Really need to fix my GPS...

So, is it possible to fix the GPS for the Epic 4G yet? Damn Samsung...

It's causing my phone to lock up multiple times a day - locks up Googlemaps, locks up Yelp, locks up anything else using GPS, and of course it craps out in the middle of driving and requires a complete reboot. I suspect it is also responsible for some hard locks of the entire OS that requires me to remove the back cover and take out the battery to reboot the thing.

This is my first time using Android and I'm completely and utterly confused about everything. I'm on stock but I've rooted it. That's all I know.
