I2C bus error after sending standby cmd to GPS

[fsergeys]

I'm trying to put the GPS in standby mode using the PMTK command specified in the documentations, but everytime the command is executed: I get an I2C bus error, which I don't understand why.
Wipy3.0
Pytrack:

• hw_version 3
• fw_version 8
• product_id 61459
• firmware: v0.0.8

Is this a bug? Anybody else who experienced the same problem?

def gpsStandby(self):
        print('Sending standby cmd to gps...')
        standby = "$PMTK161,0*28\r\n"
        self.i2c.writeto(GPS_I2CADDR, standby)
        time.sleep(0.2)

Once the GPS module goes into standby the i2c stops working, you can no longer wake it up via i2c, all you can do is a reset via the pytracks deep sleep function.
