I'm a long time Waze but when running Waze on my OPX there's no GPS icon in the status bar. With Google Maps there is. I'm wondering if this is a Waze bug or if this is an indication that Waze is not using actual GPS but rather WiFi to determine my position. One of the things I've noticed is that Waze is slower to react when I don't follow the route that it was on my OPO.
Anyone else seen this?
Same on H2OS. No icon. But i did use it a few days on Oxygen OS and Waze seemed fine. BUT not as fast as my previous phone, so something IS wrong here...
Works fine for me.
But you're right no GPS icon. When you open the notification drawer, "Localisation" is all right. You can long clic on it to see your settings.

Anybody using Tasker on their Streaks?
I just started playing with the 7 day trial, and it seems very powerful.
However I can't seem to get the "turn on wifi" when a particular app is launched.
The wifi icon never shows up in the status bar on my Streak, and the apps don'tr recognize it as enabled, however the "power control" widget and the drop down of the notification bar does show wifi enabled/disabled as expected (app launched or closed).
Other events (say brightness to max if app x is launched seem to work fine.
But so far not wifi or Bluetooth - whcih i two big ones for an app like this.
Anybody having any luck with this on their Streak?
often, when im using the nav built into maps, the sound/vocals disappear for no apparent reason, anyone else have this problem?
I've turned off all of the location services in settings, but my notification bar still has an icon that looks like the GPS is still on. It's a circle with a cross in it and arrows at the cardinal directions. I've even turned GPS off using the power control widget, but it's still there. Anyone know what this and how to get rid of it?

That is the GPS icon and unless you are unlocked you cannot get rid of it (that I know of).
Can anyone help with this. I did a Google search and looked in teh phone where the icon description list is and there is no info on this.
On the notification bar there is a new icon i have never seen. It is to the left of the 4G and is like GPS but it's not a circle but more of a diamond shape with curved signal bars going towards the right, at the 4G icon. I feel kinda silly but since nothing I've changed in the settings anywhere has turned it off.
Thanks

It's gps/location services (not just standalone). The bars can be removed by turning off location services but the icon itself remains from what I've seen. Probably icon represents at least e911?

Hey thanks. It reminded me of GPS but looked different. So non-GPS but standard Location Services will keep that on? Too bad, it just clutters the notification bar.
Yeah i tested it out and the icon does stay but the signal bars go away if you turn off location services totally off. Bummer. I see that as something to maybe fix in the custom roms.
So I was thinking, it would be very nice to get Navigation Notifications on the Gear Fit.
The problem is, if you activate notifications for Maps in the Gear Fit Manager and turn on navigation,
notifications won't show up. That's because the type of notification Maps is using.
I looked a bit into it and it seems i found an easy solution.
Someone would just have to write a small app, that's sending a normal notification
every time the actual Maps notification is updating.
Sure, you woud have to delete them later on since they will fill up your Bar,
but anyway, it would work. Just think of cycling for example or what ever.
Maybe i will try to do it, but if someone is experienced in this...would be nice to have.
A dedicated App could be useful as well, but would be harder to do.
Let me hear what you think of it.
Nice idea!

nice idea ! i think it will be also a good idea to have notification from WAZE : radar notification, accident , etc
yeah sure it would work with nearly everything.
i was researching a bit more into this and the app could be like this:
list with all your apps
checkbox so you can select all the apps you want to have notifications
some settings with intervalls etc.
this will also bypass the 10 apps limitation since you can select just this one app
and it will send all the notifications you need:good:
