Kostya, Is it just not able to get a fix or does your phone display become completely black? If it just is not getting a fix then yes we know of that issue.

It's sort of bizarre. -Greg On Dec 8, 11:10 am, Kostya Vasilyev <kmans...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have a Samsung Galaxy S (retail European version), and can confirm this. > > GPS only works immediately after it's been restarted by switching it > off/on in phone settings. > > After a while (can't give exact duration, but somewhere between a few > hours and a few days) it stops working.
