Help gps not working

Up until today, if i hit the gps tab in the notification bar i always got the gps sign thing show up on the left of the bar, flashing till it got a signal then solid.
Today i noticed it simply isn't working. Everything says its on but just got no gps. It isn't even looking for a signal. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Try installing GPS Status & Toolbox from the Play Store and see if you can pick up any sat's.

Cheers, yeah, its saying I'm picking up fine. Just when i open apps or hit the gps switch it isn't coming on. Only seems too come on if i run ones of the gps testers from the store.

The good news is that your GPS antenna is obviously OK. Are you getting a reasonable fix in Google Maps?
