Stupid to ask but have you tried calling Sprint and asking them if there is anything they can do in their end? On my old Note 2 I had your issue, called them and saw a pretty good improvement. Worth 20 minutes on the phone, if not customer chat.

I was using Sprint's stock Touch Wiz, and then i went and tried several ROMs that simply wouldn't work with GPS at all. No satellites whatsoever. I loved all the custom ROM's but without GPS, i couldn't deal with it. I use it regularly. I stumbled across another forum somewhere on the other side of the internet about a different phone and a different ROM and found that they had to go back to a stock rom, turn on GPS, and then go from there. So I went back to stock Touch Wiz and tried it out. And it worked!

1) I used this to get back to stock android:

2) And I used Flashify app to get TWRP on my Note 3

3) Right now I'm using Gummy ROM. Silly name. Great ROM. I haven't tried any other ROMs to check GPS yet... But I think it would work.
