Becky Gibson commented on CB-1603:
----------------------------------

Thanks for the details.  Yeah, our template sets the target to iOS 4.2 - I'm surprised xcode 4.5 doesn't error.  Need to see if we can make the target conditional on the Xcode version.

> Applications targeted for iPhone (iOS 4.2+) using Cordova 2.0 and developed in XCode 4.5 automatically turn on Compass / Geolocation. User is never asked if they want to reveal their location to the app, so it's probably the Compass plugin kicking in.
> What we see is the compass arrow on the right-hand top side of iPhone screen (status bar). When the application closes, arrow disappears.
> This is an issue for us, as it drains considerably more battery than version running on iOS 5.1, where this problem does not exist.
> We have tried to remove all - Location, Compass and GeoLocation plugins from the Cordova.plist to no avail.
