   If you search the Android newsgroups for "Tutorial", you'll see that I have   
   spent hundreds (if not thousands) of hours trying to help people like you.   
       
      
   You'll see similar articles if you search XDA Developers for my tutorials.   
       
      
   They are some of the best-written most-detailed Android tutorials on the   
   planet (if I do say so myself). :)   
      
   I write them because I'm one out of a million in that I truly care that   
   people can do what I can do - so I try to teach them (and learn from them).   
      
   I'm nothing like your average poster to Usenet... I'm not here for   
   amusement but to learn from others and to teach them what I can do.   
      
   And I learn from others, like Andy Burns, who know more than I ever will.   
      
   BTW, I'm working on a tutorial as we speak where these are my one-tap   
   shortcuts to turn all the Google invasive privacy features on/off.   
       
      
   Note you must turn most of them on to use Google Maps - but you can   
   immediately turn them off when you're done with using Google Maps.   
      
   And please do note that you can _easily_ get online real-time traffic   
   without ever turning ANY of those location-related radios on!!!!!   
     *Most people don't know that tidbit!!!!!*   
      
   See my tutorial on how to get real-time online traffic without giving away   
   your privacy - as routing needs your location - but traffic never does!
