I have had my phone replaced by sprint, I've tried every fix suggested. I've followed devs working on fixing it but can't get it. I'm no dev but I found an unconventional workaround:

I bought a Bluetooth GPS from TomTom for $20 after shipping on Amazon, paired it with the Bluetooth GPS app on the market and allowed mock locations in the system settings. Bingo. It was a hardware problem and now my GPS works perfectly, even though its external.

That's strange , because I NEVER EVER experienced GPS issues.
