I have a Samsung Galaxy Apollo that I have bought only a few days ago. Its a great phone for the price and the Google Android system is great!
However, I have been having problems with the GPS system. When I was at home the first day I bought the phone I was able to go onto google maps and it was able to track me walking in my house. Now the gps doesn't seem to work properly at all. I had disabled the mobile internet and I thought that this might have been restricting the GPS functionality so I turned it on again. The GPS works when it has A-GPS but only sometimes and its not very accurate.
I have tried using GPS status but it keeps loading and I can never find any information about available satellites. As for my location I am in a city but not too close to any tall buildings.
Does the phone need mobile internet as well as GPS to find the location? What else can I try to get the GPS working?
