Remove the file /etc/freesmartphone/persist/ogpsd.pickle then, restart frameword or just reboot. (Restarting frameworkd sometimes cause trouble with the phone side instead). ogpsd.pickle is where gps information is saved in order to speed up the next activation of the gps unit. It goes bad sometimes, particularly after starting a newly flashed SHR unstable. If this file goes bad enough, you wont get a fix - ever! Deleting the file forces the gps to "cold start", which may take an extra minute or two. But it works reliably. When you stop using the gps unit, a new ogpsd.pickle file is created - this time with good data.
