LOL, yeah I understand. I don't have it anymore but this is like an itch I can't scratch. I wish I could crack the code on what triggers it to switch. If it was once every 3 months, ok I can deal with it, it's actually pretty simple to fix. But SOMETHING is triggering it more frequently and that's the "itch I can't scratch."

If I knew WHAT was triggering it, then maybe I could come up with a strategy to deal with it. (Maybe at least get it on the "once every three months" schedule. ) The more I think about it, the more I'm inclined to think it's using my location services on my phone even when it's supposedly off. Because if that's the case, that actually would explain a lot as I'm frequently out of my current geographic viewing area.
