Is there a way to turn off GPS after finishing with it?

The amber light on the right LED still flashes even that I have finished using Google Maps.

I rebooted the phone, it still flashes away!

you sure you dont have an unread text message? that also shows a flashing orange light. the gps is supposed to auto shut off after about 10 seconds of inactivity

On the home screen, it did show 32.

Marked all as read. And it's still flashing.

Soft reset the phone. And it has stopped flashing...

Hmm... a bit annoying. Going to see if I can turn it off.

Best bet in the short term as a test to see if the LED is signalling messages or GPS, is to go to Settings/Sounds and Notifications, and for each event type (Email, SMS etc) set 'Flash light' to off

If the LED still flashes it would assume that GPS is not turning off as it should (as the previous poster says, it should be about 10 seconds)

iv'e had the same problem with mine. Also what i have noticed is that when this happens the device drags and is soooo slow in is untrue. A soft reset does solve this problem but it is an annoyance having to keep doing it when i am testing Google maps.

Cheers,
