Who with ICS keeps the GPS satellites on?

[LS14EVR]

SO still trying to solve my issues and a guy at work said lets see what happens when we just use google location service and not the satellites. He also changed the wifi setting to NEVER keep wifi on during sleep.
Just curious how others are set? and if you have issues or not.

I always leave the GPS off unless I need it. I also have the wifi set to turn off when the phone sleeps. Seems to work pretty good for me that way.

Mine stays on all day every day.

All of my stuff is OFF except when I actually USE it. Major battery hog otherwise.

my wifi stays on as well as my gps and my battery lasts the whole day into the night with only about a 10% loss. Thats with talking and texting.

I used to be able to leave the GPS on all the time. It appears that was a huge hog on ICS. It may be a combination of that and the weather.com app. I'm still having very high OS usage though.

I'm getting horrible battery drain with ICS, but only when the phone is awake. I have the gps turned on in the settings, but it doesn't actually come on unless an app turns it on. If I set the phone down and the screen times out, the battery drain rate goes down a lot. It's only high when I'm doing something with it.

I have a question? When i leave gps on ics and receive a phone call my phone process crashes. I can't pick any phone calls. It also doesn't save the miss call either. Does anyone else have this problem?
