Hi,

I just switched back from a 4S to a 4 and restored the backup. I noticed that in location services there's a blank field most likely where Siri was.
Image attached below.
Anyone know how I might be able to remove it?

Honestly, I have no idea. But whatever it is, it is using your location or has recently. Hopefully that narrows it down for you as the other ones you can see / should know that you have used your location recently to help you do a process of elimination.

It was Siri, I used it on the 4S before I went to the 4.
I am looking to remove that entry.

Ah, try turning Siri off then on.
EDIT: Meaning: Settings -> General -> Siri and disable then enable after it's been cleared from location services.

Again, I'm no longer on a 4S, I backed up my 4S and restored it to a 4 (which does not have Siri)
 
Oh, my bad. Haha. I thought you said you went from the iPhone 4 to the iPhone 4S but used Siri then restored from your iPhone 4 backup.

What you need to do is go to your computer, sync everything across that you don't want to lose. Then restore and set up as a new device. There is no other way around it I believe.
 
Looks like I fixed it.
I reset ALL settings and when it asked if I wanted location services enabled, I chose no.
Now each time I start an app, it asks for permission, but I no longer have that blank field :cool:
