Hi,

Thanks, I was trying to do it programatically. But as you said the GPS is
turn on/off automatically I dont have to switch it on/off. Now I will need
to check whether GPS is on/off. will the Location manager be helpful for
this or do I need to access a different set of apis.

Thanks & Regards,
Yousuf Syed
