I dont know if this is the BEST WAY... but is working !!!
Code:
//-----------------------------------------------------------
#include <PCD8544.h>
#include <TinyGPS.h>
#include <NewSoftSerial.h>
// A custom glyph (a smiley)...
//static const byte glyph[] = { B00010000, B00110100, B00110000, B00110100, B00010000 };
static PCD8544 lcd;
//------------------------------------------------------------
unsigned long fix_age;
NewSoftSerial GPS(2,8);
TinyGPS gps;
void gpsdump(TinyGPS &gps);
bool feedgps();
void getGPS();
long lat, lon;
float LAT, LON;
void setup(){
//------------------------------------------------------------
// PCD8544-compatible displays may have a different resolution...
lcd.begin(84, 48);
// Add the smiley to position "0" of the ASCII table...
// lcd.createChar(0, glyph);
//------------------------------------------------------------
GPS.begin(9600);
// Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop(){
long lat, lon;
unsigned long fix_age, time, date, speed, course;
unsigned long chars;
unsigned short sentences, failed_checksum;
// retrieves +/- lat/long in 100000ths of a degree
gps.get_position(&lat, &lon, &fix_age);
// time in hh:mm:ss, date in dd/mm/yy
/*gps.get_datetime(&date, &time, &fix_age);
year = date % 100;
month = (date / 100) % 100;
day = date / 10000;

getGPS();
// Serial.print("Latitude : ");

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Just to show the program is alive...

delay(500);
// counter++;
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------
}
void getGPS(){

unsigned long start = millis();
// Every 1 seconds we print an update
while (millis() - start < 1000)

Hmmm.. i don't remember who originally wrote the two part of codes...sorry..#include <PCD8544.h>
#include <TinyGPS.h>

//------------------------------------------------------------
// PCD8544-compatible displays may have a different resolution...

but one thing is sure...its NOT MINE !!!
