Lately I've noticed that my GPS is turning on momentarily while the screen is off.
I don't have latitude enabled, or any apps which use GPS and no widgets being used.
Is there any application I can use to see what is using the GPS? I've used better battery stats and the only thing related to gps is the wakelock "NetworkLocationActiveCollector" by com.google.android.apps.maps.Maps
I don't have a decent example but below you can see the gps has come on momentarily over night when the phone isn't being used. Normally there'll be about 4-5 occurances, is it something to do with the phone caching wifi locations when "Use wireless networks" is ticked

Any way to find out what's causing this? Battery is draining so fast all of a sudden.

From googling, deleted_wake_locks and multipdp are for wifi rouiter and data transfer respectively.
Thats just from a quick google though.
yeh i did google it but its only just started happening and my wi-fi has been switched off, i assume its an app causing it but not sure which. If i look at the graph in battery details the phone is constantly waking up when the screen is off. i've been getting like 1 hour screen time and my battery dying by 8:00pm last few days or so.
Has anyone else notices that Google Maps is showing as using a lot of the battery when they haven't been using it? This morning I rebooted my phone, left when it was 100% charged and did not open Maps once, yet this is the battery stats:

Edit: I am using Google Latitude, perhaps that is the problem?
Maps has become a hog on my Thunderbolt as well. It's not just the Note 2.
Well I went into location settings and turned off everything such as reporting from the device and keeping a history, I rebooted my phone and now Maps isn't even on the list.
hello!
I've rooted & installed TitaniumBackup in the very first day, but somehow I've found missing gps-related(?) app.
also it seems that phone can't use GPS sats without a-gps. Many times I used GPS Test & GPS Status in the street -- it found some sats but used none.
Who know this app and how it affects gps function?
and where can I take apk to restore it?)

i use native ROW, just rooted
service test shows "GPS -- OK"
SNR - -15
My setup at home includes having a main router and a repeater so I am frequently having switching networks. However, recently for no reason in the drop down under wifi in the quick settings it says "no saved networks available". Therefore I have to click more settings and do it there. Although this may not be a major issue it is just very unclear to me as to why this has happened - I cannot think of anything I have done to cause this.
The attached image shows what I see and yes, I do have a layer applied (not that it should have anything to do with it) but that was applied long before this occurred. I have tried removing it and the result wasn't any different.
Anyone know what could be the issue?

Hi guys, I have a P9000 phone running Android 6.0. I noticed that the GPS/location icon is always active even if the GPS has not yet locked on my position. On every phone I have checked when the GPS has not yet locked on the position the icon is grayed out, once the position is fixed the icon will turn to white or active. In my case, it is always active even if it is still locking into position
What could be causing this? Is there a setting somewhere to correct this? The thing is I do not know if the GPS has already locked on since it is always active, this is the screenshot:
