Hi, This is a known bug on some devices, eg Nexus One & Motorola Xoom see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=15500
I get around it by using external bluetooth GPS devices. In 'GPS Test' they might be reverse engineering the 'Location & related classes' details back into NMEA strings, but you would have to ask them...
