GPS stays on continously

[xtrepx]

When denying the location through XPrivacy the GPS stays on continously, showing always the GPS icon and making the battery drain. The only solution is to close the application (remove it from background) but that's not a real solution. If I allow the location, then after 4-5 seconds the GPS is no longer used and the icon is gone.
Attached you have the logcat debug. The 1st one is when Location is allowed, while the 2nd one is with the problem - location denied, GPS always on.

Application ID to look for 10070
Attached also a screenshot of about window.

Please post a screenshot of the XPrivacy about too.

Done

Could you please install this version of XPrivacy:
https://crowd.xprivacy.eu/XPrivacy_3.5.9proxy.apk

and capture two new logcats using this command:

adb logcat | grep proxy.*uid=10070

Also, please post a link to the application you are testing with.

Example output:

adb logcat | grep proxy.*uid=10070
I/XPrivacy/XLocationManager(  832): proxyLocationListener uid=10070
I/XPrivacy/XLocationManager(  832): proxyLocationListener uid=10070
I/XPrivacy/XLocationManager(  832): proxyLocationListener uid=10070
I/XPrivacy/XLocationManager(  832): unproxyLocationListener uid=10070

I like to know if unproxyLocationListener is missing in different scenarios.
Also try to close the application (both in a normal way or forced, for example using the XPrivacy kill menu)

With Location allowed:

05212: proxyLocationListener uid=10070
06538: proxyLocationListener uid=10070
07164: proxyLocationListener uid=10070
06538: unproxyLocationListener uid=10070
07164: unproxyLocationListener uid=10070

With Location denied:

14640: proxyLocationListener uid=10070
15966: proxyLocationListener uid=10070
16592: proxyLocationListener uid=10070
15966: unproxyLocationListener uid=10070
16592: unproxyLocationListener uid=10070

Application closed normally and forced. However, behavior is the same as before the update. Application link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shazam.android

After unproxyLocationListener the GPS should go off, isn't that the case?

[xtrepx]

Unfortunately no. I'll try to record so that you can see the behavior.

I could reproduce this issue in compatibility mode (only).
After several hours of debugging I found a solution.
Could you please check if this version solves the problem and if fake locations are still working?

I really appreciate your help. Indeed with this version the bug is fixed. Also the fake location is working fine.

Thanks for reporting back.

I will release this version as a new beta release to make sure there are no side effects.
