GPS is never completely disabled, in fact we will remove that toggle in
settings entirely as its misleading. GPS is enabled and disabled as
required. The user can control whether location detection is enabled or
not, and whether to use the AGPS services from Here.

I cannot think of any reason why the update would impact uNav other than
perhaps a regression in location service itself.
