I suggest to have an "Exit" item added to the "More" menu. This would give the 
user a clear and unambiguous termination of the program. While you're at it you 
might want to add a "save" dialog if there is an unsaved track in memory when 
the user wants to terminate the progam.

Same problem here:. Open GPS Tracker service continues running after tracking 
has been stopped, and drains the battery until the phone is rebooted or the 
service is manually terminated.
