GPS toggle for Sailfish. It is a cli tool that can switch on and off the location permission and the power from gps chip.

Version 0.0.3 and later has uid 0 so it runs with root rights! No root needed. Keep in mind that this a security issue!

Since version 0.1.0 you can change the location method.

You need to have root rights to run gpstoggle. Without parameters it prints the current status.

Options:

--help

location=0 or location=1 [switch location permission off or on]

power=0 or power=1 [switch gps chip power off or on]

lm=2 [sets the location method to DeviceOnlyMode]
