Practical iOS 5: save (a lot) of battery by deactivating GPS location which has become permanent!

You haveovercome the problems
error 3200and finallyinstalled iOS 5 on your
iPhonelast night.

Today you went to work and... you feel like
autonomy is reduced?So here is probably the solution
sent by Alex, (a big thank you to him):

In fact, geolocationremains active permanently
when, during the first configuration of the phone, you agree to be
geolocated forset time zonewhat is not
necessarily of fantastic use for the less traveled.

Except thatthe small arrow usually located at the top right
is not displayed, we suddenly do not surrendernot take into account that the
GPS is active and locates constantly!

in fact, it is entirely possible to activate this arrow display
to be certain of GPS activation in all cases. So, he
must :

• Enable the icon in Settings > Location Services > Services
  system > Status bar icon = ON. You can then exit and check
  if your GPS is running even when no GPS application is
  launched.

• if you want to save battery: in Settings >
  Location Services > System Services > Default time zone,
  Disable'Set time zone' passing it to
  zero.

At the same time, if you wish, you can also deactivate
'Location-based iAds' and other services if you see the GPS arrow
appear when you do not specifically have a geolocalized app
launched.
