Abstract: Waypoints can be automatically created by monitoring network wireless signal strength to help a user of a mobile device in a non-urban location to find a previous location with known network connectivity and make emergency calls. In some embodiments, a backtrack route is displayed on the mobile device to the closest previous location with network connectivity. In some embodiments, for privacy considerations, access to waypoint information stored in a secured storage/database is restricted based on the determination of location state, and backtrack routes are displayed in stages.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for determining and presenting an indication of a closest cellular service location in a wireless communication system. A wireless device may receive cellular connectivity event information. The wireless device may determine a closest cellular service availability location for the wireless device based at least in part on the cellular connectivity event information. An indication of the closest cellular service availability location may be presented via one or more user interface elements. The closet cellular service availability location may be different than a most recent cellular service availability location.
