Re: "Location tracking on" is back again

Thanks, Shai. That setting is still off, so that's not it. There are some interesting things under system services, a few of which are on, some of which I don't exactly know what turning them off would do. Something like Wi-Fi calling, which is currently off, or compass calibration which is
