Bug Description

On the Aquaris E4.5 (ubuntu 14.10 r21, Utopic Unicorn dev, armhf 20150410-232623), I've noticed the following:

- even though I've disabled GPS and "Location detection", the crosshair icon is always on.
- after playing around with *enabling* the GPS and waiting a bit, the icon *disappeared*. and then I found that the icon does stay away when disabling it again. perhaps GPS was on the whole time after all?

Further info:
- this icon had been on since I got the phone (and restarted at least two times)
- I've disabled GPS almost the first thing I did

Cheers,
Walter

Is that still an issue on r22? That seems similar to bug #1450564 which got fixed in the most recent ota update

No idea; I only noticed this when initially using the phone.

If you think it's fixed in the next version, I'll believe you. I'll reopen if it happens again.

Thanks!
