With OTA 10.1 on my BQ E5 GPS did turn itself on every now and so on - without me turning locationservices on, that was still off. I could not find a pattern to it at the time. That was of course reducing battery lifetime. On OTA 10.1 the GPS on/off button was still available under the battery settings, that's how I found out about it. With OTA 11 this button has disappeared, so I do sometimes wonder if internally GPS is still turned on occasionally (and apps could be able to use location-services?) but now I do not have any way to find out.
So, yes with the indicator showing GPS usage that would solve that problem as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1407921 Title: Indicator should give feedback when location-service is in use by apps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1407921/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
