EVERY setting in Maps is turned off. No latitude, now, or anything. I'm down to manually disabling GPS now. I'll check my phone randomly to see the time, look for missed messages, etc, and I can see the freaking GPS fix icon in the status bar for a second. How do I convince Maps not to keep my phone awake to get a GPS fix?

If this is a software reflash all the stock .img with fastboot. Search for it at another thread. Let me see if I can find it again. If that doesn't work disable the GPS in any way possible. That's what I would do. I clearly don't have this problem. Might've been a bug in maps when you got the phone.

Trying to find certain asks that will stay on screen always.

My question may sound confusing but I'm looking for asks that will always stay on my screen.
The purpose of this us to get rid of the status bar in which I feel is so expired but should still pull down when there is a notification. Anyways here's is what I got so far

I have the battery always showing which is nice. Now if I could have a time one I'll be happy. A date one and signal is a plus but not nessassary. Sorry I can't spell.
It's like how windows phone is set up how you can use your full screen but still know what's going on with your phone at a glance which I'd what I'm trying to aim for.

GPS always on even though I've turned it off.

Ok so for Google maps to find my location I have to turn on the "allow google apps to use this phones location anytime the device is on" in Google maps settings.

Now after I use maps, let it find my location and then turn off gps from notification menu the gps stays on no matter what I do.
I even went to apps ops (nova launcher) and seen that Google maps was still using my location and turned it off but the gps was still on.
What could be the problem?

Can't solve this note 4 riddle

See pics below. I noticed that my phone is always awake.
I have tried gsam battery and it offers no inclination as to what is causing it.
I have turned off all location settings. But she still stays awake. I don't think my battery life is bad, but I have ocd and know it isn't right. Any ideas? If I reboot phone it will act normally until at some point phone again stays awake.
In below example my screen on time is 1.5 hours.

One of your apps is causing it
Bummer. Can't root (Verizon) so hard to tell which one.

Split screen view.

Anyone see this message without holding the app switcher button?
It just randomly appears, even when my fingers are no where near the capacitive buttons.
If the current app supports it, all of a sudden I have split screen view when I don't want it.
Anyone know if there is something I can disable in package disabler to turn it off? I don't ever use it.

I installed a theme from the theme store and for some reason it stopped. Same for my wife. Can't understand why this wasn't fixed in the update. Seems like an issue with everyone.
The newest Software Update fixes the random activation of SplitScreen.
I've never had this issue.

GPS Tracking not possible?

Hi,
for running and sports, I use Runtastic to track my GPS location but im still not able to record a whole training with that phone.
First try: Blindly hoped everything will work. I ran 40 Minutes. After 5 GPS was lost. After 15 APP stopped recording running time.
Second try:
Deactivated Battery Optimization for Runtastic
Deactivated both extended Battery Optimization options
Deactivated Intelligent Battery
Then I ran again with the result of loosing GPS after 15 minutes. App recorded the time normally. So at least one step further.
What can I also do? I dont want to root or flash roms. Thanks for any reply
Here is my run in result:
