Android: GPS Turn On Randomly Help! by pendusky(m): 4:13pm On Sep 08, 2014
Has anyone else had an issue with their gps radio randomly turning on. I am sure I'm not accidently pressing it cause I just see the icon turn on in the status bar...I wouldn't have problem with it but its draining my battery fast.. though I am Making a research on how to disable that permanently but does anyone have any solution?
