Icon of location services isn't lost

firstly sorry for bad English I have the problem with LS. when LS is turned off, icon of LS isn't losting from header. What is the problem? any solve? to restore didn't help.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

Recent update affecting location services

So my Galaxy S3 did a firmware update two days ago, and now Google maps location services isn't working. Even though I have all location options checked, it still won't find my location, and prompts me to enable said services. Has anyone else noticed this issue?

Me too. Didn't there use to be a charge for these services? Maybe that was VZW Navigation. I never saw a point to that when Google's Maps and Navigation were free.
As usual after major updates, it seems that defaults need to be re-selected. I went to navigate to a location last night and was asked whether I wanted to do it using Maps or VZW Navigation, and of course selected the former and made it the default. So it is possible to have GPS/VZW location services turned on without being forced to use VZW Navigation.
Suspicious as I can be of Verizon's motives, I don't think they can really charge us for location services without our explicit permission. I do note this, however, from p. 169 of the original S4 manual (back when you had to give explicit permission for VZW location services):
By selecting VZW location services, you are enabling Verizon Wireless and third-party authenticated and validated location-enabled services access to certain location information available through this device and/or the network.
I would have to assume that that data gathering is taking place every time we use GPS now--and without our explicit consent. Has anyone seen anything from Verizon that has a bearing on this?
OTOH, p. 170 of that manual has the following about the standalone GPS service that used to be listed separately from Verizon location services:
By selecting Standalone GPS services, you are allowing access to all location information by any third party through web access or any software or peripheral components you choose to install, download, add, or attach to the device or any other means. Enabling this functionality could pose certain risks to users of this device.
If anything, this sounds even scarier! But in the present state of affairs--since no updated manual or help ever comes with a software update--we have no idea who is collecting location data or what they might be doing with it. Not cool, to say the least!

HT5467 How to change the location service set up when the icon is not inactive?

I can not setting up the location services and change individual location service for each application since the icon are all in the dead icon and I cannot change anything. Is there anyway to make those icons in active?

Here is what I was referring to - when in Control Center, I have the database locations. (sources, targets, OWF etc). Under a database location I selected the connector/location name under Connectors. When I select Deploy Action to Drop the connector/location name will remain. However, if you were to check in the database or the Repository Browser (Locations Report) you will see that the db link is gone. At this point you can safely modify the Locations info in the Connection Explorer (in Design Center). On the other hand, if you want the location to be deleted all together then now you can delete it in the Connection Explorer panel. If you did the prior drop step then at this point all db link info should be gone from the database.

HT4528 I recently downloaded the newest software and now my Iphone 4s shows the location services Icon is on all the time. How can I change this back to what we originally had or is there a fix for this?

When I downloaded the most recent software update the location services Icon showed up even thought I was not running any programs. Is this something new and is it going to drain my battery? This was not happening before the download. I am told I have to just turn off the location services biut I do use them on a daily basis and it seems to be a pain to have to shut if off everytime. Does anyone know how to fix this or am I just screwed until I upgrade the phone?

Hi Avahhava,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
As a first step, I would suggest restarting and/or resetting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If you have tried those two things, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:

HT201365 I recently lost my iphone 4s, ios 7, find my iphone on, location services off, icloud shows device offline. Personal Information in iphone(pics, docs) compromised?Please Help.

Hello,
I recently got my iphone stolen. Its a 4S with IOS 7. Find my iphone was on. Location services were off. After stolen, went to icloud find my iphone, device was listed but offline. I put it in lost mode and a message. Put a passcode too. It said lost mode pending. After several hours, put it in erase mode. Now it says erase pending. Unfortunately there was no passcode for home screen when it was stolen. I called my iphone several times, it went straight to voicemail. I did not report the iphone stolen yet because i want my device erased. It does not erase if no internet.
My question is this. If the iphone was turned off, can they turn it on, disable cellular data (wifi was off before stolen) and still browse the iphone with no internet connection? Pictures, notes, pdf files, text messages being accessed? Also, if they remove sim card, will activation lock still work wirth no cellular data or internet connection?
Thank you for your help.

Not if you had a screen passcode set, no, they can't. If you didn't set a screen passcode, then they can most certainly get into your iPhone and access your information.
Also, if they remove sim card, will activation lock still work wirth no cellular data or internet connection?
Activation Lock will remain no matter what they do to the iPhone.

I have lost my iphone5 recently. Luckily, the location services were on and I could trace the phone twice, but was still unable to get it back. I was wondering, can the thief restore all the settings of the phone with or without the charger?

When the lost mode still on?
As my phone is registered with my ID, can he disturb the whole setting and remove my Apple ID so that it cannot be tracked to my ID anymore?
( I don't need to know how, I need to know yes or no).
Once the find my iphone location service is disabled, it is of no use.
Apparently, I believe apple should make sure that once somebody puts his phone in the "Lost mode", all location services should be turned on by default.
The person should not be allowed to turn it off, and neither delete the "Find my iphone" app. In that way, the service may prove beneficial.

So, the only glimpse of hope for me is through IMEI tracking?
Are there any professionals who do IMEI tracking( I dont mind paying them)? I don't trust the police here, they are damm slow..

I lost my ipod and i dont have my location services on how can i turn them on from another device?

I lost my ipod with my location services off therefore i dont think find my iphone can pick it up is there a way to turn them on from another device? If not what are my options of finding it?

No.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product

Did you have a passcode lock on it? Or did you have restrictions enabled? If not, it is very possible someone has found it, simple disabled location services in settings, and is using it. If you did not secure it, anyone with it can do anything they want with it as it is when found.

Location service icon keeps appearing on iPhone4

I am not sure since which app i've installed, my iPhone4 keeps location service icon displays on the menu bar for ever.
I've quitted all background processes or restart the phone, but the icon is still there.
Is that because i enable find my phone?

The icon keeps appearing when I enable location service for Google Latitude, and it's gone after I disable this app.
This is how it's supposed to work, after you close the app using location services, the icon should be gone again.

When i turn my location service my network is lost and joins again and it is lost again ? in iphone 3gs any idea ?

when i turn my location service my network is lost and joins again and it is lost again it happens again and again
in iphone 3gs
any idea how to resolve it ?

OK - more details/info now.
When I use terminal and type this:
drutil eject
I believe the DVD drives makes the odd noise I heard when I booted the laptop up.
Any thoughts?
I'm guessing that means my fan/hardrive are actually OK then, and it's probably the mechanism in the DVD drive that is causing problems?
I'm almost certain there's no DVD stuck in there?

You need to have the iPhone in your posession to alter that setting. That is something you should have done before it was lost.
