Sounds like you're app is going into the background and still using CLLocation. You can stop CLLOcationManager when you receive notification that you're app is resigning active, that's the best way. Then resume when it becomes active. The answer in this question show how to do that here

[EDIT] When your app goes into the background or resigns active for any reason (ie: phone call) you should stop location services at that time. You need to subscribe to the notifications and provide a method to stop and start location services, something like this:

-(void)appDidBecomeActiveNotif:(NSNotification*)notif
{
    [locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
}

-(void)appWillResignActiveNotif:(NSNotification*)notif
{
    [locationManager stopUpdatingLocation];
}

-(void)viewDidLoad
{
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(appDidBecomeActiveNotif:) name:UIApplicationDidBecomeActiveNotification object:nil];         
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(appWillResignActiveNotif:) name:UIApplicationWillResignActiveNotification object:nil]; 
}

-(void)dealloc
{
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self];
    [super dealloc];
}
