I've noticed some days my gps will come on and stay on I can use the widget and settings but ut the little icon stays in the top bar and is a.noticeable battery drain sometimes a simple reboot turns it off but usually takes a battery pull

Sounds like you may have a app open in the background that has permission to track location and this will make the gps stay active more often, you can get a task killer and go through and close one app at a time until the gps icon goes off or you cn just go into Settings / Location and Security and disable the GPS all together.

Replacement device may resolve overheating but the other issues you reported sounds like software no hardware.
