Using Geolocation API in phone gap

I am currently developing a Phonegap application for Google summer of Code 2012. I encountered some problems when using it and this is how I corrected them. Location not available- In android emulator does not automatically get the location. So we have to send a moc location to the emulator using DDMS perspective in eclipse. Phonegap documentation says to use the below method to get location. navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(onGeoSuccess,onGeoError); But this gave me an error with error code 2 unable to start geolocation service. I corrected it using the below method. navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(onGeoSuccess,onGeoError,{ enableHighAccuracy: true }); Note - This is only for testing in the emulator.
