Answer 1

I had the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. I search hours for a solution and nothing helped. To fix issues try following:

Go to Location settings and enable:

1.Use Wireless networks 2.Use GPS satellites

wait for GPS location fix

After this, geocoder server responded. Even when I disabled wireless and GPS Location, server was working. I think geocoder can only be used if you share your location with Google.
