Filip Maj commented on CB-509:
------------------------------
Hey all,
Related to this, CB-359 won't land until 1.8 (since we don't want to drop new
features in 1.7). Probably should remove the "depends on" to that issue in here
if you still want to land this for 1.7.

> Project: Apache Callback
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: iOS
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0
> Reporter: Andrea Zicchetti
> Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: CDVLocation, battery, clearWatch, gps, shutdown,
> stopLocation
> Fix For: 1.7.0

> Attachments: CDVLocationShim.zip

> Original Estimate: 0.5h

> Calling navigator.geolocation.clearWatch doesn't shut the GPS down.
> It's no longer possible to manually invoke geolocation.stop() (and thus the
> corresponding stopLocation function in CDVLocation), which was a temporary
> solution with previous phonegap/cordova versions.
> It's quite a problem because an application using the GPS even for a short
> amount of time will completely drain the battery in a few hours.
