Sprint Nav Constantly Rearing Its Head

I know a number of us have had problems with Messaging draining the phone's resources, but how about Sprint Navigation? I kid you not, I have killed that app three times in the last hour. It's not a widget on one of my screens, nor have I even used it once. I'm opening the app now to see if there's something I can fix, but I'm curious if anyone else has this happen frequently, too.
 
Never happened to me either. I am courious if you have installed a program that may use the GPS and keeps calling the application. Does it do it after you do a soft reset and before you actually use Sprint Nav?

Have you tried a hard reset?
 
It always does it after a soft reset. I did a hard reset a few days ago when my screen started wigging out, which I attributed to not using the charger the phone came with. Not sure if I have a program that accesses GPS, but I'll go through and check. I love using Sprint Nav, I just don't like when it eats up my phone's processing and battery powers, which seems to be par for the course with this thing right now.
 
I do have a number of apps that can access GPS, but I haven't noticed any that I open on a consistent basis that would start it up. I just disabled GPS in the settings to see if that helps. Perhaps that was a no-brainer.

However, I also noticed that Voice Dialer and something titled com.coremobility.app.vnotes also start up without me opening them.
 
I have this issue too with Sprint Nav constantly opening itself for no apparent reason. I just installed the update and will have to test it.
