Hey I was reading earlier about the possibility of being tracked if you let someone use your phone since they can install a tracking app that could use your GPS without you knowing.so my question is, assuming that they already installed a spying app, could it use my GPS without having the GPS icon displayed in my notification bar?

Maybe I don't fully understand your needs but surely almost every phone on the planet has a built in answering system linked with their provider.

No. The operators provide only voice mail options.
A good auto answering software / appn, I doubt, is available.

He he.. I remember the advanced call manager app I used in Nokia phones. Awesome app,. But none is available for Android.
I just recently started getting this notification in my notification bar:
It is a red star and when I pull down the notifications it states: Increase Speed here, optout: xapus... and that is all I can see. If I click on it it takes me to a page advertising "Boost Your Signal!". When you click on that it takes you to the playstore for an app called Signal Booster from Fred Baker.
I consider this spam but don't know how to get rid of it.
I am currently running Hyperdrive 12 with Zeus kernal.
Thanks,

Download AirPush Detector in the store, that should be able to locate the offending app.

I always leave a 1 star review for airpush apps and delete. Garbage.

Ad Blocking apps also help (even though I think they're rather unethical)

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?

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.

Once you have a lock do you have any issues with stability, losing it etc?
