I haven't tried that one before. You may be grep-coding ad nausium until you get all the relevant GPS settings to disappear.
Your shortest path may be (not sure) to just disable the hardware and leave the other menus alone. LocationManager should just eliminate the GPS from the list of available location providers. That way, you don't interrupt the functioning of LocationManager. Just going on instinct here ...
