Good point... when I was making pictures in previous ROMs that were giving apparently good coordinates (like HH3), I assumed uploading would not be an issue, as I had done that a lot with my previous PDA (Eten X800), to picasaweb.com (from google)... but if I try now with pictures I had taken when I had HH3... it does indeed NOT work either!!!  

How come ETEN (who are not known for their quality of software) get this sorted out right from the beginning, but not a much bigger company as Samsung, even after several ROM releases??? It can't be that difficult guys, come on!

Hi MA,

How did you solve your problem with geotagging? When I took a photo it shows long=0 lat=0 and alt=0 despite Im sure gps has a fix on camera.

Cheers,

The latest ROMs have geotagging working fine... if you upload such a picture to picasaweb or similar, it will pinpoint the position where it was taken!

Ahhhh, G4. Those earlier ROMs will always show a satt icon. If the gps has a fix, then the icon is white, otherwise greyish.
