reinstall the battery. My first battery lasted for well over a year.

Yes you can turn it on and off, in fact to turns itself off if disconnected for a bit. I also found that my phone will not auto connect to it like it does with my car, I need to reconnect (not re-pair) each time I turn it on.

The GPS feature cannot be turned off, but you can use other media players like QuickTime and VLC to playback the driving video without showing the location data. The recorded video file format is standard MP4.

No this phone doesn't have the kind of GPS we want like for driving to some point or walking to some point, which we are used to in cars and which is available in higher end phones such as E 71, N85, N95, N96It has assisted GPS which takes positioning from close cell phone towers which basically is of no real use if you intend to use it as CAR based GPS.It has Nokia maps though which can be used via bluetooth when connected with real GPS device such as above mentioned phones or devices such as TOM TOM, Garmin etc.

To the best of my knowledge there is no GPS function on this basic phone (Samsung T105). It isn't at all like a smart phone.

Yes, but you can also turn it off. There is a switch on the side. I turn mine off. I do not want the phone to answer by itself when I am not around, like a gosh. Lol

Bharat, you are right. The GPS feature in this phone works without any data plan. To answer your question, 1) You will get turn by turn driving directions only after your phone gets GPS signal and selecting 'Drive to' location. The options will be appearing only after your phone gets GPS signal. 2) To turn on GPS, you just open 'Maps' application and wait for GPS signal. The GPS signal strength is displayed at the bottom righ corner of the phone. It may take from 5 mins to 30 mins to get enough GPS signal strength when you are outside the building. I hope this helps. If not, plz let me know.

I've used mine outdoor and the GPS is disabled. Still worked (I was within WiFi connectivity for cloud syncing).
