Hey guys,

So I've been experiencing two ennoying problems:

1- Phone searches for a GPS fix whenever it wishes to

My phone will automatically start searching for a GPS fix and then stops. I had geotagging enable but I doubt it has something to do because the problem existed even before I enabled it.

Assuming you're on PR1.2, if you have charging notifier installed or proximus, they both use GPS to figure out your location to know where you are and if they should take specific actions.

If not have you tried rebooting?

I have disabled the background connection on my phone but I still get the prompt to select a connection almost everytime. I figured, there could have been a process requiring a connection in the background, so I disabled, all my feeds, and mail accounts. On top of that my power-saving mode is active as well.

Does anyone has an idea of what's going on? Thank you for your help.

Very strange. Assume you have updated to PR1.2? I had that bug in PR1.1 but it seems to be gone now.

I had this problem once when I installed an app on PR1.1 and it kept my online connection online constantly.

I can't tell you what I did to fix it, but I can tell you that a simple flash will fix it.

Yeah it's an annoying problem, this happens if U have Apps like Ebuddy, if these Apps are on and the Internet is off, when it's time to PUSH/Refresh internet is required then triggers those Prompt screens, I think Email Push, Feeds and Skype also trigger this.

Go under Push settings and see if anything is left running.

Yeah as I said, if one of them is active, pop ups don't stop, are U doing this to save the battery? Tried it before and battery lasted so much, unfortunately I need all those features so I turned them on again

Any leads on how to deal with this issue?

I think we need a App that can easily control background connections, also be able to detected what Apps are trying to connect to the internet so we caan easily switch them off when required.
