in thread Use perl to extract GPS coordinates from a cell phone image.

As you say, perhaps the configuration is defaulting to not embedding GPS data. Which is sensible enough. IIRC there was a bug existing since at least 2.3 in which GPS data could be corrupted. 2.3 is fairly old, it may be worth while investigating the possability of running a third party ROM on your phone. I've used Cyanogenmod (or derivatives) for years on 2 different handsets.

Update: example of the bug
