anyone having the same issue?
any fix for it?
Thanx
This has been happening to me every time i flash since the Feb 4th roms. I would let Google maps run even longer with no luck. Also, QuickGPS would make no difference at all. Although i can't explain why, this is what solves the prob for me every time:

Turn Location on.
Turn AGPS on.
open start/GPS/HTC GPSTool. Set the baud rate to 115200, click Open Port, click Start Test.

I have to let it run for about 15 minutes (ends up being 13-16 loops or so). For the first 10 minutes or so i will get no locks. After about 10 minutes or so i start to lock on to stelites. After it locks on 5 or 6, i click stop test.

After doing this i never have to do it again until i flash. It has just become part of the flashing routine for me. After doing the above Google Maps will lock on 6 or 7 satelites within a few seconds and all other GPS/Weather apps work great.

Hope this helps.
