First thing I would try is download the app faster fix from the market. Open it and set your region and see if that helps. If not post in the roms thread to see if others have had a similar issue.

At one point were you ever on a android 4.2 ROM then flashed an android 4.1 ROM?

First check to see if the GPS icon is in the toolbar on top when you have maps running, if so then you can try resetting google frameworks and reinstalling maps. If not it's a little deeper problem and you'll need to unroot your phone and install a stock ROM using ODIN. I just went through this, there's a good tutorial on this site just do a search. Once you do that then you can flash root 66 to get your root back and then install whatever rom you want, GPS should be fixed. Interestingly I had the same problem after flashing Wicked so there maybe something in there that's breaking the GPS.

Not sure what he means by resetting the framework??? But go into settings>applications and find Google maps and clear data and cache and see if that helps. Also did you try the app I suggested it really helps

Hmmm.... I see what you mean. My only suggestion is to go and Odin back.....

Get the files and procedures on using Odin from here :
