08-13-2012 08:21 AMI guess I should have been a bit more clear, when I said stock I meant what Samsung ships with the Galaxy S3 which is slightly different than what Google ships with ICS. Originally Posted by Rageboardr

08-13-2012 12:43 PMDid you try what Rageboardr said? Go to that menu in your screen shot and scroll down to the bottom. There are several more settings. The third option from the bottom is "GPS tag." You can turn it off and on there. Originally Posted by mntgoat

08-13-2012 02:20 PMYeap, thank you all for the help. I'm used to programming forums where the first response always is "why do you want to do that?" Originally Posted by Rageboardr
