Issues with gps since firmware update

Hi,
Since the update firmware few weeks ago my gps is very slow locking. Sometimes it gets stuck and the only way to get it to work is to reboot the phone.
Is there any fix?
Thanks

Try a data factory reset in settings/backup and restore. If that doesn`t help flash your rom from www.sammobile.com with Odin 3.04. I personaly hate OTA`s, flashing a full rom makes the device function much better.
I havent had any problems with the gps but then again I dont use the gps hardly at all

Can you get to stock recovery and do a factory reset? If you really screwed up your EFS folder, and you don't have a backup of it, you won't be able to make calls ever again, and you IMEI number is gone. You'll have a 5.7 inch media player.
In such cases, a Samsung Service Center trip might be your only option.

Download this put in AP/PDA in odin then flash.
Just to note to people replying in this thread, this guy already has a thread open about this and has tried all the script fix tricks.

You can also search for 4.3 ROMs and update them over OTA or Kies after flash.

Sorry, my fault, that just works for 4.3 to 4.2.2.
Are you able to boot in download mode?
If you can you are able to emergency recover your phone with kies.
