I haven't used my GPS in a while but I tried it recently and it's not working for me. I am rooted and running Purity 2.5 on the 7.7.893 OTA. Want to confirm if anyone else is having the same issue with the same Rom and OTA. I know it was working several Roms ago. Maybe mine didn't take it properly. Will consider doing a full wipe and restore of the Rom but I need to confirm if it's only me.

stop makin sense =P
I can't offer much in the ways of advice, all I can say is I have been running Purity Rom for awhile now and although I dont like it much (going back to liberty soon) my GPS has never given me problems. I assume you've already tried all the turning off/turning back on tricks, rebooting etc. I think you're wipe/retry idea is probably going to end up being your best option.
LOL dammit...
Download the free GPS Status from the market. Turn on the gps and start the app. It helps immensely in getting the initial satellite lock.
