Locationservice Indicator stays "on"

Question

I have a created a small app which uses location services on the iPhone. All works well, except the fact, that sometimes, the small arrow in the info-bar stays active even if I explicitly kill the app. I use the background mode for locationservices, thus the appDelegate methods applicationWillResignActive, applicationDidEnterBackground, applicationWillEnterForeground and applicationDidBecomeActive are implemented but do not touch the location services (well - I need them in background mode).

In that configuration applicationWillTerminate is never called; I implemented all the cleanup cleanup as stopUpdatingLocation in dealloc, as I did not find any other place appropriate for this. But still - the indicator stays on.

Any ideas?

Ok, problem solved. The indicator will stay on until a new location is found. Then if everything else is correct, the indicator turns off.
