It does seem to be WiFi related. But if I have to remember to disable the WiFi whenever I want to do some GPS tracking - and if I forget, I basically get random garbage - that pushes it well into "no bloody use" for me.

Surely there is an app for that? Android has plenty of apps that will automatically turn on/off your wifi based on various criteria, such as your location (I always turn it off as soon as I'm 50 yards away from home or from the office).

That's a feature, not a bug ;)

Uh, no, I'm pretty sure that's a bug. Unless you literally want to consider inaccurate tracking a feature.
