    It also automatically turns the speakerphone on (and sometimes randomly while you're on a call even after manually switching it off!) so you get an ear full of full volume speaker phone. OUCH!

    And apart from the locations service running constantly, which I don't want in any case - to do this, it requires access to GPS satellites - otherwise it constantly comes up with the "error" message and asking you to turn on GPS access, every time you touch your phone.

    So just ignoring the problem doesn't help - and turning on access to GPS satellites KILLS your battery very quickly.

    The phone is essentially useless in its current state. Its driving me up the wall because I use my phone for business all day and I don't have a backup phone.

    If you enable Settings > Applications > Development > Stop app via long-press you can kill Google Maps by long-pressing the back button when exiting. That will kill com.google.android.apps.maps:NetworkLocationServic e too.
