[android-developers] Re: switching GPS on and off

once again, maybe it is too much sun over here :)

1. gps is on (powered, whatever) when some app tries to obtain
location info
2. gps is off if there is no app looking for location
3. you then said that
"For example, HTC Sense phones have a home screen feature that looks
like an on/off switch for GPS. That, however, controls whether GPS is
enabled."

so there is some other state that gps can be in and it can be
controlled by application. and yes I dont really understand the
difference between on and enabled.
