Hi, my problem is that every time i turn the screen off the gps goes on. If i lock the screen and turn it on after five seconds the gps icon is active on the status bar.
At first I thought it was some misbehaving app, but now I've frozen almost all apps using the permission ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, but the problem is still there.
The application using the gps appears to be google maps, is this behavior normal? I don't have latitude activated, autosync is off.
I keep gps on because I have seekdroid installed and on gingerbread apps can't self-enable gps
You don't per chance have Tasker installed or some other location based widget on your home screens do you?
If you do have a location widget working (Like Lattitude or Loopt) there is probably a setting to check to tell it not to automatically turn on location.
Is there a way to let apps like Google Maps turn on my GPS without my permission? I'm tired of dragging the notification bar, hitting the GPS icon, and clicking "accept".
Hello all,
Since I enabled Xtra download for faster GPS lock, an empty download notification keeps showing up.
It seems it's notifying a background download.
I've tried on different ROMs and have the same problem.
Is there a way to disable this kind of blank notification?
Thanks
Its the agps conf file downloading... you'll have to configure that gps app for not to update it so often, or try gpstest, and update agps manually under the settings menu....

I am running ICS 404 with CWM on Micromax A90S. When GPS is on and any related app is running like maps/waze, gps test etc, GPS icon appears is notification bar. It stays there once locked. However if I minimize the app pressing the home key, the app runs in the background but the gps signal disappears. So when the app is launched again, it takes time to lock. Is this default in Android?
Hi. I've an app that I use frequently and I have set it to run when screen is off in battery settings. It's a GPS tracking app (Flo). But when I exit the app and clear it from app switcher, the app keeps running in background.
How do I exit this app without entering Settings>Apps>Flo and then Force Close it?
So when I'm Finished tracking my trip and exit the app, I don't want it to run in background.
