Samsung Galaxy S4 on Verizon. I have three GPS options:
VZW location services
Standalone GPS services
Wi-Fi & mobile network location
Also have the box above with allows me to turn "Access to my location" on or off. This seems to apply to a lot of apps and there doesn't seem to be a way to limit it. However, if I turn it off, most Google services, particularly Chrome Beta, keep hounding me.
What does each of these services do, what apps or service is behind them and how do I have some GPS without turning them all on and having a real hit on my battery.
I think the most important thing for me is being able to locate the phone when lost or stolen. Or....if I'm lost or stolen it would be nice if I could be located as well
I would like to put Cerebrus on this phone as soon as I figure out the GPS issue.
Can someone clarify the differences and suggest how they best be handled?
Thanks.
