We waste $10,000,000 trying to migrate to another man's country. At 400/N that is a whooping 400 Billion naira. That is more than the budget of some state.

That's small compared to what Nigerians make from there and return home

You're right about the problem on tecno ..
Tecno has had plenty issues on their phone software .
I had to build my own rom some years ago before I could enjoy a borrowed tecno.
It's a software permission thingy from the stk application (the sim tool kit aka magic plus underlay) and affects some MTK phones as well.
It's not under glo's control but results from poor software build issues

But it doesn't happen on other networks on the same phone. Only with Glo.Glo turns on gps automatically

Phones / Glo Turns On GPS On Some Versions Of Android Phones by ekenetheorg(m): 10:18am On Aug 20, 2016
When someone posted about glo's slow network and included the battery draining issue of automatically turning on gps, some laughed it off. But I can authoritatively say that it is true. I've checked about 3 different Tecno H5 phones where Mtn and Etisalat 3G network works on without issues. But with Glo, despite all settings, once your data is turned on or you answer a call,GPS comes on in less than 2 minutes.

This is a great battery drainer. There are already threads where people complained of the issues. Some have had to reset and root their phones to avoid this, but it keep happening. I've reached out to glo via Twitter some months back about this, but they seem clueless.

Technically oriented guys here can look out for people with similar issues to verify. Glo may not need your location data, but there is definitely an unidentified glitch in their network that is causing this.

Worst is that glo won't look into this with a single post, but if everyone concerned complains, and this fact is verified by many others, this issue could be looked into.

Google Glo sim turns on GPS if in doubt. If you have similar issue, please talk about your battery draining experience. If you haven't experienced the issue but believe a setting is causing it, find a Tecno H5 phone or other affected phones and configure it. Test it by browsing or making a call. After 2 min, post your experience.

Thanks.

Op, by now you should know that isp performance is based on location.

Also, it's impossible for Glo or any other network to turn on your phones GPS.
Check your phone settings, or maybe you installed a rogue app.

Glo turns on gps in some versions of Android phones.Get the facts right. Find a Tecno H5

Glo puts on your GPS? Wow... Another level of ignorance


Let me help you with this..

The reason why the GPS turn on when the data is turned on is because your GPS settings is in high accuracy which makes your phone use Assisted GPS (gps with data )

If you don't want the GPS ,turn of both the GPS service And location based service.

Glo or any other provider doesnt need your GPS for anything .they already track you via triangulation from their base stations.

Bro, go and find Tecno H5 and see what happens. OP is right. After all settings, it comes back on after just 2min

kiddie:

glo won't and can't automatically turn on your gps check your phone especially if it's rooted

It doesn't happen with your phone. But it happens with several phones. Try Tecno H5 and see the magic happen. Glo can't even fix this because it has been proven several times with many phones. Verify before speaking with authority next time. A simple Google search of glo turns on my gps will help.

Go out there with your HND Certificate and let those who graduated in a university present their B.Sc Certificate then you'll know those firms, Companies haven't removed the whatever they call it 'cos they'll mostly prefer the B.Sc to the HND.

You may call the Adamu Adamu to come to your Aid if such happens to you! grin grin

You used the word fallacy which meant l was lying when in reality these are names l come across almost on a daily basis. It is like Egerton University, a University here in Kenya whose Chairman of Council is Dr. Raerdon Olubayo and he is 100% Kenya of the Luhya tribe....No bad blood.

Fallacy.... Not a lie but an assumption from a little sample taken. It might not be enough to generalise.... When you hear fallacy, please don't assume you are being called a liar.... It's just a brain cracking stuff

Business / Re: Help A Brother - Invest In A Start-up. by ekenetheorg(m): 7:34pm On Jun 15, 2016
24% under 18 months might seem so little for this size of investment. For Billions, it may sound good. I know banks pay lower but trust me, many businesses will earn you 100% in less than 18 months.... Just my thought cos u asked for contributions too. Since you need investors and not helpers, you may need to do something attractive like saying they will own a specific even if it is 0.1% of business for life.... etc

Science/Technology / 5 Things You Can Do Whenever Your Internet Data Subscription Is Close To Expiry by ekenetheorg(m): 8:01am On Jun 07, 2016
1. Roll Over Unused Data Bundle To The Next Month.

Most networks can move your remaining data bundle to the next month if subscribe again before the expiry date reaches. Some even enroll you to automatic renewal, which is a good thing. Always try and leave the amount of airtime required to renew your subscription so that any unused data will be pushed over to the next subscription, and prevent being wasted when they expire.

2. Upload And Backup Photos & Files On The Cloud

We are in an age where information and data have become so digitized that even losing a phone is less important than the data that has been lost with it. In essence, some people tend to value the data in their phones, tablets and laptops, than the device themselves. These group should be able to take advantage of cloud storage like Google Drive and Drop Box and upload any important data when their data subscription is about to expire.

3. Update Anti-Virus Software

We often ignore to update and even manually disable the automatic update of our antivirus software, because we don’t want it to suck our internet data subscription dry. But the right time to update an antivirus software and not waste your data could be this period, when the subscription is about to expire.

4. Windows Update

Although this could have been placed in the same category as the antivirus software update above, but windows update is more like a suite of windows application being updated through the same channel, and many people disable this feature on the first day of getting a laptop. If your data subscription is about to expire, please take advantage of this and handle your windows update. Android users can also find software that needs to be updated through the Play Store and update in a similar manner.

5. Download New Videos, Music and Applications

It would be lovely to be able to download whatever you need without being afraid of using up your data subscription. The best period to enjoy this feeling is when your subscription is about to expire. We all love entertainment, and nothing could provide that as much as video contents, songs and other applications like games etc. You can decide to play online games and even stream videos through Youtube.

There is something about Enugu that makes anyone who has stayed in the state for up to a year wanna return again. The city is liberal, no fanaticisms about any issues from religion to culture to politics. Enugu is also a peaceful place with lots of good suburbs, but there are also peaceful ghettos - Phyno will tell you. Also, Enugu has the prettiest ladies. Enugu wins abeg, plus night life there is New York standard.
