Refresh rate for GPS - what's acceptable?
<p>I'm trying to figure out a refresh rate to use for my GPS location listener to get around a bug on the HTC Hero where the GPS icon won't remove itself off the notification bar.</p>

<p><a href="http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse%5Fthread/thread/e687b3bfa9146f31/7fa59b0108bbdf89?lnk=gst&amp;q=gps#7fa59b0108bbdf89" rel="nofollow">http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse%5Fthread/thread/e687b3bfa9146f31/7fa59b0108bbdf89?lnk=gst&amp;q=gps#7fa59b0108bbdf89</a></p>

<p>Does anyone here have any suggestions? For my app, I'd normally run with a refresh rate of 5 minutes. But when I close the app, and de-register my listeners, the GPS icon sometimes still stays on the notification bar. Does anyone have an HTC Hero and can confirm this?</p>

<p>The link above suggests that using a refresh rate of under 35 seconds fixes the problem, but not sure if that's true.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>
