Zergling_man (nprofile…pltp) 夜化 (nprofile…3p6r) nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqymejr08suvgx4vxqly8plyyz8899qlm4jw85c73fvzsy84nas5ss4zjeaa (nprofile…jeaa) "Aeroplane mode" just requests that the mobile chipset goes into a low power mode.
Maybe it keeps transmitting (demonstrating with certainty that it's perfectly safe to blast away with any transmitter on an aeroplane no matter what the regulatory requirements are), but it'll be trivial to just have it listening passively for fresh proprietary malware to execute.
On most devices you cannot turn the GPS chip off - all you can do is request that it goes into a low power mode (on old devices this low power mode would not maintain GPS lock and it takes up to 15 minutes to get precise location lock, but on newer devices GPS lock is maintained no problem and precise location takes seconds to lock).
