Recently I had purchased the Samsung Galaxy 3 (i5800) phone running Android 2.1. One of the major issues faced on Samsung Galaxy 3 was the GPS issue. The phone was unable to locate the position though GPS and always gave an error “your location is temporarily unavailable”. This was clearly the issue with Samsung Galaxy 3 GPS.
