When i tried out a sample program in phonegap geolocation. I am getting the latitude and longitude of my current location without internet or GPS in my samsung pop. I don't know how it is getting the coordinates, altitude and timestamp of the current location when the wifi and gps in my device is DISABLED. Kindly help me..

You are getting the coordinates from web browser's GeoLocation API.
