Keeps GPS On Even After Stopping

Bugreport for Ovi lifecasting

08-09-2009 19:45

Hey!

After I have used Ovi Lifecasting and removed it from my Homescreen, after I've updated my stats, I can not turn the GPS off, and it periodicly checks my location when I have no need for it, draining battery.

Is there any possible way to stop it from doing this after taking it off the Homescreen? Because I have to turn my phone off and back on in order to stop it from doing this and it's a pain.

Love the widget though, been using it loads!

I have noticed the same bug.

Thanks for reporting this: of course if you remove the home screen widget, location update should stop. I'm going to forward this information to the development team.
