If I leave gps off, my battery is great an maps doesn't show up in battery usage. But if I leave gps on, I get this. I've never touched latitude so not sure why this is happening.

Do you have Google Now installed? Mine started showing up once I installed Now because it would look for my location.
But my battery hasn't suffered at all, really. Maps just shows up now

No don't have Google now. I went into settings in maps and then location settings. I then turned location reporting to do not report. I'm gonna try this an see if it fixes it.

Does anyone know why the gps gets activated in the stock camera apps on Bionix Frost and Bionix Black Ice?
Also I can't figure out how to disable it. There seems to be no option to disable it. Can we? If so how.
Thanks

I could've sworn this happened on the stock roms too, but are you talking about gps getting enabled even though you had it off, or the gps icon popping up

I'm talking about it getting enabled even though it is off. And there is no way to turn it off in the app.

Main settings/location and security/ then uncheck everything in my location. That should do the trick

how many accounts to do you have sync'd to the phone? gmail, facebook, sense (etc)
and do you have the networks and locations all checked, for navigation etc.
I Didnt have the VZW location checked just standalone and Google I took standalone off and checked VZW is that right or should I have all 3??
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
You can use whatever you want. I leave google location services enabled and then I enable standalone gps whenever I need it (ie. Navigation, maps, etc.)
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Ok so I can turn the vzw one off to?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
you can turn them all off, just back on if you need navigation.
Oooo ok thanks!

pretty sure that shouldnt be draining the battery like that. check the accounts that are set to sync on your phone (gmail, facebook) and see the interval that each is set to refresh.
It was set to 1hr I switched it to 4 maybe that should help

And my weather was set at 15mins switched it to 2 he's

so all you have syncing is gmail and weather?
I had to turn everything off, message stopped.
What's the best way to get GPS to work properly? It takes me anywhere from 4-6 mins for a lock. And while it's trying to lock on, the battery just drains. I use GPS tool to get a lock and trying to cold start it. What's everyone's solution to this?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
For me 100% reliable: use GPS status to download AGPS data>reboot (must be outside obviously)>use GPS status to get lock>use location app of choice.
Also, on March Baseband, I get GPS locks on the bus moving down the street. If need a functional GPS you really need to be on the newer baseband.

I on V21Y. That worked pefectly. Thanks!

NP. Yea, it's stupid, no reason I can see for the need to reboot, but GPS lock seems dependent on it.

When I install a weather app the GPS lock times become unreliable, if it locks at all. (CM9 with Proton) I tried turning off the location detection on the ones with the choice, but still...
Any suggestions on what to try next troubleshooting that behaviour?

How does your GPS fair with Google maps and in GPS tools app?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Like I described. Slow or no lock with weather apps, pretty good without.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
Well if it is working on other apps sounds like gmaps, etc then the weather app itself isn't up to par...that's all I can offer hopefully someone else can chime in more to help you.

What I mean to say is, with the different WX apps I've installed, Maps and other GPS apps don't get a reliable lock. Without WX, works pretty well.

If your maps or GPS apps aren't working right try AGPS patch that a on the forums. Another alternative is to try GPS aids app or GPS doctor app. They might fix it for you.
My GPS was not working properly I used those two apps and now I am around 5-8 meters accuracy with about 10-20second lock.
If anything it might just be the rom.

Hello can someone please explain to me why backup wake lock is constantly causing my battery to drain and is there anyway to resolve this apart from taking the backup option off as this would delete everything from the Google servers
I found this backup wake lock Usk g better battery stats of that helps
Thanks in advance

The only time I saw this was with the EntriesRefresh googlesearch wakelock.
It doesn't happen anymore, I did 2 things: turn off Google photos auto sync and I let the wifi on all the day (even when I'm not using it)
No more Google wakelocks !

Try using the juice defender
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Have you tried first unselecting all google syncs (mail, calendar, drive, google+, etc...) and then reselecting only those you need? Also try disabling Google backup service for a while..
Yeh I tried u checking the backup box but didn't make any difference I will try juice defender and see how that goes for
Thanks for your replies
