    Getting invalid GPS signal for Samsung Omnia i910

    I am getting -1E-08,-1E-08 as Lat/Long most of the times for Omnia i910. Say 4 our of 10 times. And this location is no where near to my place. And think its not even a valid GPS location. Wonder if this the GPS receiver of the phone problem or anything else.
    Can we do something to rectify it?

    Is that an Easting/Northing GPS string?

      I am not sure about that. For other times iam getting good Lat/Long co-ordinates as 37.55567853,-122.29018033, sometimes this mobile gives the above invalid location. In G-maps, though it shows a location for it. But on seeing its values as -1E-08 seems to be invalid.

          More then one type of GPS? Maybe one positioning system sends lat/long and another sends something different?

            Its only the default GPS system of the phone which is getting the locations. No separate system is there on phone to give Gps positions.
