I think my issue with the GPS started to appear after 4.1.2 update from T-Mobile.

Here it goes, if I open up my Google Maps, it will normally locate and indicate my current position on the map.
However, after the 4.1.2 update, it acts very strange like this :

1. Locates my current location
2. then within a few seconds later, it indicates to a position where I was in previously (idk maybe 10mins ago, 30mins ago, even few hours ago), then the GPS gets locked in
3. after few seconds later (10 seconds at max), the GPS corrects itself to my actual current location and locks.

this issue is driving me nuts. this causes my camera app to fail frequently. I'm using GPS tag on my every photo, whenever I take pictures.

Does anybody suffered similar behavior on their phones?? or has any solution??

I tried couple of things, like turning off wifi and testing it, but it didn't work.
