gps not working in stock froyo

---

hey guyz i just got a galaxy s and using stock rom froyo 2.2 and i am a noob, and today i tried using my gps but it is not working and i have also installed a gps test application from the market but that is also not working and on the maps it is keep on saying, "your current location is temporarily unavailable", i was in my university so i thought that its because of the place, so i came home, but still the gps is not working, i tried the *#*#3214789650#*#* solution but still no use, please help me

Goofy name, but try "GPS AIDS" from the market and see if that helps at all...

Or, it might need the connectors for the gps aerial bending slightly, as they are made of a weak metal, and get pressed in over time in. There are several threads about it.

I did the fix on mine, and the gps works brilliantly now!

Hope this helps
