Enable GPS by default on boot? SIII/ICS

[ubastars]

Hello all and thanks in advance.

I want to make GPS on by default upon boot/rebooting the device. This is a solution for a common problem of not being able to remotley enable GPS in the event of phone geting lost or stolen.

You might not be able to remote enable GPS but if you can remote reboot and you can enable GPS by default then problem solved. Reboot the device, wait, bingo.

Can anyone help me out? Cheers

Id just leave it on all the time. the gps on the s3 does not use up near as much battery power as in previous os versions.

Leaving the GPS on does not have any hit on the battery. Its not actively getting your position unless you open an app that uses it.

Thanks for the info all , but I wasn't concerned about the battery life.
