Is there any way in BB 10 to autostart an aplication at phone startup ? And if it is, is it possible to reamin in background while doing background processing like cheking gps location or wifi status? Thank you in advance.

You cannot currently run as a headless app in the background (ie, you need a UI), or autostart on device boot.

If the user has launched your app, it can request to still run when not in the foreground. It can also be launched through the push and invocation framework.

As of BlackBerry 10.2 you can do this using Headless Apps. More information here: https://developer.blackberry.com/native/documentation/cascades/device_platform/headless_apps/
