I don't think this is true. As I understand the API, there is no "reset", there is "subscribe to precise location using the android API and "stop subscribing". The OS will then put the GPS receiver chip in and out of power-saving deep sleep or whatever makes sense for that particular hardware. I have no reason to think that previous ephemeris data is discarded (should be discarded, or is on my device) during unsubscribe/subscribe. Lots of apps subscribe every N minutes until they get a fix and then stop; that's normal behavior. > Altitude has little to do with this or speed really.
