Description

Exists in v1.0 and v1.1. The location listener is set to update upon any change in location. This can cause rapid battery depletion. This functionality is scheduled to be re-written.

To work around this problem is in the EsriQuickStart library under the delayedStartLocationService() method and use gpsSnapshotMode. This will cause the location service to shut off once a reasonably accurate location has been determined.

Future enhancements may add additional code to allow further fine tuning of the location service.
