Exclamation BB Storm - Google Maps - ePic

Hello all, I have a Blackberry storm 9530, my provider is Bell Canada. Before the new OS Google Maps was able to access GPS sometimes saying that the GPS was unavailable and some other times working.

Since the new OS 5.0.0.419 Google maps doesn't even try to use the GPS and its not even in the permissions. BB maps still works good and Poynt still works good.. Poynt can even show my exact position using google maps but google maps has no ideal what's going on, its giving me a position within 4600m and its dancing all over the place.

I tried running BB maps in the background and still nothing and i Also tried downloading older versions of Google maps and still nothing... Is anyone else getting this? and does anyone know how to fix this?

This has always been the case for me. Worked fine on my Curve but has never worked on my Storm.
