Hi Guys,

A little help please if you could.

I use Runkeeper on my phone phone and use gps to track my runs, while running I have the screen lcoked and all is fine.

However, very recently for some reason, when I lock the screen GPS turns off. In Location Service I have turned on Access to my locations which has always been turned on.

Any ideas on whats happened and how to fix this?

FYI, I ahve a Galaxy S4 mini running Android 4.2.2

Cheers

David
