Google Maps issue....HELP WANTED!

I've been having this problem for a while. I'm currently running FroYo

which i thought would help but it doesnt. I've ensured that My Location

Services are on but Maps and Earth keep showing my location off the coast

of Jamaica when i'm actually in Antigua. I've travelled to numerous

countries and i'm always still in Jamiaca when running from cell towers. I

hardly ever get a satellite fix, i only get it using 'GPS Status' and it

still works like 1 in every 20 tries, but when i do get a fix it is

accurate. My latitude privacy setting is set to "detect location," my GPS

and Cell tower location are on so i dont know why i'm always near Jamaica.

When i use the third party app "Anntenna" it shows the cell towers i'm

connected to and gives me a near accurate location, but maps just does not

show me anywhere near where i am and sometime it just says "your current

location is temporarily unavailable." Is there something i can do to test

that the hardware is functioning as it supposed to? idk what else to do

I've tried: Clearing the maps data cache, uninstalling and reinstalling,

powering off, hard reseting, switching privacy setting in Latitude and

nothing seems to work..someone help!
