Hello, i'd like to ask a question...
Is there a application or any other way to notify me when GPS locks position?

I need to geotag pictures with camera app but in 4.2.1 JB there is no icon to show if

Hi community,
is there an app or a widget for activation the GPS directly?
Since I have been on Gingerbread the Exctended Controls and the other widget cannot activate GPS directly. There only comes the android menu where I can check the box to activate the GPS.
Under Froyo it functioned perfectly, under GB it isn't possible anymore :-(
I tried an older version of EC, it doesn't run under GB. The new one opens the menu. It seems to be only a shortcut :-(
Or is it a security policy in GB? Is there are workaround?
How can I solve my problem?
Thx for answers!

Are there any widget with that functionality which run under gingerbread?
I tried Extended Controls, SwitchPro, EasySwitch, Widetsoid. Always the same result
Furthermore I tried the same widgets on Froyo and it functions. So I think it might be caused by the Gingerbread.
Does anybody know how to change the settings/policies/etc. to reach the aim?
Thx

In Statusbar you have GPS icon, pres that and you make on (green) or off (gray) GPS activity...You dont need any 3th apk for that.

You are right...
But it is not only the GPS which doesn't function anymore. The "data mode" for example has the same effect.
So I think it would be interesting to know what is the reason for this behaviour and how to change it.
Hi,
short question, search didn't come up with somethink useful:
is it possible to disable the multitouch-gestures in google maps?
When I pinch-to-zoom in Maps, the app sometimes accidentaly recognizes it as the rotate-gesture, which doesn't work properly on the desire, so this is quite annoying as it is almost impossible to realign the view to the north-south.
I remember this feature not being active on Auraxtsense (at least I didn't come across this bug). Now I am using Oxygen (2.0.3).
Is there a way to disable the rotation in google Maps?
You can tap on the compass icon at top left to re-align map to north-south. I don't think there is a way to disable the rotation.

uhm, thanks, I somehow missed that
Hi guys,
I am using stock rom, and there is a GPS reticle in the status bar all the time, even I don't use gps.
Anyone knows how to remove it? or any mod already there can do it?

I have already disabled all location settings, but the icon is still there - shows gps disabled
You have an app that constantly needs your location to be checked - such as Weather.
Please post in the correct section next time.

Can you upload a screenshot of it?
Is there a way to calibrate our GPS signal or location? Looks like my stock weather application is giving me my incorrect location. Hope someone could help.

Are you using a custom rom?
If so please read the following post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1239713
Create you own gps.conf file and update it every time you flash a new rom.
The gps.conf is for accuracy and fast lock of GPS signal.
Your weather app gives you the info based on the most closest weather location info.
Is impossible to have weather info in every locations, so the app shows the nearest location !

I have not found one that can do the job...most of them takes you into the location settings, not just activate gps. But thank you for replying.
Any idea?
